Pete Hegseth gutted the one Pentagon program built to keep U.S. bombs from killing civilians, and the bodies are already piling up from Iran to Yemen to Honduras. This is not incompetence. It is the oldest story the hemisphere knows.
At the NATO summit in Ankara, Trump sneered that Ukraine's war 'doesn't affect us' and dangled fighter jets for Erdogan. It is the same cold imperial arithmetic Latin America has bled under for over a century.
Washington has blocked all fuel to an island it is not at war with, doubling Cuban infant mortality and gutting childhood cancer survival. The reason is not democracy. It is privatization for Trump's cronies, and the price is being paid in dead children.
