Improving regulation of inward migration is reasonable.
But Republican
leaders partner with America's fascists, maliciously insulting and threatening our Mexican & Latin American neighbors.
I
fear America's ultra-right menace!
Everyone should beware.

Thumb-Up, Assholes
Local stewardship & locally-led development weaken w/o controls over
licensing, immigration & investment.
The USA widely regulates inward migration; these laws & penalties need revision.
Government shutdown when one suggested remedy can't gain consensus = crazy
America politico thumb up butt

Dog-Eat-Dog will Eat You
1) Did Trump "drain the Swamp?" -- NO
2) Did Mexico pay for Trump's Wall? -- NO
America please return Trump® & crew to their penthouse lives. We're
conned by flim-flam as political Hyenas kill our nation.
Nixon, Sarah Palin,
mini-Bush, Pence, Paul Ryan = parasite scavengers; The Clintons, Biden, Pelosi, Barack Obama = parasite scavengers
One American psalm preserves ineffective government: "MY" party's ninny is better than YOUR party's sociopath.
We all lose from binary justification of America's political elite. Most
of these people, both Red & Blue, are corrupt servants to militarism &
"national security" government. Professional politicos lose an election &
then quietly go about gathering money, releasing a soundburp every few months.
Homeless kids in winter, ill Americans struggling for treatment,
dog-eat-dog capitalism feeds off the weakest. Face Fact = You are among the weaker. You're an upcoming meal.

Politicians Shut-Up America
Whether red or blue, Republican or Democrat, typical politicians are ARROGANT -- struggling for prestige, power, predominance, personal profit. Public Trust? ... pawn
It's wrong to Shutdown US Federal services and installations. Republican / Trump ® tax cuts cost many hundred times more than any wall! Politicians now hold citizen health & property for ransom. EXTORTION
This winter America's health is threatened: the FDA is gutted by forced furlough; about 2/3 of Centers for Disease Control workers (CDC) are shutout from work. Even you rich Republicans gamble your lives by taking away health workers and discontinuing scientific projects.
Politicos are entrusted to hold our keys & maintain common property, perhaps worth thousands of times more than any funding struggle. Politicos don't own our public property. Politicos shouldn't gamble our lives. It's an affront: politician's failures shut us out and threaten life.
Unbearable Political Arrogance - should trigger OUTRAGE.
Save Us from Politicos = Our community's true enemies.

America Muddied by Trump
Donald Trump & his Republican allies corrupt America.
The furor over lawyer Michael Cohen is manipulated. The bottom line is at least two women were paid to keep quiet & stifle criticism that might cost votes.
Who was behind the sexual misconduct?
Who funded payoffs?
Cohen & the Trump Organization's Allen Weisselberg were working for their boss. There's no suggestion either had any personal interest. Neither of them dipped their wick, except in the money pot.
So America discusses scandal, while Trump-connected henchmen loot the Treasury, militarize the world, scheme to payout minimum / below subsistence, and rape our empire's land, air & sea.

Masters of the Universe
Miss Universe video news arrives from Thailand to us in Europe of Miss
USA, Sarah Rose Summers of Nebraska, jeering, mocking & laughing at
contestants from Vietnam & Cambodia. Teamed with Miss Colombia &
Miss Australia, three meanies humiliate [themselves, their families,
their nations, humankind?]
After a storm of criticism, the nasties dramatically offered on-camera apologies, written in English, to colleagues with poor English. In Bangkok, minor effort could translate the apology to Vietnamese & Cambodian. Evident insincerity.
Missed the clip? (link)
Do they kiss, forget, make friends?
Better not to watch.
Ugly.

