A grim BBC report from Havana filed 4 days ago. The Trump Administration is deliberately causing the worst humanitarian crisis of my lifetime in the western hemisphere and the US prestige press can't be bothered to cover it. Please shame them into reporting on this crisis before people start dying.
Seems clear here the "strategic direction" was market manipulation.
I fully agree! The same for Europe, including traditional pro-US countries like Germany and the Netherlands.
Both Republicans AND Democrats miss the fundamental transformation that has taken place in Europe. Not even speaking of the generational effects!
Yep.
Oh, good. "this is now starting to look like a potential combination of the 1973 post-Yom Kippur War oil shock, the 2022 Russia-Ukraine War commodity shock, and the 2020-21 Covid supply chain shock."
Wow -- as first spotted by @BadFoxGraphics on X, Fox & Friends this morning used *old footage of a previous dignified transfer* to mislead their audience about the fact that Trump wore a baseball cap during the one yesterday
Not only did the US, per its own βintelligence,β bomb this girls primary school, THEY BOMBED IT TWICE.

They can't even escape this by moving to another state.
The core lesson from the last ~decade of US politics is that most Americans just dont wanna be bothered. Theyll tolerate economic decline if it hurts someone besides themselves & theyll tolerate an authoritarian gov if its not authoritarian to them. Unfortunately for Trump, he's bothering ppl w both

As I told my undergrads at the start of the semester, I'm not asking you to write a paper about Little Rock's school desegregation because I don't know what happened there.

two days? this kid is getting to play video games for a couple days and walking back in to a standing ovation
π§΅ The inhumane treatment of migrants caught in the US deportation snare is ongoing. Good question here:"Did airport employees in Portsmouth even know 100-200 shackled people were likely sitting on a plane on their tarmac all night? "
