Some readers are fed up with me!“Don’t guilt trip me” is a refrain I heard from many readers of my recent columns from West Africa and South Sudan about children dying because of cuts in American humanitarian aid. Let me try to address the kinds of concerns critics have raised in Times comments and on social media:These may be tragedies, but they are not our tragedies. They are not our problems. I don’t mean to sound cold-hearted, but we are not the world’s doctor, and we can’t end all suffering.

President Donald Trump has claimed a "spectacular military success" in destroying three sites in Iran; we'll see if that's true. What is clear is that he has pushed America into a war with Iran that he acknowledges may escalate. Beyond doubts about the legal basis for bombing Iran, I see risks for America and the world ahead revolving around several fundamental unknowns. The first uncertainty is how Iran will strike back at the United States.

El presidente Donald Trump ha proclamado un "éxito militar espectacular" al destruir tres sitios en Irán; veremos si es cierto. Lo que está claro es que ha empujado a Estados Unidos a una guerra con Irán que, según reconoce, podría intensificarse. Más allá de las dudas sobre la base legal para bombardear Irán, veo riesgos para Estados Unidos y el mundo en el futuro que giran en torno a tres incógnitas fundamentales. La primera incertidumbre es cómo contraatacará Irán a Estados Unidos.

If President Trump appointed a presidential commission to devise the most regressive tax targeting the poorest and most industrious people in America, it would come up with a tax on remittances. Oh, it just did.
The big beautiful bill puts a 3.5% tax on remittances. @helen_dempster @SamHuckstep and Charlie Ward estimate this could reduce remittances to El Salvador by over 1 percentage point of GNI. That's a massive economic hit for a poor country. https://t.co/9vrYHf1NSO
