The US is trying to broker an end to the war between Israel and Hamas. Ceasefire talks begin and end and begin again. Secretary of State Antony Blinken has traveled to the region 10 times in the past year.
And that's not the only war the US hopes to end. Russia and Ukraine have been fighting since 2014 when Russia first attacked. It launched a full-scale invasion in February 2022, more than two and a half years ago.
The US and NATO have been supporting Ukraine's efforts to hold off Russia in a hope to preserve broader security and stability in Western Europe.
The next occupant of the White House looks certain to inherit two major conflicts.
Why are these wars lasting so long with no end in sight?

Melania is selling Christmas ornaments, while Trump is offering up 99.9% silver coins—the vibe feels more like a going out of business sale than heading back to the White House. But then again, a new bearish NYT poll is worrisome, especially after a bullish one from NBC on Sunday. Plus, Kamala gets a chance to call Trump a ‘chicken’ for ducking a second debate, and the post-modern relativism of Republicans.

Bad Faith - Episode 408 Promo – Does the Left have a Covid Problem? (w/ Julia Doubleday)
Subscribe to Bad Faith on Patreon to instantly unlock this episode and our entire premium episode library: http://patreon.com/badfaithpodcast
Journalist Julia Doubleday joins Bad Faith to interrogate whether inconsistencies exist between the left’s commitment to universal healthcare and our willingness to criticize Democrats on a range of public safety failures, and the indifference from some on the left to the Biden administration’s declaration that Covid is "over" — even as multiple refinfections present the threat of long Covid and massive public health problems. Have legitimate concerns about CDC misinformation and overly broad vaccine mandates made it difficult to discuss Covid health risks without being pegged as "authoritarian?"

Native America Calling - Monday, September 23, 2024 – Balanced lessons on missions and the gold rush in California
There is a flip side to the narrative about the cultural richness that Spanish colonists brought to California. Likewise, the discovery of gold at Sutters Mill in 1848 did more than just spark the largest settler migration in the country’s history. In both cases, the damage to the lives and cultures of the state’s Indigenous populations was profound. At the time, there were far more Indigenous people than the Spanish or European-descended Americans. In its effort to provide Native-led historical instruction, the National Museum of the American Indian has developed curricula that provides perspective about the people who were there long before anyone else. We’ll learn about NMAI’s educational goal and how it’s being used.
