A reminder that illegal border crossings have been plummeting. In December 2024 they were lower than they were when Trump left office last time.
This is largely b/c about a year ago, Mexico devoted more resources to halting migrants before they reached the US border (turns out, diplomacy matters!)

Trump's plans to annex Greenland may be geopolitically motivated, but they also very much reflect the neocolonial mindset of the tech broligarchy: Greenland in particular has been on their radar for some time, and on the other site they are already envisioning their AI-fueled settler fantasies

Who gave $1 million to Trump’s inaugural fund?
-Each of the 5 biggest tech firms
-The CEOs of Uber & OpenAI

-Drugmaker behemoth Pfizer
Corporate America is desperate to kiss the ring.
