My dad abhors any negative comments about immigrants. Asked him recently why he’s so strong on it: ‘Because we’re always happy to take the rich and clever ones. Which means it’s not about disliking immigrants. It’s about disliking the poor and vulnerable. And that’s a bad human instinct.’

Pardon power is not the problem. More people should be freed from this vicious system. Corruption and organized crime as governance are the problem. Shady pardons are just one symptom of the much larger clusterfuck we're in. If you zoom in too much on any detail as "the problem," you lose the plot.

A new national security document released by the White House claimed without evidence that Europe is facing "civilizational erasure," echoing the white nationalist "great replacement theory" — a comparison the White House called "total nonsense." on.nbcboston.com/hfaSDnJ

We don't know if they had drugs, and if they had drugs, they still weren't combatants. You don't get to bomb people because you claim they have drugs.
Has drugs ≠ Making war
These are distinctly different things, and it’s important to maintain a grip on reality in the face of fascists trying to destroy it.
There is no possible way any of the people on these US-attacked boats could get “back in the fight” because they weren’t ever in one.

"All is lost" narratives are popular because people generally do not want to take action. Taking action is tiring so if all is lost, you are off the hook. Nothing is more seductive than not having to do anything.

Everything about our current reality would’ve been considered hack sci-fi writing in 2015 but the Donald J. Trump Institute for Peace is next level
SCOOP: Sources tell me Donald Trump's name was added to the exterior of the US Institute of Peace building ahead of Thursday's peace agreement signing between Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), which will be held inside the building. Confirming if it's been officially renamed.

Hillary Clinton blames TikTok and “totally made up” videos for young people’s views on Israel and Palestine.
She says social media influenced “not just the usual suspects” but also “young Jewish Americans who don’t know the history and don’t understand.”

Politicians love to talk about "kids safety" until you ask them to do something that would actually keep kids safe like fund housing, healthcare, education, outdoor spaces, arts programs, etc.
That's because most of them use "safety" as a euphemism for surveillance, control and domination.
