I feel crazy at how everyone is acting like this is normal. These are concentration camps being built right before our eyes. These buildings are not meant to house human beings. People will be caged like cattle and die.

Will a ‘Trump slump’ continue to hit US tourism in 2026 − and even keep World Cup fans away?
Talk of boycotts have added to fears among the US tourism industry that foreign tourists will continue to stay away.

Canada has stood with America when we were at our lowest, has fought and died in wars alongside us, has done everything a nation could to help and be amicable with another. And now America has gratuitously stabbed Canada in the back, and continues to do so. Things can never be the same again.

And perhaps Canada learns it has some leverage to stand up to it and courage to go anther way with other people
America is learning the hard way that "we make a lot of money together, you benefit from trade with us" does not actually equal "we own you and you must be subservient," and that countries will forgo some money to preserve sovereignty.
Today's corrupt, self-interested US leaders don't get that.

A "Zahltag" Moment, in a United States of “On To Cincinnati”
The crimes of Trump & Epstein are heinous, dark, and deep—but the perpetrators walk free. To survive as a democracy, we can't "turn the page." We must hold the traitors to account. Here's how.

I keep coming back to Miller's formulation of sovereignty: "to control a territory you have to be able to defend a territory, improve a territory, inhabit a territory."
Think of how few states actually meet that definition, and how alarmed the rest will be to learn this is the US govt's position.

You should be advocating ABOLISHING ICE and jailing everyone complicit in its illegal activities you useless fuck.
Democrats want commonsense reform for ICE:
End the roving patrols and racial profiling.
Take accountability and abide by the same rules as local police.
Masks need to come off, body cameras need to stay on—no secret police in the United States of America.
