The latest WAR headlines & some anti-war music links

The latest WAR headlines & some anti-war music links

By Lynda Carson - December 2, 2024

There are no shortages of WAR and threats of Nuclear War headlines gracing the TV news, newspapers, and Google Newswire, as people in War's are dying in large numbers, being injured, and are going hungry, as the madness of fascist convicted felon Donald J. Trump and his right-wing extremist neo-Nazi MAGA Republicans threaten Americans with more Tax Cuts for the rich, job losses, major tariffs on imports, WAR on the enemy within and migrants, and massive budget cuts to federal domestic programs to assist the poor, and middle class.... What a world.

Our nation is in dire straits as a result.

Reportedly, “U.S. military spending/defense budget for 2022 was $876.94B, a 8.77% increase from 2021. U.S. military spending/defense budget for 2021 was $806.23B, a 3.58% increase from 2020. U.S. military spending/defense budget for 2020 was $778.40B, a 6% increase from 2019.”

As of 11 March 2024 the US Department of Defense fiscal year 2025 (FY2025) budget request was $849.8 billion.

Meanwhile: Reportedly, “The latest Republican House appropriations bills would, among other things:

• take away funding for K-12 students in low-income communities and programs that make higher education more affordable;

• increase hardship for families struggling to pay rent by reducing funding for housing assistance;

• exacerbate challenges for parents and providers by failing to make meaningful investments in child care;

• hamper our nation’s ability to address climate change and protect the environment by cutting funding for clean energy technology and programs that support clean air and water;

• underfund critical government services, including the Social Security Administration’s ability to respond to inquiries and process applications for disability benefits; and

• reduce funding for agencies that protect workers’ rights and provide job training programs to help people develop new skills and boost their employment prospects.

Many of these cuts would affect investments in people and communities that have been under-resourced for decades, such as Black, Latino, and Indigenous communities, people with disabilities, and families with low incomes of all races and ethnicities.”

This is just a partial snapshot of what is happening at the moment, revealing that we all are in deep trouble.
