US is the only nation to vote NO for women's and girls' rights at annual UN resolution.

Saudi Arabia, DRC, Egypt, Mali, Mauritania abstained.

The most horrible abusive behavior on Earth is being broadcast to small villages around world so low paid AI workers can analyze & label every frame of videos. Workers are getting severe PTSD. How will this affect the cultures of small villages when constant images of severe abuse are introduced?

Does anyone know how many people on Earth are working to train, moderate, and pretend they are AI chatpots for Pentagon contractors Microsoft, Anthropic, Grok, Amazon, OpenAI, Google, Palantir, Oracle?

Epstein's friend Joi Ito has been embraced at highest levels in Japan, & runs a school for neurodivergent children in Tokyo. 💔 @japantimes.co.jp

Haitian PM slammed for signing millions in foreign contracts that ‘undermine sovereignty’ Opaque government contracts drafted under Prime Minister Alix Didier Fils-Aimé could transfer state powers to foreign firms and cost Haiti billions, a Haitian human rights group and others say.

Erik Prince's Windward Wyoming LLC has one year $52 Mil contract to support Haitian National Police ($35.5M paid). An agreement to modernize border w/UAE based Evergreen/Ense Group is linked to Prince - via Haitian Times & Fondasyon Je Klere (FJKL) report

When we say the Citizens United ruling put a price tag on our democracy, this is what we mean.

White House must reveal and resolve Jared Kushner's financial conflicts of interest - CREW | Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington Jared Kushner must file his legally required public financial disclosure report within 30 days of his appointment as Special Envoy for Peace.

NEW: Jared Kushner has been involved in the most serious foreign policy and national security issues but has so far not been subject to federal ethics rules.

We sent a letter urging the White House to swiftly collect and review Kushner's public financial disclosure report.

The U.S. Built a Blueprint to Avoid Civilian War Casualties. Trump Officials Scrapped It. The Pentagon dismantled its civilian protection mission as Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth made “lethality” a top priority and the Trump administration reorganized national security around two principl...

NEW: A recently developed Defense Department program was meant to reduce civilian harm during military operations.

But months before the Iran war, the mission was dissolved as Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth made “lethality” a top priority.

So it turns out Epstein was also being investigated by Deutschebank at this time. Stephen Feinberg is now helping Trump & Kushner lead an unprovoked war on Iran, committing crimes against humanity, again killing school children. He is in Epstein files related to money laundering involving Kushner.

Those in US govt/tech/business/academia doing business/SA/protecting Epstein and/or business w MBS (Kushner; #2 at Pentagon Stephen Feinberg via Tier One Group, owned by his private company Cerberus; etc.) do not believe in protecting the human rights of women and girls. #StandUpForHumanRights

What are ties between Epstein & #2 at Pentagon, Stephen Feinberg, now in charge of $1 trillion of our tax dollars, now starting an illegal war which he (a military contractor) will profit from, benefiting Netanyahu, harming people throughout Mideast & US?
Feinberg owned largest gun company in US...

In the 1920s, there was an enormous Klan-aligned caucus in the House of Representatives that passed an immigration restriction bill designed to keep out Catholics and Jews because they supposedly posed an existential threat to American civilization. 100 years later, here we are.

The entire profession needs to stand united against this.

Hegseth ignored military officials when he slashed offices that limit risk to civilians

ICE agents reveal daily arrest quotas and surveillance app in rare court testimony Under oath, officers said they were told to make eight arrests a day and given special tech to help choose ‘targets’

When a federal judge (finally) put ICE officers under oath, they admitted that they are given daily detention quotas and rely heavily on a Palantir-supplied AI tool to select targets, without warrants and without enough evidence to obtain one. They simply go into neighborhoods and round people up.

🧵 on Manafort, Epstein, Epstein files:

They should ask Paul Manafort, who was transferred to Epstein's prison before 1st suicide attempt, & left before final attempt. They should interview William Mersey who was Manafort's cellmate & Epstein's peer support:

This is HORRIFIC. Pete Hegseth chose to gut offices that prevent accidental civilian deaths.

This is what happens when you put someone entirely unfit in a position of power. It’s time for him to go!

Appeals court rules against Trump administration’s efforts to end protected status for Haitians - The Boston Globe For now, the ruling shields some 45,000 Haitians living in Massachusetts from deportation.

This ruling is a lifeline for our Haitian neighbors who contribute so much to the #MA7 and nation.

I continue to use every legislative tool to support Haitian community members, including pushing for a vote to extend TPS for Haiti and save lives.

An article from The Hill titled: Hawley introduces bill to remove FDA approval for Mifepristone.

Mifepristone isn't dangerous.

It is safe, effective, & FDA-approved.

This bill is just another baseless attempt to restrict millions from accessing essential medication abortion, but we won't let up our fight. Abortion care is health care.

We know Donald Trump & Pete Hegseth act erratically, but their reckless, ignorant tunnel vision cost the lives of school children.

Children whose parents, friends, & loved ones will forever grieve their absence.

They are committing war crimes carelessly & must be stopped.

I was just learning to crawl when LBJ sent 3,500 Marines from the 9th Marine Expeditionary Brigade to Vietnam in March 1965. I was in 5th grade by the time that war finally ended.

No Quarter, saying combatants will not be taken prisoner but executed, is a war crime. "It is especially forbidden to declare that no quarter will be given."
