*Europe will never discourage African migration while it funds the corruption that drives it.*

*Half of children in poorer countries have lead poisoning, says study.*

The number of people that die from lead poisoning fails to measure the harm it does. Lead exposure damages a child's brain and leads to lower intelligence. The US suffered a decades-long crime wave at the hands of the young men who, due to lead exposure as children, were not smart enough to recognize that crime would lead to consequences that would ruin their lives.

*US supreme court allows delay in redrawing Louisiana map that dilutes Black voters’ power.*

That means that Louisiana's congressional delegation elected in 2024 will be gerrymandered in favor of Republicans.

Republicans only "win" elections nationally with the help of cheating: gerrymandering and voter-suppression.

The Israeli army forced doctors and patients to evacuate al-Shifa hospital. Aside from 32 babies that will be taken to Egyptian hospitals, there is nowhere safe for them to go. I expect the number of Palestinians killed in Gaza far exceeds 12,000. I would not be surprised if it were double or triple that.

* The US is warming faster than the global average and its people are suffering … a disaster every three weeks costing at least $1bn.*
