“I want to try and get to heaven, if possible,” President Trump told Fox News. Here’s Father James Martin on how any of us get there.

I will never forget Rania Abu Anza, who struggled for 10 years with infertility and shortly before the war gave birth to twins. Just five months later her husband and twins were killed when the home they were sheltering in was bombed by Israel.

My latest: Trump opened the door to ethnic cleansing in Gaza. He needs to close it and stop feeding the Israeli right's dark fantasies of conquest—both in Gaza and the West Bank—or he will never achieve the peace he claims to want. Please read the whole thing. Gift link:
The Worst-Kept Secret of the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict
Trump turned a far-right fantasy—ethnic cleansing in Gaza—into U.S. policy. He needs to reject it.

This deadly attack on the only Catholic church in Gaza shows Israel’s brutal disregard for religious sites and the indiscriminate nature of its genocide.

I just left the Everglades Immigrant Interment Camp. No, I’m not using their ridiculous name. It was a very tough to witness humans in those cages. Every Floridian should be ashamed that our taxpayer money is being used for this.
