A plague that can kill you in 24 hours is rapidly spreading in Russia right now but don't worry folks, Donald Trump eliminated the Directorate for Global Health Security and Biodefense, and Elon Musk defunded the CDC

Can someone explain the plan for just magically making the teachers better. Fine you smash the unions, fire the bad ones who don’t make the benchmarks, institute rigorous standards for improvement. Where is the giant line of teachers who are going to fill in?

This speech is incredible, and it highlights what most of us have been saying all along
Iran is fighting for all humanity, while Israel and the USA fight against it
Iran President Pezeshkian at the UN:
"Those who are terrorists and train terrorists tell us that we are terrorists."
"For two hundred years, Iran has not attacked any country. For two hundred years, we have always defended ourselves."
"They bombed and killed these children, with weapons supplied by America and Israel. They were guilty of nothing. They had committed no crime."
"In Gaza, they murdered more than eighty thousand innocent people."
"Then they say others are terrorists, these are the ones causing instability -- are we the ones causing instability?"
"Anyone they want to destroy, they label a terrorist."
"Palestine remains a wound on the body of the conscience of the international community, and Gaza remains a symbol of the failure of international mechanisms to prevent the suffering of civilians."
"Israel murders thousands of people in Gaza every week. But Iran was bombed while at the negotiating table."
"Yet Israel receives billions of dollars in free weapons as a reward, and it is licensed to bomb any capital it wishes."
"The nuclear bombs are in Israel, but the inspectors are in Iran. Israel kills, yet Iran is sanctioned, and this is a tragedy that would make anyone you tell laugh."
"We must not build a world in which military power replaces legitimacy, sanctions replace diplomacy, terror replaces politics, and war replaces dialogue."
"We have found our answer. We need power. Because a nation that cannot defend itself, they crush it in this world."
"Let him know: the Iranian nation, in the face of force, will not bow its head, and will make the aggressors regret it."

An iconic photo setting the stage for a terrifying 21st century.
Beaming beside the man who violently assaulted her country and abducted its president and his wife, Delcy signals enthusiastic consent for the Donroe Doctrine and the entire Western imperial ethos of might makes right.
This is a green light for the kidnapping of presidents, the assassination of leaders in their offices, and the plunder of resources.
Chavez inspired millions across the globe by standing for international law and against the Iraq war at the UN podium. Delcy may sincerely believe she is defending her nation’s interests, but with this single twisted photo op, she has let the world down.

A single Russian missile hitting Berlin, London or Washington would trigger a response so overwhelming that humanity would be lucky to emerge from it at all. And yet munitions manufactured and guided by NATO powers are now routinely hitting Moscow. With no democratic legitimacy — they hold favourability ratings of 15-40% in countries that have no real say on questions of war and peace — Europe’s ruling elites openly state their aim of dismembering Russia. To give their intentions teeth, they have embarked on an armament drive that now exceeds the annualised increases in military spending in the years immediately preceding the First World War. Even the tensest moments of the Cold War, which we now know put us seconds away from annihilation, provide no precedent for the scale of the folly unfolding today. Since there is no meaningful anti-war movement in Europe, we have reached the incredible point where our main barrier to nuclear annihilation is the thinning patience of the leadership in the Kremlin. I don’t think we have ever faced a situation so brittle and been so deeply unprepared to confront it.

“We can’t shut it down. We can’t have a general strike”
Welp the alternative is what we’ll face now
Everything shuts down anyway because of the massive corruption we never addressed
& there’s no government or infrastructure in place to help people at the scale necessary
