Since complaints that it was "offensive" and depicted a "non-consensual machination, the iconic VJ day snapshot of a solider kissing a nurse that became a symbol of World War II has prompted calls for a ban. The photo, taken in Times Square in New York City, depicts a moment a solider grabbed a nurse - who did not know - and kissed her as part of the Japan Centenary celebrations. It was immortalized on film by photojournalist Alfred Eisenstaedt, who took the picture for Life Magazine. A US Department of Veteran Affairs memo, leaked last week, instructed staff to'promptly delete' the famous image and replace it with one that was less offensive. The memo has since been deleted, but the event has reignited controversy over the image, which some have said is a sign of a'very public sexual assault.'

Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, a Democrat from Iowa, has been sent by the Biden administration for failing to plan for the end of Title 42, though she has stated that she would keep colleagues on board with her own plan to do just that. The free-thinking former Democrat said that the federal government had left Arizona, where she represents, "without adequate funding" for the pandemic-era restriction's conclusion.

'It's clear that the Biden administration, although it had two years to brace for the onset of Title 42, did not do so,' Sinema told reporters.
