For the first time in decades, consensus broke at the UN Commission on the Status of Women. The United States cast the lone “no” vote on a document aimed at improving justice systems for women and girls worldwide. Misogyny is the official policy of the US under Trump.

Visual aid for the people in the back: Pete Hegseth is profiteering off war. Putting service members at risk, decisions getting people killed, and somehow turning it into a money-making venture. Exploitation for profit. And it’s not just Hegseth.
