'Nobody wants to come': What if the U.S. can no longer attract immigrant physicians?
Immigrants make up a significant proportion of all the country's doctors. New policies are making it harder and less appealing for foreign-born physicians to come to the U.S.

“YOU hit HER.”
CHICAGO - Trump’s ICE goons ram into a passing car after snatching someone, then brutally drag the female driver of the car they hit out of her car with guns drawn and arrest her too. (Her brother says she’s a citizen)

Every major talent that works for ABC and Disney should refuse to show up for work until Jimmy Kimmel is reinstated.
Marvel movies need to shutdown. Ditto the sitcoms.
Collective boycott.

The transformation also shows how much politics is about online performance. And in this instance, the louder, gaudier the aesthetic, the more "authenticity" it telegraphs.

How Did Republican Fashion Go From Blazers to Belligerence?
Trump and his cronies’ style reflects a platform where grievance is currency and performance is power.

"Evidently China is farther along in its project than I realized, because Xi has reached the point where he no longer humors Trump. Which means that the Chinese believe America’s decline is terminal."
The Saddest Little Dictator
Trump is so weak that Xi Jinping doesn’t even feel the need to manipulate him anymore. Meanwhile the rest of the world is moving on from America too.

They don’t care if you’re a citizen anymore. They enjoy torturing us.
MUST WATCH: ICE kidnapped a disabled American citizen.
Her name is Alma Bowman. Born in the Philippines while her dad served in the U.S. Navy.
She’s lived here 48 years.
They crashed her wheelchair, denied meds, cut her off from her lawyer—and jailed her.
She. Is. A. Citizen.

Andry Romero, a young gay man, was given an asylum appointment by the U.S. Government. When he showed up to the appointment we kidnapped him and sent him to a foreign prison.
I asked Secretary Noem to check if he’s alive. Her response was shameful.

Thanks goodness the corruption of DEI is behind us, and we can create a new, golden age of merit:
Rubio and Hegseth have installed this twenty-something DOGE affiliate, Nate Cavanaugh, as acting president of the U.S. Institute of Peace, per filing.
Before DOGE took control of USIP, the duly appointed president was George Moose, a career diplomat who first joined the foreign service in 1967.
