This is the kind of betrayal a nation carries out when its leaders don't believe in the concept of allies and that views promises as something for suckers.
It also makes our armed forces less safe. No nation will ever trust us again. Why should they? We stab our friends in the back.

The next administration must make clear that any immigrant, refugee, or asylum seeker wrongly deported, exiled, or otherwise mistreated by this administration will be readmitted with an expedited path to citizenship. Send a plane to get them.
We can't undo the damage. But we can do something.
33% approval.
Among Republican voters, Trump scores highest for:
Immigration: 79%

But it’s consistent with the central pillar of Trumpian bigotry.
Opposing white supremacy is a crime in Trump’s America.
This feels a lot like southern states persecuting the NAACP during Jim Crow.
Lol. They hold onto those bags for dear life.
Based on Richard Lynn’s dodgy data, of course. This was the purpose of its creation, to masquerade racism as ‘science’ & thereby infiltrate mainstream politics. This is one reason why Co-authors & I have called for retractions of scientific articles that use this data - it’s effectively propaganda.
The murders continue.

Oh cool, we have members of Congress pushing national IQ bullshit now
Calling all cultural anthropologists…
It says a lot that his goal is not truth or upholding justice, but making people miserable.
Yet another ICE inmate death is ruled a homicide by medical examiners.
“There was probably no town or village that didn’t have someone with a different accent to everyone else that was living there. It adds a strain of complexity to how we look at the past.”

It’s beautiful to him because he thinks it makes the country whiter.
Here’s Trump bragging about making the U.S. a country that no one wants to come to and many want to leave.

Kind of tired of the metastasizing stupidity and sociopathy.
This village uses its solar income on free communal lunches, buses and other communal efforts.“If you divide money as individual income, people feel disconnected. People who didn’t know each other for years now get to know each other within days”
I love everything about this.
It’s a telling indicator of media desensitization that the US government’s ongoing program of murder on the high seas—which according to the perpetrators has killed fourteen (14) people this week— is no longer a subject for much serious or sustained news coverage.
Genuinely funny that Sonia Sotomayor issued a public apology today for her mild criticism of a conservative colleague on a specific, substantive issue, and then a few hours later Clarence Thomas picked up a mic and was like ALL LIBERALS ARE AMERICA-HATING COWARDS
I’m getting nostalgic for the time of 3 television channels and rabbit ear antennas.
BREAKING: Senate Republicans blocked my War Powers Resolution that would have ended Trump's unnecessary, unjustified war against Iran.
These cowards have had four chances to stop this chaos in the Middle East.
And they put Trump's ego before America.
Every damn time.
Immigrants Pay More In Taxes Than the Average Person: They get paid lower wages per hour, but they work collectively so many more hours that over the last 30 years, the average immigrant paid ~$100K more in taxes than the average person. cato.org/blog/immigra...
She was granted withholding of removal from India *decades* ago, and had been living and working legally (including for the U.S. government!) ever since.
But with third country removals now a real option, TSA shared her data with ICE and they arrested her at the airport on her way to a job.

I study racism for a living and can still manage to be shocked by how institutionalized it is. What do you mean they were giving tax-breaks to white supremacists celebrating treason?
just a wild country
The assault on the rule of law—domestically and internationally—is a through line of Trump 2.0.
