In its simplest terms, the apparent demise of #USAID is the result of the world's richest man ending a program that helps millions of poor people. You don't need a Ph.D. in moral theology to see why this is an evil. You can just read Jesus's parables on the rich and the poor.

R.I.P. Jimmy Carter. A great man and role model for all. He taught us how to be better people and treat each other with kindness.

In 1992, a young African immigrant arrived on our shores in search of a college education.
But he dropped out and, like many immigrants, worked illegally to survive.
Eventually, with government help, he became a billionaire.
And now he's President.

On this date in 1941, Pearl Harbor was attacked by the imperial forces of Japan. The loss of life and destruction was horrific, and it pulled the U.S. into the war.
For Japanese Americans, it was a terrifying time. Overnight, we became the “enemy within” because we were of Japanese descent. /1

We became a convenient scapegoat and a target for racial hate. While U.S. forces went off to fight fascism, we became the victims of a fascist program right here at home. They built barbed wire, militarized camps to hold over 120,000 of us for the duration of the war. /2

As someone who spent his childhood in such camps, I implore you: We must not let history repeat.
Fascism has come before to America. It destroyed so many lives. We can resist it today and not repeat the mistakes of the past. / end

This surge in forced labor fueled the growing agricultural economy, solidifying the region’s role as a cornerstone of France’s colonial enterprise. The reliance on slavery further entrenched the plantation system as the foundation of French dominance in the area.

The real muscle behind Trump’s “populist” movement is the moneyed class — wealthy heiresses, tech bros, and crypto kings. They influence policy to favor the rich, and tell voters that immigrants and DEI have caused their economic plight.
