"I, like many Venezuelans, was very supportive of President Trump..." "Betrayed. We feel betrayed. More than betrayed. Beyond betrayed...” www.nbcnews.com/news/latino/...

There is still beauty in this world

I assume the reason is that other users can't unilaterally decide to throw Mark Zuckerberg into prison

If you're feeling despair it's because you have a moral compass. It means you're not empty on the inside - that you nurse hope and a sense of justice in a cage next to your heart. You're one of my people and I'll stand with you. There are more of us than they want you to believe. Hold fast.

Don’t let anyone tell you this guy is popular or that the country is trending his way. Just isn’t true. Never was.

Important data to remember.

"He's running the country like it is a reality TV show." Former US editor-at-large for the Financial Times, Gillian Tett, discusses how US President Donald Trump is taking on his second term in office after ordering the expansion of a detention centre in Guantanamo Bay. #Newsnight

Donald Trump will be building housing for migrants in Guantanamo Bay, a federal judge slapped down the White House in court, and more in today's evening news update. open.substack.com/pub/aaronpar...
