The U.S. Senate on Wednesday blocked two resolutions that would have stopped the sale of some $450 million in bombs and bulldozers to Israel, as President Donald Trump’s fellow Republicans rallied behind his support for the Jewish state.But support for the resolutions from a large majority of the 47-member Senate Democratic caucus underscored growing frustration within that party about the effect on civilians from Israeli strikes on Gaza, Lebanon and Iran.A decades-long tradition of strong bipartisan support for Israel in the U.S. Congress means resolutions to stop weapons sales are unlikely to pass, but backers hope raising the issue will…

White House budget director Russell Vought said on Wednesday he could not estimate the cost of the Iran war, as he defended President Donald Trump’s request for a massive $1.5 trillion annual military budget against bipartisan criticism from U.S. lawmakers who cited the Pentagon’s historic lack of financial accountability.“We’re not ready to come to you with a request. We’re still working on it. We’re working through to figure out what’s needed,” Vought told a hearing of the House of Representatives Budget Committee. “I don’t have a ballpark.”The cost of the war with Iran, which Trump began alongside Israel on February…

This article was originally published by Willow Tohi at Natural News.  A peer-reviewed study details a rare case of dual blood cancers in a healthy woman following mRNA COVID-19 vaccination, proposing biological mechanisms for a potential link. The authors faced significant publication barriers, with the paper rejected 16 times by 15 journals over two years before final acceptance. Researchers argue the difficulty in publishing findings that challenge the mainstream narrative poses a grave threat to scientific integrity and public knowledge. The study suggests lipid nanoparticles could give vaccine components “unfettered access” to bone marrow, potentially disrupting blood cell formation and…

Nearly 150 military family members died by suicide in 2023, a drop of 22% in the past six years. Despite the decline, however, the rate of suicides among military spouses and dependent children has actually risen slightly, the result of a declining population and continued deaths, according to the Defense Department. According to the DoD’s 2024 Annual Report on Suicide in the Military released last month, 146 military family members, including 98 spouses and 48 dependents, died by suicide in 2023, the same number as the previous year. But the rate — 6 deaths per 100,000 people — rose from…
