Anyone who believes in the superiority of any race or national origin is ignorant and deeply stupid. If our democracy survives, I picture future students learning about this era and being horrified at the overt racism and hatred expressed by Trump and some of today’s GOP politicians.

This is an incredibly dangerous and radical policy decision reflects the Trump Administration’s allegiance with gun sellers rather than to the safety of the public. If not reversed, it will facilitate illegal gun trafficking that will be more guns in the hands of dangerous individuals.

ANOTHER FINE MESS: USA-UGANDA DEHUMANISING "DEPORTATION" AGREEMENT CHALLENGED IN COURT Kampala, Uganda - 2 April 2026: The Uganda Law Society and East Africa Law Society have learnt about an advanced plot to forcibly remove (in the name of deportation) a dozen people from the United States and effectively dump them in Uganda through an undignified, harrowing and dehumanising process that has reduced them into little more than chattel, for the benefit of unnamed, private interests on either side of the Atlantic. We have been informed that the privately-owned aircraft carrying the deportees is or will soon be airborne and will be touching down at Entebbe International Airport today. Our research indicates that none of the mandated institutions, such as the Directorate of Citizenship and Immigration Control, the Parliament of Uganda, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs have been engaged regarding this matter. Moreover, no policy document or legislation has been promulgated to stipulate the procedures relevant to the transfer of people from one country to another.Typical of such suspicious arrangements, we have also learnt about private contractors who are falling over themselves to cash in on the suffering of fellow human beings whose crime is to have been arbitrarily deemed as undesirable and as such disposable to the most willing takers, regardless of whatever fate awaits them. This development and the attendant illegalities that accompany it are reminiscent of a dark past that the global family of humanity supposedly put behind itself in pursuit of the ideal that every human being is born equal in dignity and rights.
Applauding the Uganda Law Society and East Law Society and all the other Ugandans protesting the lawlessness and inhumanity of the Trump deportations to Uganda. Photo is of their letter announcing a lawsuit against those in Uganda allowing this.

Unconscionable
Please take down any posts that imply that you or others are considering murder of political opponents. We are trying to save Democracy, not violate Constitutional guarantees of due process and bans on cruel and unusual punishment.
This is a shocking lack of empathy. Messages about patriotism sure would have been helpful during the COVID-19 pandemic. Hundreds of thousands of lives could have been saved if Trump and other GOP politicians had said: “Let’s be patriots and wear masks and gather outdoors and get vaccinated.”

*2003 invasion of Iraq
It’s too simple to blame Israel for Trump’s decision to attack Iran. Trump could have ignored Netanyahu the same way he ignores other leaders. Joe Kent is a right-wing nut who also claims Israel was behind Charlie Kirk’s assassination and the 2003 invasion of Iran.
How convenient for the ultra-right to blame everything on Israel. Never mind cowardly GOP politicians’ refusal to mandate thorough background checks and other gun safety measures.
I wonder if the people being deported were shackled the entire 31 hours on the ground?
I will never forget how badly Beth Heiden was treated by the press after she won a bronze medal in the 1980 Olympic 3,000 m speed skating race. She was asked why she hadn’t equalled her brother’s feats. This NYT article about Heiden is an embarrassment. No paywall. www.nytimes.com/1980/02/21/a...
We need improved flu vaccines that can adapt to variants more nimbly, but due to RFK Jr.’s unscientific animus toward mRNA vaccines, FDA refused to review Moderna’s new mRNA flu vaccine, altho FDA previously approved the trial design. Shame on Drs. Makary and Prasad, who claim to be pro-science.
Trump regime numbers of deportations are “a self-serving fantasy” according to the Center for Migration Studies, which estimated self-deportations were about 200,000 for 2025. Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse reported that formal ICE removals were about 300,000–350,000 last year.
Save the Washington Post. Cancel Amazon Prime.
To protest the mass layoffs of Post staff, I canceled my Amazon Prime Membership.
I’ll keep subscribing to The Post as long as their news reporting is excellent. Their right-wing editorials suck, but their real journalists have done an outstanding job of covering the second Trump term. Here’s one example of abuses that Post reporters exposed. No paywall. wapo.st/4kqY2qi

The Washington Post has done excellent reporting for decades about public health and immigration and the current regime. #SavethePost
Post reporters write outstanding & well-researched news articles. I am very sad and angry to see a great news organization demolished. Firing reporters will not attract more readers. One example (no paywall): wapo.st/4ryR2Kq
Unconscionable to send people back to these regimes.
True progressives organize people to fight injustice together rather than attack allies such as Senator Ruben Gallego.
If you think liberals are the enemy, ask yourself who is currently terrorizing people of color in the USA.
