“… In recent years, the number of unaccompanied children arriving in the United States reached record highs, peaking at nearly 129,904 in the fiscal year ending in 2022, according to Office of Refugee Resettlement data. Last fiscal year, 98,356 unaccompanied children entered the country, still tens of thousands higher than the numbers that came in 2020 and the years prior.

The vast majority of the unaccompanied children are Spanish speakers, hailing from Honduras, Guatemala, El Salvador or Mexico.

… A federal judge recently ordered the Trump administration to temporarily restore the contract, but funding still isn’t flowing to legal providers, who continue to face difficult decisions about how to move forward. …”

reminiscent of those scenes in orange is the new black where they set-up that prison kangaroo court with little kids in it and Figueroa told the douchebag ICE guy to go fuck himself.

It asks journal editors to respond to questions such as “How do you clearly articulate to the public when you have certain viewpoints that are influenced by your ongoing relations with supporters, funders, advertisers, and others?” and “Do you accept articles or essays from competing viewpoints?”

This demonstrates a stunningly clueless understanding of the peer-review process and primary literature.

This is who Rubio has always been: one of the conspiracy -mongers who accuses Dems of undermining America. Remember that his "make no mistake" line that was so embarrassing for him in the 16 debate (where he recited it twice from memory and Christie caught him on it) was about Barack Obama knowing exactly what he was doing undermining America.

Rubio is a POS and always has been. I gave him a chance because people here were saying he's a decent choice, and the Dems weren't upset about the pick -- but he's proven to be exactly who I thought he was.
 


“The Trump administration quietly released key climate change data last week that has historically been accompanied by expert analysis from government scientists at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, CNN has learned.

The lack of context minimized the government’s own findings that atmospheric levels of carbon dioxide — the most abundant planet-warming gas in the air — jumped up by a record amount in 2024.

Instead of issuing a public-facing web story with an explanation of the annual measurement, as the agency has at this time of year for about a decade, NOAA public affairs officials scuttled those plans and instead released the new data on X and Facebook on April 14, sources at the agency told CNN. The social media posts link to NOAA’s CO2 data-tracking web page.


The episode, along with recent budget and staffing cuts, illustrates the Trump administration’s resistance to publicly distributing climate change-related data. The posts on X and Facebook, for example, did not call attention to the record-high rate of year-over-year increase in CO2 concentrations. …”

I bet you'd say that Republicans are undermining America while, in the minds of Republicans, they're actually saving America.

Well, Trump literally tried to undermine America on J6.

I was adamantly opposed to the Iraq invasion. Well, not adamantly but I was definitely opposed. I didn't think Bush was trying to destroy America. I thought he was being an idiot and perhaps being used by warmongers who had their own interests in mind, but that's not remotely the same as Pub allegations against Dems.

There's also the issue that there appears to be no rational explanation for Trump's policies other than a) he's a fucking idiot; or b) he's trying to destroy the country.
