This is so dumb...

A real crisis is growing in Japan as one of the countries staple foods skyrockets in price. Forcing Japanese consumers and businesses to scramble to increase imports from markets like South Korea to try and meet demand and lower prices. #Japan #SouthKorea #Inflation #Food #ForeignPolicy

Massive blackouts in Spain, Portugal, and parts of France. These countries emergency services are swinging into action but are reporting it will still be many hours before power is restored. Authorities are struggling to explain the cause and are urging calm. #Spain #Portugal #France #Infastructure

Media and others are too focused on his poll numbers. Trump does not give a damn about what the public thinks of him. He just lurches from one self induced crisis or criminal conspiracy to the next. #Trump

Who is it? 😂

Thank goodness, get rid of this clown. #Hegseth #SignalGate #DoD #Pentagon #Military

I am deeply worried about tomorrow and what Trump may attempt to do with such powers if he tries to invoke the Insurrection Act. If so history will remember the cowardice of the Republican party in defense of our rights. #Trump #InsurrectionAct #Authoritarianism #GOP #Corruption

Trump ousts IRS chief days after appointment amid Musk-Bessent feud

This article from last summer shows a lot of what was going on in El Salvador before Trump was even elected. Human rights groups and other countries have been sounding the alarm for years. Now we see Trump adopting these same tactics, these are dark times. #ElSalvador #HumanRights #Trump

The emergency is here, now. Its time for the public to act. We are deporting people to foreign concentration camps. Its time to start calling it what it is. #Trump #ElSalvador #Justice #ConcentrationCamps #Immigration #ForeignPolicy

I feel like at this point they are literally just too stupid to insult. The capitalists on Wall Street...are communists, lol. Elect clowns expect the circus, this nightmarishly stupid. #Trump #Boebert #House #WtF

Once again we our hang our fellow American citizens in Puerto Rico out to dry as their electrical system continues to collapse with no signs of help from the federal government in sight. #PuertoRico #Trump #US

It is good to see Dems at least trying to do something finally. Senator Van Hollen is making the right moves showing up in El Salvador and demanding the release of his constituent. We need more action like this! #Dems #VanHollen #ElSalvador #ForeignPolicy #Trump #Justice #ArmandoGarcia

With the trade war in full swing, the U.S. has lost access to critical rare earths, vital for weapons systems, batteries, and tech like smartphones. This isn’t just bad policy, it’s a strategic blunder in a trade war we’re poorly positioned to win. #China #Trump #Tariffs #TradeWar

Trump’s trade war escalation now threatens Boeing, one of America’s key manufacturers, at a time when it’s already reeling from major issues with its planes and spacecraft. A reckless move with serious consequences for the U.S's most important aerospace company. #Trump #China #Tariffs #Boeing

If Kristi Noem can go down to El Salvador and take concentration camp selfies, then DOJ can figure out where Abrego Garcia is. Just start jailing people for contempt of court until they find out.

Outrageous injustice, deporting people for defending Palestinian rights is not justice, it’s complicity. Criticizing ethnic cleansing in Gaza isn’t antisemitism. This shows just how much influence Israel holds over U.S. policy. #MahmoudKhalil #ForeignPolicy #Israel #Gaza #Trump

A striking shift in Japan’s defense posture as the Defense Minister signals readiness to join NATO exercises in Germany. This move reflects a broader pivot from self-defense to a force capable of projecting power beyond its borders. #Japan #NATO #Military #ForeignPolicy

India is advancing a trade deal with the U.S., finalizing terms for the first phase despite recent U.S. tariff hikes. With bilateral trade surpassing $129B in 2024, India aims to double this to $500B by 2030, signaling a strong commitment to partnership. #India #Trump #Tariffs #ForeignPolicy

Hard to see why Pakistan would pursue deeper ties with the US under Trump, given the instability he brings. With China and other regional powers offering more predictable partnerships, the strategic calculus may shift quickly. #Pakistan #US #Trump #ForeignPolicy #Minerals

