“The Trump administration is considering a radical overhaul of the U.S. refugee system that would slash the program to its bare bones while giving preference to English speakers, white South Africans and Europeans who oppose migration, according to documents obtained by The New York Times.

The proposals, some of which already have gone into effect, would transform a decades-old program aimed at helping the world’s most desperate people into one that conforms to Mr. Trump’s vision of immigration — which is to help mostly white people who say they are being persecuted while keeping the vast majority of other people out.”

I like it I just wish we got more, and in systematic way

I've heard lately he's almost starting to work as a backhanded weakness to the republicans. Basically reflecting the pattern of the left wing influencers that make hard right turns (Dave Rueben, Jimmy Dore and really looking like the rest of the young turks are working their way to the same pattern).

IE in short, "The (my side), isn't (my siding) hard enough... you should vote for the oppsite side until they get their shit together, and then spends the next 4 years silent about the opposition while talking about how bad his own side is... before suddenly making an about turn and just flat out supporting the other side.

Perhaps. I think he, like MTG, is betting on MAGA failing, and wants a history of doubting the administration—but also not losing their own supporters.

I also don’t think he wants to get shot—which I think is on the table 😇

They competed for the support of the same type of mind and reserved for each other the hatred of the heretic. But their practice showed how closely they are related. To both, the real enemy, the man with whom they had nothing in common and whom they could not hope to convince, is the liberal of the old type. While to the Nazi the communist, and to the communist the Nazi, and to both the socialist, are potential recruits who are made of the right timber, although they have listened to false prophets, they both know that there can be no compromise between them and those who really believe in individual freedom.
