Doctors Without Borders (MSF) said that “a burn injury is more than just a wound – it is a prolonged sentence of suffering, and this is even more so in Gaza, Palestine,” following over 19 months of attacks by the Israeli forces, causing the destruction of Gaza’s healthcare system.

MSF said in a statement, “Many people have extensive burns covering large portions of their bodies – some people have as much as 40 per cent of their total body surface burned,” due to “bomb explosions and improvised cooking methods.”

The organisation stated that “since the Israeli forces resumed hostilities on 18 March, MSF teams have seen an increase in the number of patients with burn injuries – most of them children,” noting that “in April, in our clinic in Gaza City in the north of Gaza, MSF teams are seeing an average of over 100 patients with burns and injuries a day.”

Playing exclusively to the base he created isn't going well, but this is scarcely news. Just bringing people back from El Salvador would have, to my mind, pulled him from being underwater on immigration. Wouldn't fix the economy, but how many fucking hills do you want to die on? 18? This isn't a golf course.

The issue is things have to get so bad that 67 senators are willing to give him the boot while under his boot.

Americans, including some Republicans, are losing faith in Donald Trump across a range of key issues, according to polling released this week. One survey found a majority describing the president’s second stint in the White House so far as “scary”.

Along with poor ratings on the economy and Trump’s immigration policy, a survey released on Saturday found that only 24% of Americans believe Trump has focussed on the right priorities as president.

That poll comes as Trump’s popularity is historically low for a leader this early in a term. More than half of voters disapprove of Trump’s performance as president, and majorities oppose his tariff policies and slashing of the federal workforce.

I drive a 2014 GMC Savanah cargo van for work. It has a handy backup camera display built into the rearview mirror. However the camera is only on when the truck is in reverse. Seeing as how this is a cargo van with a solid wall directly behind the seats, the rearview mirror is useless for anything besides that backup camera display and checking my hair. I figure if I could get it to leave the backup camera on whenever the truck is on then I could also see whatever is directly behing me when just driving normally far more effectively than I can with just the side mirrors.

Is there any way to just keep the backup camera on whenenever the truck is on? Is there any reason why doing so would be a bad idea?
