Russia strikes apartment buildings. Ukraine strikes refineries. Trump is angry at Ukraine and calls for them publicly and privately to stop bombing refineries while saying nothing about Russia killing children.

Benjamin Netanyahu is a war criminal and his government has committed genocide in Gaza. The United States should stop all military assistance to Israel. Saying this is not antisemitic. (I’m Jewish, by the way.)

The USFWS’s own data show that Mexican gray wolves have not yet reached the population threshold needed to change their endangered status. Yet a new executive order has initiated a review that could lead to the species being downlisted or delisted. Read more: ow.ly/xB5s50ZRyiy

The only wolf species in Arizona may risk extinction from premature protections removal
WASHINGTON - In his executive order to review the Mexican gray wolf’s endangerment status, President Donald Trump is bypassing federally required wolf population data that has not yet been met. Conservationists are concerned that removing Mexican wolf protections too soon will result in their population decline.

Ronald Lamola, South Africa’s foreign minister, issued the warning at an event during the UN general assembly called to protect the system of international law from a growing array of threats, including open flouting of its tenets and rulings by Israel.
