One of the best meetings on the job so far. I was really pleased today to Chair the first Drug and Alcohol Recovery Expert Panel today.
We’ve convened this advisory panel of leading experts to provide robust, evidence-based insights to reduce and prevent demand for drugs and alcohol. We want people leaving the criminal justice system already on the road to recovery.
This panel's work will be critical to our ambitions to reduce reoffending. More information to be published on the panel's work in due course.
Rieckhoff: He's losing his women and children. His cities are being bombed, and we're talking about his clothes? It was victim shaming, which is what trump has been doing to Zelenskyy and Ukraine since before he got elected. It's unacceptable. It's inappropriate. And it's also undermining not just Ukraine but our own national security.
We are now aligned with the bad guys. Russia is the bad guy, Ukraine is the good guy. And when we continue to attack Ukraine and defend Russia, that puts us in line with the bad guys, which is not where America wants to be.
My speech at the UN Human Rights Council about their recent report on Israel on behalf of the @UNWatch :
I ask the UN, the Arab League, and everyone who had waving the Palestinian flag since October 7:
Where is the flag of Yemen?
In my country, half a million people have died in the last 10 years.
The biggest famine and humanitarian crisis in modern history.
Why does no one care when half a million Yemenis die?
What about Sudan? In less than two years, more than 150,000 people have been killed.
Where is the Sudanese flag?
What about Syria?
Half a million people were killed.
Where is the Syrian flag?
High Commissioner, why is it that when Arabs kill millions of Arabs, no one bats an eye?
Where is the outrage?
Where are the protests?
High Commissioner, may I ask why your report mentions Israel 188 times — yet fails to mention the Islamic Republic in Iran even once?
How can you speak about the conflict while ignoring the party who armed, trained, and funded the terror proxies — Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis — who have been bombing Israel thousands of times?
Why don’t you mention that the Houthis in Yemen have spent millions of dollars firing missiles at Israel, instead of feeding my starving people?
And why is Qatar sitting here as a member of the Human Rights Council when they host the Hamas terror leaders in luxury hotels?
———
Their response?
Silence.
