A few days after the presidential election one year ago, we went to Fordham Road in the Bronx.
It was a little different last week.

White House budget cuts $1 billion from international narcotics and law enforcement. Weird!
They also significantly defund the UN.
And they basically zero out educational and cultural affairs projects (Fullbright, IVLP, CLS, etc). Of course, Trump term #1 proposed this too.

I can't believe left-leaning people are using this moment to argue for their favored set of trade policies, as if what Trump's engaged in has anything to do with trade. He imposed sanctions on countries because he could & because he thinks he can intimidate the world into submission.

Every Cabinet member has different, contradictory talking points about supposed purpose of these tariffs.
Are they a negotiating tactic? Are they instead permanent, because we need them to raise revenue/boost US manufacturing?
Are they designed to return us to 1790s lifestyles & living standards?

This likely confirms that the decision to arrest him was made at the highest levels of government, a terrifying return to the policies of ideological exclusion last seen used during the heights of the Cold War. A very, very worrying precedent at the start of this government.

Admin. official Pete Marocco told the US district court on 2/26 that Rubio had terminated nearly 5800 awards at USAID - per Rubio's post now, appears roughly 600 have since been restored. Reports suggest many life-saving programs were initially canceled.

Yes. If DHS can barge in, say your visa was revoked, be told you have a green card, say it's revoked too, and then disappear you so that neither your lawyer nor your family can find you, then all the guardrails are gone. There is no policy, practice, or law protecting anyone.
