The free trillion-dollar bill on the ground is persuading politicians who are anti-China to become pro-immigration, because, among the many many benefits of liberalizing immigration law, one of them is scoring off the brain drain of a geopolitical adversary

CALL TO ACTIVISM
CALL TO ACTIVISM@CalltoActivism·
To Ralph Norman, the Congressman of the great state of South Carolina, You say it is “obnoxious” for taxpayers to be responsible for the loans of others. Well sir, we did a little digging and it turns out you had $306,520 in PPP loans forgiven. Every penny of that was money that came from taxpayers and it wasn’t paid back. Here’s the big question: why is it ok for YOU, but not students trying to make their lives better? I think we know the reason. First, it’s because you represent the same SELFISH thinking of your entire party: “It’s good for me but not for thee.” And lastly, it’s because you’re an asshole.

This is absurd & borders on state sponsored terrorism IMO. These 8 are honorable human beings. In the US in particular we must stand up for and do whatever necessary to protect @denniswhkwok & @AnnaKwokFY.

Despite debt-ceiling kabuki, CBO just projected national debt will get much worse. America needs a Dem. presidential candidate who has slain the debt monster. There is one person like that – Gina Raimondo, who slayed monster as governor of Rhode Island. cbo.gov/publication/59…

All entirely predictable - but the people who were correct were insulted, called “remoaners” and “gloomsters” and “anti-British,” and now it’s too late to do anything about it. The UK economy will suffer as long as #Brexit continues.

Brexit "has been tragic for UK business," Brewdog CEO James Watt says "It's massively handicapped UK companies that do business in Europe with zero benefit," he tells @lizzzburden trib.al/7XVq6w5

In midtown Manhattan and several similar places, having a residence, hotel room, parking or restaurant table is extremely expensive, taking up public road space is free. Needs to change nytimes.com/2023/06/26/nyr…

If Trump was POTUS today, Russia would have won or be winning the war. Moments like these demand a serious leader that is strong, steady, and wise. President Biden is that leader.
Trygve Olson@trygveolson

When bringing Belarusians fighting for democracy to DC, there were 2 Senators I could always count on to meet with them personally @SenatorMcCain1 & @JoeBiden. I disagree with Biden on several issues, but in the last few days, I keep thinking, thank god he is President.

Three thoughts this morning: 1) Putin’s invasion of Ukraine last year will go down in history as one of the biggest fuckups & biggest miscalculations ever made by a major figure on the world’s stage. 2) Joe Biden’s response to Putin’s invasion, Biden’s strong defense of Ukraine, and Biden’s leadership in assembling a unified worldwide coalition to stand WITH Ukraine and stand AGAINST Russia will go down in history as one of the greatest defenses of freedom & sovereignty ever put together on the world’s stage. 3) The world is so fortunate Trump lost in 2020.

We are normalizing treason. The fact pattern is clear: Russia worked to elect Trump. He won. Now MAGA is pro-Putin. Trump/DeSantis push Putin position of “regional conflict.” If they win, Russia wins. Democracy loses. America loses. Pick a side.

Exactly 16 months ago, residents of Kiev were fortifying their city to prevent a Russian invasion. Today, residents of Moscow are fortifying their city to also prevent a Russian invasion. I remain a master strategist.

@RepJamesComer This is the facts: The GOP is Lying, no one interfered in the investigation in the US Attorney for Delaware. In fact the he sent a letter to Jim Jordan and said no one interfered and AG Garland gave complete independence. 5 years and nothing. twitter.com/IAmPoliticsGir…
PoliticsGirl@IAmPoliticsGirl

@SenRonJohnson @FBI All the evidence was turned over to the US district attorney in Delaware, but you know that Ron. And Hunter IS being charged for tax crimes, but know that too. Stop dining out on the President’s son. The jig is up.
