Let us in. For more than two years, we’ve been barred from entering Gaza to report freely. It’s long past time for Israel to lift this ban and #LetUsIn. Join us. Share this post. And sign the FPA’s petition: c.org/BfXbQdXjd9

Great piece by @halbfinger on the remarkable work being done by Dr. David Hasan— a force of nature— and the Gaza Children’s Village. With schools, women’s centres and medical facilities all being rolled out in the most challenging circumstances imaginable nytimes.com/2026/02/18/wor…

News: Trump met with Elon Musk on Sunday. Comes as Musk has been attacking Biden's immigration policies and signaling privately that Biden must be defeated in November. Not yet clear whether he'll write a big check for Trump. w @maggieNYT @RMac18 nytimes.com/2024/03/05/us/…
