The reason MAGA thinks Bad Bunny isn’t an American isn’t because of ignorance of Puerto Rico. It’s because they saw the headlines when he chose not to tour in the U.S. & immediately assumed he’s protecting himself. They can’t comprehend the idea of someone giving up $ to protect others.

You might be able to hide behind the need for rule of law when it comes to undocumented migrants, but Kristi Noem going after Bad Bunny is blatant racism. What business is it of hers? He’s a talented, law-abiding citizen, and one of biggest talents of our time.

Late afternoon today we reached 60 ratifications for the Global Ocean Treaty. It will now enter into force - the formal law of the world’s high seas to protect biodiversity and pave the way towards a global network of ocean sanctuaries. Such an amazing win in an otherwise shadowy time!

Why do people keep saying that the U.S. military strike on a Venezuelan boat occurred in “international waters”? There are no international waters anywhere near Venezuela. Trump did this (if in fact that narrative is true) in sovereign waters of a Caribbean state, possibly even Venezuela itself.

As an undergrad I spent two full summers in the country of Antigua and Barbuda. Each time I got back and had to drive up the commercialized I-95 corridor from Miami to West Palm Beach I would sob uncontrollably. I didn’t know why then. I know why now.
