About a month ago, the Trump administration got rid of the de minimis exemption, whereby packages valued under $800 could slide in without import duties. Now there's a backlog as the government can't process all of this paperwork, leading to UPS just destroying packages

Business Insider headline reads: UPS is telling customers that their packages coming to the US are marked for destruction.

Multiple times this year I’ve had coffee with fellow immigrants who grew up in corrupt third world countries and the shared sentiment has been that Americans don’t understand how bad things are going to get.

The President could deploy troops to help disaster recovery efforts from devastating storms, but instead he sends them to Los Angels to chase fry cooks and landscapers.

In just four counties in Central Texas--Hayes, Williamson, Bexar, and Kerr--700,000 people voted for Vice President Harris.

Just those four counties had more votes for VP Harris than the total votes for her in 14 states and D.C.

I understand you're angry, but that anger is very misplaced.

I wish it wasn't the case, but liberals are running out of empathy. We just can't keep caring about people that don't care about us.

I'm truly sorry for the families affected by this, but we have so many problems and only liberals care about actual solutions.

Charlotte Clymer @charlotteclymer.bsky.social · Jul 5

Your regular reminder that most people in this country can't afford to move to another state and the inclination to say they're getting what they voted for in the devastation of a hurricane or flood or whatever the hell is a failure of common sense and empathy on multiple levels.

Worth putting it on the record here, though you probably already know it: “Alligator Alcatraz” is a concentration camp.

Hmm, let’s see… mass detention of civilians without trial or traditional legal protections on the basis of identity (race, religion, ethnicity, political affiliation) rather than any criminal act, often for an indefinite period and done principally to expand political power. Check.

For those unconditionally cheering the attacks on Iran, remember that our early strikes in Afghanistan and Iraq were “successful”. But we ended up getting dragged into costly wars that created more terrorists than we killed. The American people haven’t forgotten that.

“We must expand efforts to detain & deport Illegal Aliens in America’s largest Cities, such as LA, Chicago, & NY, where Millions of Illegal Aliens reside. These, & other Cities, are core of the Dem Power Center, where they use Illegal Aliens to expand their Voter Base”

I think our big problem is the Democratic party is decent at governing and terrible at culture war tactics, and the Republican party is terrible at governing and great at culture war tactics. And the media loves culture war stories.

When the worst person you know gets bitten by a snake, you don’t try to befriend the snake. You observe said biting from a considerable distance and enjoy the schadenfreude.

Abducting people at work sites - meaning they have jobs.
Capturing them at court dates - meaning they're following the law.
Blocking them from accessible higher education - meaning they're striving for more.
And peddling lies about jobless, lawless, driftless.

🚨Another HUGE bit of news tonight; in collaboration with the Trump admin, Texas just kicked 20,000 undocumented college students — people who grew up in Texas and graduated from high school there — out of eligibility for in-state tuition.

This may force thousands to drop out.

Texas agrees with feds to end in-state tuition for undocumented students

Almost 20,000 undocumented college students in Texas will likely lose in-state tuition after this sudden policy reversal.
