Letters: Washington, D.C., has a deficit of humanity
Briefly

The article critiques the absence of humanity in Washington D.C., highlighting political actions that neglect compassion and kindness. It condemns actions by figures like Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu, connecting their policies to a broader disregard for the lives of citizens and marginalized communities. The author expresses concern about the militarization of responses to protests and the stripping of essential support systems for vulnerable populations, emphasizing that such actions could undermine democratic values and human rights both domestically and internationally.
Even worse is the abomination of his Cabinet supporting this behavior.
Tear gas, sponge bullets and federal troops now stand against American citizens demanding humane treatment of migrants.
These strategies threaten democratic foundations and international human rights.
Washington is devoid of humanity.
