“Trump’s tragic transition team seeks to pull US out of WHO ‘on day one’: Swift exit would remove global health body’s main source of funds & damage its ability to tackle emergencies.”
- L Abravanel
Not only will Americans suffer under Trump’s barbarism, he’ll imperil people around the world.
He’ll likely defund other NGOs that help feed & care for millions of people. It’ll be catastrophic. Americans must resist, & demand that the Trump admin fund critical orgs.

spree killing, murder, magdeburg
well, best go rehearse the official "truths" about this spree killing so i don't go looking like a crank at work by saying stuff like the murderer is a mainstream eurabist fantasist who was platformed by the bbc for his views in 2022 or that the german filth let him drive a BMW onto the site they were supposedly protecting.
one last thing before i park this thread. please if you're visiting any crowded spaces such as bus and train terminals, airports, christmas markets, shopping arcades, sports and music stadia, conventions learn to spot the difference between security theatre, and security.
if it looks like all they're doing is a theatrical performance be aware of the lines of attack. most spree killings in UK and EU will be rammings or melee weapons. entry points for ramming attacks are going to be via the entrance provided for emergency and police vehicles, or vulnerable barriers such as temporary block and mesh fencing. you want a solid barrier between you and the entry points.

When asked to vote on who was the country's single "greatest" citizen, Canadians didn't say Wayne Gretzky or some celebrity or even some prime minister - they gave the award to the guy who led the battle for universal single-payer health care. https://buff.ly/3VTTZIb

In 2020, there wasn’t a single voting center in Skid Row. This year, the James Wood Community Center was one of two pop-up locations in the area for unhoused residents to cast their ballots. https://boltsmag.org/los-angeles-county-flex-vote-centers-unhoused-voters/
