The $ millions for AI are super-exciting, but let's not forget the millions of people just struggling to survive. Just gave a gift to UNICEF USA for Sudan, Haiti, Gaza and other crises.

Texas plans to execute Ivan Cantu in two days, even though new evidence exonerating him has emerged since his trial.

The foreman of the jury now says 'the state's star witness falsely testified and the lead detective knew she was lying' and 'I feel like I was fooled.'

WOW!

In the minutes since Sister Sister Helen Prejean asked Jake Tapper's viewers to text 'SAVE' to 668366, over 9,800 people have taken action to call on Texas Governor Greg Abbott to grant stay of execution for Ivan Cantu!

October 7 was a brutal, indefensible atrocity. The Gaza campaign is also brutal and indefensible. Too many innocents have died. Every day brings more senseless slaughter. We need a ceasefire and release of hostages now.

1/2 Khaled (7 years old) is the only survivor of the earthquake in his family. He arrived at Idlib Central Hospital after being pulled out from under the rubble of his house in Salqin.