Burning Bush
The family of former US President George HW Bush mourns a great loss, joined by many Americans and others around the world.
Bush's responsibilities as US president (and CIA Director, and Vice-President under Reagan) required he make tough choices. Bush surely did some wonderful things with his life. But he also caused much death & destruction - we still must deal with the ripple effects of his grave errors.
Is there an afterlife dispensing Divine Justice? Leaving aside his divisive Willie Horton strategy, and his "Read My Lips" bullshit, if there is judgement, here are two reasons Bush now burns in Hell:
1) The USA has funded & encouraged development in Central & South America by wealthy oligarchs and multinationals at the expense of local populations. Right-wing governments were assisted in repressing dissent. We supported the leaders of repressive regimes, we trained & funded paramilitary, and we were ultimately responsible for death squads and tyrannical military that killed tens of thousands across Central America during the years 1980 to 1992. Many communities lost teachers, labor organizers, religious leaders, medical staff, etc. to brutal murders we lay at the feet of Bush. The violence continues today, with refugees and asylum seekers from the region now troubling US President Trump.
2) Iraqi forces retreating from Kuwait in late Feb / early March 1991 were massacred along major highways inside Iraq. Civilians were also killed indiscriminately on these Highways of Death. Many of the soldiers were conscripts, who'd caused no violence themselves; some were killed when surrendering. The families of these thousands of dead and wounded were thus given good reason to dislike the USA. Some turned to extreme fundamentalism, and probably rejoiced when Bush croaked. We must deal with the aftermath of Bush's foolish massacres. The Iraq errors of Bush-the-elder were compounded by the infernal mistakes of Pres. George W. Bush, his rotten son.

Japanese Justice? Another Japanese Auto Scandal
Another Japanese Auto Scandal? ... or nationalist purge?
Japan's top foreign businessman Carlos Ghosn now suffers discredit in Tokyo Detention House, under arrest by Japanese prosecutors. The former Nissan Motor Chairman (along with Nissan's only American boardmember Greg Kelly) suffer extraordinarily -- perhaps for being devilish gaijin interlopers?
The arrests & orchestrated disgrace send Japan's unwelcome message to the world. Two foreign businessmen are accused of financial reporting crimes, though clearly neither could file such complex paperwork on their own in Japanese.
Some dimensions to this scandal explained:
http://japantimes.co.jp/community/2018/12/01/issues/carlos-ghosns-arrest-japanese-criminal-justice-corporate-governance
Avoid Nissan & Mitsubishi Motors!
Many quiet voices discuss what is happening -- but we remember the nail which sticks up gets pounded down "出る釘は打たれる"

Paramilitary Play: Soiled Balls
Annually after Halloween, the NFL dresses-up for paramilitary "salute to
service" in cooperation with the American armed forces.
Desensitized America's already too militarized.
Bring the troops home for Christmas instead!

England Dismisses Europe
As the UK withdraws from the European Union, typical folk suffer new
costs.
EU university fees, if any, are now equal to all from the EU as if domestic. Sweden has free tuition for EU students; Brits will soon lose this subsidy. Surely the thousands of UK young people studying in Europe help UK trade after graduation.
A brighter future requires better relations & understanding. Arrogant fortress Britain is the darker future.

Same Old, Same Old
Two Democratic Party leaders best described as "venerable" are Rep. Nancy Pelosi and Sen. Dianne Feinstein. Sadly, each is far more concerned with their personal positioning at the peak of power than with developing progressive policies. Each worked with Bush-Cheney to attack Iraq (at huge cost), magnifying our enemies, building the US federal security state, and starving American communities of funds -- wasting many lives at home & abroad.
Here's a well-written criticism:
https://www.thenation.com/article/dianne-feinstein-isnt-too-old-but-she-is-too-out-of-touch
I'm wholly dissatisfied with the corporatist Democratic machine; these two spiders control large sticky webs. And Big Money Democratic politico Steny Hoyer is even worse. The corruption of US politics in both major parties runs very deep. To progress we must confront these rigid oldsters: "Thank You for your service. Now git!"

Puʻuloa: Hawaiians Remember invasion
50 years before Pearl Harbor?
Americans remember the 7 December 1941
surprise attack on Pearl Harbor. But 50 years prior, the USA was just one of
many major nations enjoying treaties of friendship & commerce with the
militarily-neutral Hawaiian Kingdom.
US support for violent overthrow, aggressive colonization, and property
confiscation (esp. lands taken for the US military) makes very many Hawaiians
unhappy. Today.

Brintegrate?
One driver to Brexit are British people raised to believe they are inherently better than European neighbors.
Such people, however few, represent deep educational failure, and shortsightedness in building future foundations for peace & security.
Farage, ultranationalists, and the National Front can only "win" through taking away our mutual security and hard-fought peace.
