Radical population reduction is built into Project 2025. It's the "unwritten" part that Russell Vought hinted at. We are being led by a cadre of psychopaths who are out to beat Stalin's record for number of citizens murdered, starved, or allowed to die of disease, injury, or natural disaster.

They really are in a hurry to get rid of us, aren't they?
So this is funny.
The administration just issued a rule slashing foreign agricultural worker wages. And to justify it, in a public filing, Trump's Labor Department alleges that Trump's immigration enforcement has devastated the Ag workforce and caused a "risk of supply shock-induced food shortages."

Trump Labor Department Says His Immigration Raids Are Causing a Food Crisis
In a filing in the Federal Register, the Labor Department argues there are “immediate dangers to the American food supply” due to a lack of migrant agricultural workers.

In 1961, 3 months after the trial of Adolf Eichmann began, Yale psychologist Stanley Milgram developed the obedience experiment. Test subjects could hear the screams of people they believed they were giving electric shocks to, but they continued with the experiment. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milgram...

A generation or two, or three, didn't have anyone to read Aesop's fables to them when they were children, else they would know the story of the goose that laid the golden egg and the greedy farmer who kills it.
Empires decline all the time, for all kinds of reasons, but our present moment will be remembered in history books for the sheer volume of *voluntary & pointless self-imposed damage*. We're systematically dismantling what made us great, for no reason! Genuinely, with no rationale! It's wild.

Instead of denigrating me as a childless cat lady, VP Vance should be giving me some kind of award for not reproducing. If I had, they all would have been brown-haired, brown-eyed non-Aryan types that he despises.

All my grandparents but one were new immigrants. The one was from an Anglo family that has been here so long that she could have qualified to join the DAR. I don't know if she ever did. Not Jewish, but not "white", either, not until about 100 years ago.

Amid all the bright reds, yellows, oranges, blues, and greens of the taco trucks, there sits one lone white truck that sells burgers and dogs, and I feel like that's what our future looks like without immigrants: all white, no spices, no seasonings, no flavors.

Trump: "Vladimir Putin said something- one of the most interesting things. He said 'your election was rigged because you have mail in voting. It's impossible to have mail in voting & have honest elections.' He said that to me because we talked about 2020. He said, 'you won that election by so much'"
