Opinion | Hillary Clinton: How to Fix Affordability Our children will pay the price for the president’s indifference.

In @nytopinion.nytimes.com

"American families are raising children now, in an economy where both parents work to make ends meet and child care costs rival rent, in a country with no national paid leave and in a digital world they cannot control," Hillary Clinton writes.

I imagine it takes a LOT of frustration for rank and file soldiers to openly say the Pentagon is lying.

It’s also crystal clear how the US behaves when another country has a resource they want.
Add this to the vast list of reasons that NZ’s upcoming election is the most critical in our history.

Directly next to the Surprise, AZ warehouse recently purchased by DHS which they plan to refit into an IcE concentration camp sits another warehouse operated by Rinchem Company LLC. This 123,516 square foot facility is a hazardous chemical waste storage site.

I understand that some people may have little to no choice in the matter. However, just stating my position from the bottom of the Pacific Ocean. However apparently our fluff brained Minister of Foreign Affairs feels differently and is heading to the US shortly for a friendly chat.

What do you call it when reforms look like a tick list of 'what to avoid' from NZAS? Perhaps something like 'prioritising extraction and capability destruction'?
The same results are occurring in many places around the world. Only the methods differ based on local polities.

I can’t think of any reason I would travel to the US under the current dictatorship.

Cartoon. Title: PROTECTING THE RIGHT TO TAKE THE PISS. A little MP is standing on the ground holding a mallet (MP Kahurangi Carter). She's saying, "Keep those egos grounded!". Around her are 6 hot air balloons. First an upside down Luxon Balloon, 2nd Chris Hipkins as a sausage roll, 3rd Seymour as a clown balloon, 4th Winston Peters as an old grey cigarette - the basket's rope has broken and is holding on the floor ropes are also being held down by only two cables, 5th Marama Davidson and Chlöe Swarbrick cuddling (sorry for the poor caricatures here!) and 6th Debbie Ngarewa-Packer and Rawiri Waititi's heads on top of each other. Debbie has a luxurious red top hat.

Green's MP Kahurangi Carter's parody and satire bill's being debated in parliament.

Separated Bike Lanes Means Safer Streets, Study Says — Streetsblog USA Cities that build protected lanes for cyclists end up with safer roads for people on bikes and people in cars and on foot, a new study of 12 large metropolises revealed Wednesday.

Never forget, a 13-year study found that protected bike-lanes led to a drastic decline in fatalities for all road users.

ALL ROAD USERS.

What about painted bike-lanes? No safety improvement at all.

For sharrows, it’s actually safer to NOT have them.

100+ year old Pasteur Institute in Tehran was a premier infectious disease research institute and vaccine manufacturer

It is a reason Iranian kids like me born in 60s had access to measles vaccines soon after they were developed in the west

Meet Tim.

Tim is full of sh*t.

Tim thinks firefighters run into a scene without assessing it first.

Tim's govt is withholding the funds FENZ needs.

Tim's govt is forcing FENZ to make savings by firing staff.

Don't be like Tim.

[yes, FENZ has serious management issues too]

She's a great cartoonist

There has been shockingly little coverage of the American regime’s demands for access to personal data on New Zealanders.

MPs need to be tabling written PQs and demanding information in question time.

That's awesome. I enjoy watching PBS documentaries such as Frontline, NOVA, Nature, etc. He can't handle the truth, especially the ones criticizing him and his corrupted administration.

It is crazy how few people know this:

Russia now occupies less Ukrainian land than it did one month into the full-scale invasion four years ago

Rats roaming around #Auckland public hospitals #NZ. National's underfunding of public health while shovelling money to fancy private facilities is sickening

But curtains!

They dig a deep, deep hole to pour money into, it seems.

Nothing says peek hypocrisy quite like racist dog murderer Kristi Noem asking for prayers after husband is exposed for dressing in women’s clothing on many occasions whilst she advocates harm against all LGBTQ+ people. I won’t ever waste any prayers on a dreadful person like her.
