After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

This level of barbarity is unconscionable.
Nobody should be comfortable with children and families starving to death.
It is morally indefensible to allow the manufactured and man-made starvation to continue. The United States must stop funding and enabling this genocide.

the most important part of this story is not that US diplomats asked if nonwhites qualify for Trump's South Africa refugee program but that Spencer Chretien--a high ranking appointee in Trump's State Department and former Associate Director of the Heritage Foundation and Project 2025--answered NO

Exclusive: US diplomats asked if non-whites qualify for Trump refugee program for South Africans
In early July, the top official at the U.S. embassy in South Africa reached out to Washington asking for clarification on a contentious U.S. policy: could non-whites apply for a refugee program geared toward white South Africans if they met other requirements?

You can always tell who the lover is. In a room full of people, one tells a joke and one laughs harder than it merits because love is light and when you feel too much of it it bursts inside your chest and sounds like fireworks coming out.

‘Friends’ with ‘benefits.’
The benefit of fitting inside a part of my heart you shaped around yourself?
The benefit of having your initials carved into the bark of my soul?
The benefit of staining my memories like a bruise that will never fade?
Are those the benefits?

Sen. Van Hollen: "I think Americans are tired of elected officials or politicians who are all finger to the wind...Anybody who can't stand up for the Constitution and the right of due process doesn't deserve to lead."

Since we’re all talking about it I want to blow up a real female space pioneer, Mae Jemison, an actual astronaut. She’s a graduate of Stanford and Cornel Medical School, served in the peace corps, started an educational nonprofit, and worked for the CDC researching vaccines. That’s a woman in space
