Khalil should be removed, Rubio wrote, for his role in "antisemitic protests and disruptive activities, which fosters a hostile environment for Jewish students in the United States." Rubio also directed his State Department to root out anti-Christian bias by reporting on their fellow workers. What?!
“The Trump administration has ordered State Department employees to report on any instances of coworkers displaying ‘anti-Christian bias’ as part of its effort to implement a sweeping new order on supporting employees of Christian faith.”
State tells employees to report on one another for ‘anti-Christian bias’
“It’s very ‘Handmaid’s Tale’-esque,” one official said.

Love this passage from Hamid Dabashi’s book ‘Where is Abbas Kiarostami?’, the influential film director/poet/photographer. The tone of it is essential in what needs to be cultivated to thrive, to not lose hope and to rise above the noise. When did you last take in art? #abbaskiarostami #Art #film

One of Norway's largest fuel companies just announced that they will no longer refuel US Navy vessels after Trump’s treatment of Zelenskyy.

“It made us sick... We encourage all Norwegians and Europeans to follow our example.”

In Iceland we have a saying:
“Að skíta upp á bak.”
It means that someone took such a colossal shit in their pants, it exploded onto their back.
This is what could best be described the US actions towards Ukraine today.
