About
### The cruelty against children has to be known: At the kitchen table. Over 770,000 kids have already been cut off from food assistance — children whose only "crime" is being poor. In the preschool classroom. Unable to kill Head Start outright, the administration is now gutting it by regulation — a new rule would strip away the 60-year-old federal standards on class size, health screenings, disability services, and teacher pay, and shut immigrant families out. The name stays on the door; the protections vanish. ***At the shelter door.*** ICE is now detaining children at roughly ten times the old rate, and using kids as bait to arrest the very relatives who came forward to care for them. Family separation is back — just quieter this time. ***Around the world.*** Gutting USAID has, in a single year, been tied to some 700,000 deaths — more than half of them children — from malaria, hunger, and disease we already knew how to stop. ***In a classroom in Iran.*** On the opening morning of this year's war, missiles destroyed a girls' school in Minab, killing about 165 people — most of them girls aged 7 to 12. Our own military's assessment found U.S. forces were likely responsible
