What are you talking about? People emigrating (after an enormous genocide) is how this country was made!
Conservatives love the concept that private charities should be the ones who provide, "hand outs" (e.g. free food) and things like health care to those who can't afford it. Except they always conveniently neglect the fact that all the charities in the world combined are but a fraction of a percent of government spending on similar things.
Furthermore, charities cannot hope to match the efficiency of governments providing the same services. Even the most inefficient government agencies have overhead far lower than the best-run charities.
Governments don't have to solicit for donations. They aren't beholden to the market or bad economic times. They can pool bureaucratic resources across multiple programs and take advantage of economies of scale that the biggest charities could only dream of.
The truth is that if you actually want to help the most desperate people of the world, government programs are the most efficient and effective way to do so.
Thousands of tons of plastic pollution

Reminder: The Bill of Rights applies to all persons living or residing in the United States. Whether or not you're a citizen is irrelevant. Green card, visa, no visa, etc doesn't matter.
Everyone gets freedom of speech in the US. Everyone.
My wild guess: It's the increasing atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide.
It's a well-known effect that increasing CO2 levels makes people dumber when it goes above 1000 ppm. When atmospheric CO2 goes from 200 ppm (last century) to 400 ppm (the current state) indoor CO2 levels can reach that 1000 ppm state that much quicker.
So yeah: Yet another reason to stop using fossil fuels.
If they really want to get Trump and Musk to care the picture should have white children.
No! Don't make your mother (or wife) climb a ladder! Just change that lightbulb (or whatever) for her.
(And damn old people for being so impatient! A single bulb can be out for a day or two! The sky will not fall in that time!)
You jest but this implies everything is fine... Now.
I'd argue that the most inhuman behavior is coming from the Texas legislature.
Trump will pardon them. It's only a matter of time.
