CNN, former Pink Floyd frontman Roger Waters offered a defence for his labelling of US President Joe Biden as a war criminal.Waters is currently on tour across North America with his latest stage show, ‘This Is Not A Drill’, having played 15 dates in the region since early July. For the show, Waters’ stage is lined with giant screens, which at one point, display a slideshow of people that Waters has branded as “war criminals”.Biden is shown among the cohort – right after his predecessor, Donald Trump – with a label asserting to concertgoers that the current US President is “just getting started”.Speaking with CNN’s Michael Smerconish (who notes that he’s a fan of Waters’ music, but disagrees with him on some of his political viewpoints), Waters was asked why he considers Biden to be a fit for the inflammatory slideshow.“Well, he’s fuelling the fire in the Ukraine, for a start – that is a huge crime,” the artist answered, rhetorically posing to Smerconish: “Why won’t the United States of America encourage [Volodymyr] Zelenskyy, the [Ukrainian] president, to negotiate, obviating the need for this horrific, horrendous war that’s killing… We don’t know how many Russians.”Smerconish responds by telling Waters that he’s “got it reversed”, and that the artist is erroneously “blaming the party that got invaded”.
Anthony Fauci Announces He Will Retire By End of Biden’s First Term, Warns Pandemic Will Persist

POLITICO Monday.“We’re in a pattern now.
If somebody says, ‘You’ll leave when we don’t have Covid anymore,’ then I will be 105,” said Fauci, “I think we’re going to be living with this.”Despite previously teasing retirement last month in an interview with The Independent, Fauci, 81, indicated Monday that he will leave his position as director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases by the end of Biden’s first term in January 2025.In the wide-ranging POLITICO interview, Fauci reflected on his goal to reduce political polarization that the pandemic sparked, even noting that he has an “interesting relationship” with former President Donald Trump.“Two guys from New York, different in their opinions and their ideology, but still, two guys who grew up in the same environments of this city,” Brooklyn native Fauci said of Trump, “I think that we are related to each other in that regard.”Ahead of debates revolving around mask mandates and school closures that might arise as a result of a Republican-controlled House or Senate next year, Fauci expressed that his decision to retire was not related to any potential conflicts in the future.As for the pandemic, which continues to kill 300 Americans each day, Fauci says that, “What we have right now, I think we’re almost at a steady state.” Despite Fauci’s previous belief that the vaccine and one booster might be enough to combat the virus, he now says that fast-evolving variants might require an annual booster shot.“I think, although I don’t know for sure, [that] over the next cycle or so, we’ll be getting towards a once a year boost, like flu,” said Fauci.

Fauci: Monkeypox Response Must Avoid Stigmatizing Gay and Bi Men
