Twenty-one people are dead, killed by airstrikes authorized by a "legal opinion", the American public cannot read, targeting organizations on a list Congress cannot see. The administration has not said who might be next.

The pedophile in the WH and his family are grifters from way back. Who can forget they stole from charities meant for veterans, children with cancer and animal rescue.

Today marks the two-year anniversary of the horrific October 7 attack.

As we mourn the 1,218 lives lost that day, let us also keep alive the dream of a lasting peace and a better future for all.

Ceasefire now. Every hostage must come home. And a safer world for everyone.
