"Att två utbildade apotekare i Kiruna utvisas samtidigt som det råder brist på utbildade apotekare har inget att göra med kriminalitet. Det har att göra med att den här regeringen styrs av ett rasistiskt parti. Ett parti som är berett att gå väldigt mycket längre."

Jag har en sak gemensamt med Åkesson. Jag saknar också det Sverige jag växte upp i. Men vi saknar nog olika saker. Jag saknar solidariteten. Jag saknar när skolor inte var vinstdrivande företag. Jag saknar när vi jobbade förebyggande och inte slängde barn i fängelse.

“Have you heard about the President’s unique style of strategic ambiguity?” is simply not how we were presented Joe Biden’s withdrawal from 🇦🇫, after everyone spent years saying they wanted an end to the Forever War.

Yeah, you ever watch any of those lectures with Dr. Barkley (spelling?) who is an ADHD expert? His whole thing was: if you’re going to do one thing, have a notebook so that everything goes in exactly the same place all the time. That’s your working memory. Sounds like that but on steroids.

IMO “they can’t do that” is a valid reaction, but not a valid response. It’s often my reaction, and for good reason: I’m shocked, of course, but also we need to mark the line they’re crossing still after all this time. But that can’t be where it ends. The next step must be: how do we stop them?

Congress rejected some of Trump’s proposed budget cuts. OMB is making them anyway.
President Trump and the Office of Management and Budget are accused of violating the separation of powers by attempting to unilaterally withhold funds that Congress specifically appropriated.

I dunno, I’d have to look, but it looked he got tackled and according to the Swedes in the booth it was because he was too mouthy about the fact that he got mugged. Pretty soft reason to end up with a red card, but whatever. What’s done is done.
