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.

Fewer approve of Trump’s handling of the economy - AP-NORC About 7 in 10 Americans describe the national economy as poor and think the country is headed in the wrong direction.

33% approval.

Among Republican voters, Trump scores highest for:

Immigration: 79%
Iran: 67%
The economy: 62%

Immigration and demographics are at the heart of this whole era.

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.

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.

How South Korea plans to use the Iran crisis to spur a renewables revolution Energy crisis unfolding in Middle East has added political urgency, and more funding, to transform the solar industry in particular

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.

Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas blasts progressivism as threat to America He said that the values enshrined in the 1776 Declaration of Independence have “fallen out of favor” among Americans.

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

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.

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?
