Depressing but unfortunately elections have consequences
President Biden revived the US refugee program, “long a pillar of American foreign policy,” after massive cuts under the first Trump admin.
“Now, with Mr. Trump vowing to crack down on immigration again, refugee resettlement agencies are bracing to be gutted.” Again. www.nytimes.com/2024/12/22/u...

Refugees Are Bracing for Trump to Cut the Resettlement Program Again
As Donald J. Trump returns to office, the rebuilt program is under threat. Many vulnerable people approved for resettlement in the U.S. could be stranded abroad.

It’s not going to show up in an article or coverage tomorrow, but the open murder of a CEO was cheered by a ton of people and turned into a meme.
Like, I really don’t think people have fully wrapped their heads around how quickly shit is changing and what the overarching sentiment is becoming.

If I'm seeing correctly, looks like the military is leaving the National Assembly and all major broadcasting stations continue to broadcast the events without interference. Might have to add botched martial law to the list of Yoon's incompetencies.

Honestly, I think Thomas PM Barnett in 2015 lays out the positives for the US & Canada due to climate change which could outweigh damages. We are close to neutral on most indexes I've seen

Jimmy Carter pardoned his brother Billy Carter who took over $200,000 from Libya as its foreign agent.
George H.W. Bush pardoned his son Neil Bush for his role in the S&L scandals of the 1980s.
Nobody thinks those pardons defined either presidency.
Joe Biden's pardon of Hunter Biden won't either.

Patients often don’t know what care they’re entitled to under state law. One survey found 86% of people with insurance don’t know which government agency to call for help.
Knowing how to navigate the system can make all the difference.

Health Insurers Have Been Breaking State Laws for Years
States have passed hundreds of laws to protect people from wrongful insurance denials. Yet from emergency services to fertility preservation, insurers still say no.

The last time the U.S. introduced sweeping taxes on imports was in 1930s Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act, which raised tariffs on thousands of goods to historically high levels. That didn’t help the U.S. out of the Great Depression as other companies retaliated & international trade was drastically reduced

I strongly believe Democrats would have performed better if we had been less chaotic during the Biden years, including when we threw Biden himself under the bus. We need to stop being so chaotic. We won't recruit new voters if we continue to act this way.
