Trump criticizes ‘nasty’ bishop who made pro-immigrant and LGBTQ+ plea

Mariann Edgar Budde

After a bishop at the National Cathedral prayer service for the inauguration on Tuesday implored Donald Trump to “have mercy upon” immigrants and LGBTQ+ people, many have spoken out about the remarks – including Trump himself.

In a lengthy social media post early on Wednesday, Trump called the Right Rev Mariann Edgar Budde a “Radical Left hard line Trump hater” adding that “she brought her church into the World of politics in a very ungracious way” and criticized her tone as “nasty”.

Later on in the statement, Trump described the service as “boring” and “uninspiring” and said that Budde and her church “owe the public an apology!”

Budde, 65, who is the first woman to serve as the spiritual leader of the Episcopal Diocese of Washington, used her inaugural prayer service sermon at the Washington National Cathedral to appeal to Trump directly.

Israel launches major offensive in Jenin days after Gaza ceasefire

Jenin Palestiniian mourns death of his brotherThe Israeli military bombed and stormed Jenin on Tuesday as it launched a major assault on the northern occupied West Bank city, days after a ceasefire in Gaza took hold.

The attacks killed at least seven Palestinians and wounded 35 others, according to the Palestinian health ministry.

The bombing accompanied a large-scale ground assault by Israeli forces, which is expected to last several days, a military source told the Times of Israel.

Palestinian Authority (PA) security forces - who have been besieging and attacking Jenin since early December - withdrew from the city as the Israeli offensive was starting.

Reporters on the ground told Middle East Eye that Israeli forces are besieging both al-Amal Hospital and Jenin Governmental Hospital.

TVNL Comment: Not a word from the western world.  US newspapers are not even publishing the attacks.  This is to cleanse the WB of Palestinians because of Israel's biblical right to the entire region.

Biden commutes life sentence for Native American activist Leonard Peltier

Peltier pardonedPresident Joe Biden on Monday commuted the life sentence of Leonard Peltier, a Native American activist who has been imprisoned for nearly 50 years.

Peltier, a member of the Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa Indians, was convicted in 1977 for the murders of two FBI agents during a 1975 shootout at the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota.

The activist was convicted of first-degree murder for the deaths of FBI agents Ronald Williams and Jack Coler. However, his case has been widely criticized due to allegations of trial misconduct, including conflicting testimonies, withheld evidence and potential bias among jurors.

New York mayor closes shelters for asylum seekers amid rightward turn

NYC closss asylum shelters

The New York city mayor, Eric Adams, announced on Tuesday that an additional 25 shelters used to house asylum seekers will be closing in the coming two months.

The move comes amid a rightward tack by Adams, especially on the issue of immigration, which has seen him hew close to the incoming Donald Trump administration, which has plans for a mass deportation of millions of undocumented immigrants.

The number of asylum seekers in city shelters is now at its lowest point in 17 months after decreasing for 22 straight weeks.

Among the closing shelters are the Humanitarian Emergency Response and Relief Center at Floyd Bennett Field, which houses about 2,000 people, with housing costs paid by New York state. The state will continue to reimburse New York City for the costs for equivalent care incurred at other migrant housing sites across the city.

Francesca Albanese: Situation of human rights in the Palestinian territories occupied since 1967

Francesca AlbaneseIn the present report, the Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Palestinian territories occupied since 1967,  Albanese, examines the unfolding horrors in the occupied Palestinian territory.

While the wholesale destruction of Gaza continues unabated, other parts of the land have not been spared.

The violence that Israel has unleashed against the Palestinians post-7 October is not
happening in a vacuum, but is part of a long-term intentional, systematic, State-
organized forced displacement and replacement of the Palestinians.

This trajectory risks causing irreparable prejudice to the very existence of the Palestinian people in Palestine. Member States must intervene now to prevent new atrocities that will
further scar human history.

TVNL Comment:  Because of her attempt to report truthfully,  Albanese has wrongfully been labelled "anti-Semitic." Her appearance before the US Congress, among other formats, was abruptly cancelled after this accusation was made. The report, however, remains part of history.

Leonard Peltier, Indigenous activist in prison for 47 years over FBI killings, has parole hearing

Leonard Peltier

Leonard Peltier, a Native American activist who has served nearly 50 years in prison for the killing of two FBI agents, was due to have his first parole hearing since 2009 on Monday, his lawyer said.

Peltier, 79, has maintained that he did not kill the FBI special agents Jack Coler and Ronald Williams in 1975 on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation. Advocates, including figures such as the late Nelson Mandela and a former prosecutor and judge involved in his case, have long said he should be freed because of what they call legal irregularities in his trial.

Florida blocks heat protections for workers right before summer

DiSantis blocks heat protection for workersFlorida Gov. Ron DeSantis has signed a law that prevents cities or counties from creating protections for workers who labor in the state's often extreme and dangerous heat.

Two million people in Florida, from construction to agriculture, work outside in often humid, blazing heat.

For years, many of them have asked for rules to protect them from heat: paid rest breaks, water, and access to shade when temperatures soar. After years of negotiations, such rules were on the agenda in Miami-Dade County, home to an estimated 300,000 outdoor workers.

But the new law, signed Thursday evening, blocks such protections from being implemented in cities and counties across the state.

TVNL Comment: There is no bottom for DiSantis and his cohorts.  Bottom feeders always find a way to go lower.