Talks are underway to prevent a new Congo–Rwanda war after Rwanda-backed M23 rebels seized key eastern Congolese cities. Tensions are rising fast, and another Central African conflict could spiral into a full-blown regional war. #Congo #Rwanda #M23 #Africa #ForeignPolicy

Israel continues its relentless killing of innocent civilians in Gaza and the West Bank. As military operations in Gaza and increasing instances of Israeli settler violence in the West Bank continue to pour fuel onto this modern day holocaust. #Gaza #WestBank #Israel #WarCrimes #UN #ForeignPolicy

The brewing tensions between Turkey and Israel over Syria aren’t just diplomatic friction. Netanyahu’s far-right government is increasingly acting with expansionist intent, echoing dangerous historical parallels, similar to Germany's quest for lebensraum in WW2. #Turkey #Syria #Israel #ForeignPolicy

The damage to trust in the US and our soft power is severe. It will take decades if its even possible at all to recover from the damage Trump has inflicted in just a matter of days. This is nothing short of pure negligence and stupidity. #Trump #Tariffs #ForeignPolicy #TradeWar #Trade

Macron is urgently pushing for a ceasefire in Gaza, even as Netanyahu, emboldened by Trump’s support, intensifies Israel’s assault. Meanwhile, settler violence in the West Bank surges, with the Israeli military largely standing by. #Gaza #France #Egypt #Trump #ForeignPolicy #WestBank

Ukraine claims to have discovered a significant number of Chinese citizens fighting for Russia in Ukraine. While Beijing’s denials do little to dispel the matter. #Ukraine #China #ForeignPolicy #Military #Russia

Trump orders himself a Soviet style parade for his birthday. How is this not wasteful spending? Where is the Department of Government Efficiency on this one? #Trump #Corruption #Military #Dictator

This is an amazing level of innovation I look forward to seeing if the application of this technology to larger structures takes off. #Japan #Science #3DPrinting #Trains

Germany reverses its once-welcoming refugee policy amid a wave of terror attacks and a shifting political landscape. The rise of both far-right and far-left parties signals deep polarization and growing fears over national security and identity. #Germany #Immigration #ForeignPolicy

​France's decision to return the skulls of King Toera and two warriors to Madagascar is a significant step toward rectifying colonial injustices. Honoring the dignity of those wronged by colonialism is essential for healing and justice. #Restitution #Justice #HumanRights #France #ForeignPolicy

The fact that they are refusing to return this guy and asking the courts to prevent an order to do so is fucking disgusting. #Trump #Immigration #ElSalvador #KilmarAbregoGarcia #Justice #SCOTUS

​Finland's decision to exit the Ottawa Treaty and resume landmine production is deeply concerning. Landmines inflict suffering long after conflicts end. This move highlights the insecurity Finland feels amid Russian threats but risks repeating tragic mistakes. #Finland #HumanRights #NATO

France floating tariffs on Big Tech as a response to Trump’s reckless trade war is exactly the kind of bold countermeasure we need. If the U.S. weaponizes trade, allies are right to push back, especially against tech giants. #France #BigTech #Tariffs #Trump #TradeWar #ForeignPolicy

Sri Lanka’s economic crisis is set to deepen under Trump’s tariffs. While the pain grows, Modi likely sees an opening to expand India’s regional influence amid the chaos. #India #SriLanka #Tariffs #Trump #Trade #ForeignPolicy

Stop saying Kilmar Abrego Garcia was mistakenly deported; the Trump regime did what they meant to do. We know they tried to force El Salvador to take several women & claim they were gang members also. There's ample evidence he was no criminal, from previous investigations. The cruelty is the point.

This is just another day in Gaza at this point. Israel has repeatedly attacked and killed doctors, medics, first responders, women, children, and the elderly. Israel must be held accountable for this modern day holocaust. #Israel #Gaza #Genocide #ForeignPolicy #UN #ICC #WarCrimes
