Y'all, I went down a rabbit hole, curious about Donald Trump's claims of stopping the war between Armenia (not Albania) and Azerbaijan.
The tl;dr, unsurprisingly, is that this answer is far more complex than a peace deal and raises a lot of questions about the implications for the region. A thread:

It is unfathomable that the USG lawyers would sign off on a no-survivors boat strike (no get of jail free card).
There's clear precedent dating back to World War II trial of Germans for that very act, which lawyers know well.

To be fair, we were taught (propogandized to) that Thanksgiving is a day for gratitude and other good things.
But it was actually a day of great violence, hate, bigotry, and white men trying to exert dominance over a land of people...
So he's kind of on trend, historically.

I’ll spare you the rest of Trump’s statement where he calls Tim Waltz the R-word & hate mongers immigrants—
On a day meant for gratitude, he ranted about “vermin,” & vengeance. It’s the clearest reminder yet — there is no moral bottom too low or autocratic line he won’t cross

The guy shot two random people with a gun, I don't think you can say he wasn't assimilating into our culture
Stephen Miller is now arguing that assimilation is fundamentally impossible and that certain cultures are not compatible with Western civilization

Just like Nazi Germany used US laws to make the Nuremberg laws. But as they stated, they toned theirs back.
The DC shooting story is really getting to me because we literally trained this man as a child soldier for a death squad in a forever war and Stephen Miller et al want to blame it on other cultures? It's our culture, American culture, that killed that woman.

Such classic gaslighting it's an instructive moment. The question is not whether generic is better or worse, it's that a list with more expensive brand names is not the same as a list with cheaper generics. Perverting that truth into an attack on those calling it out is Manipulation 101.
Hassett: "On one of the Sunday shows, the anchor criticized the fact Walmart said the Thanksgiving dinner is cheaper by about $10. Then he said, 'Oh yeah, but they substituted generic stuff,' as if having a generic something is a crime for ordinary folks! It shows how out of touch these people are."

At the grocery store tonight, an elderly woman scanned folks waiting in line, then walked up to me and asked if I knew if the things she had in her arms were EBT eligible.
I honestly wasn't sure, so I googled all of the things she was trying to buy to see. Much of it didn't qualify anymore...

This is called “chain refoulment” and it’s illegal under both U.S. and international law. And the State Department and ICE know very well what Ghana is doing and simply don’t care.
ICE deported a woman who owned a home in the US for 30 years. A judge banned ICE from deporting her to Sierra Leone where she had been tortured, so it deported her to Ghana, which kidnapped her and sent her back Sierra Leone anyway. ICE is part of this illegal conspiracy.

The first time terrorists used planes to attack Americans wasn’t on 9/11 or at Pearl Harbor. It was the Tulsa Race Massacre of 1921 when white supremacists flew a dozen planes to drop turpentine or nitroglycerin bombs on Black Americans.
Viola Fletcher was there.
