On U.S. complicity in the unfolding massacres: "The U.S. should halt arms transfers to the UAE, which is supplying the RSF with the weapons used to carry out atrocities in Darfur. Failure to take action could condemn hundreds of thousands more civilians to death at the hands of genocidal forces."

This man was part of a coalition of Reagan-era apartheid apologists who opposed U.S. opening talks with the African National Congress which he called a terrorist org. He has been a right wing activist for decades. His son was part of the Jan 6th mob and was convicted (later pardoned by Trump). 1/
So you should really watch this. Just 2 minutes. But a window into the truly radical nature of the people Trump is nominating.
When pressed today, the nominee to be Ambassador to South Africa refuses to oppose reinstituting laws to prevent black people from voting in America.
