Dear media.
I think controlled immigration is a good thing for our culture & our economy.
I think we should be a safe place for people fleeing persecution.
I think you’re enabling far right extremism to flourish & become the norm in this country?
I think that’s appalling.

Think the basic argument here is correct. We're in a state of national emergency and the government is unable to admit there's a national emergency, let alone describe it or how we can emerge from it. That situation can't last forever.

Europeans' belief in the importance of the EU has surged to record levels, according to a survey released yesterday.
74% now say their country benefits from being in 🇪🇺 - up from 50% in 2010. And the biggest reason is about security, *not* the economy.

🇺🇦 Zelensky: Ukraine accepts the U.S. proposal for a 30-day full ceasefire—on the frontline, in the skies, and at sea. "We are ready for peace. The U.S. will need to convince Russia. If they agree, the silence begins immediately." The U.S. is also restoring defense aid & intelligence sharing.

When Trump was sworn in, Elon Musk's corporations were under more than 32 investigations conducted by at least 11 federal agencies.
Most of the cases are now closed or likely to be closed soon, and the federal agencies are being defanged by DOGE.
Funny how that works, huh?
