Elon Musk lived in apartheid South Africa until he was 17. David Sacks, the venture capitalist who has become a fundraiser for Donald Trump and a troll of Ukraine, left aged five, and grew up in a South African diaspora family in Tennessee. Peter Thiel spent years of childhood in South Africa and Namibia, where his father was involved in uranium mining as part of the apartheid regime's clandestine drive to acquire nuclear weapons.

The cost of imprisonment -- including who benefits and who pays -- is a major part of the national discussion around criminal justice policy. But prisons and jails are just one piece of the criminal justice system and the amount of media and policy attention that the various players get is not necessarily proportional to their influence. In this first-of-its-kind report, we find that the system of mass incarceration costs the government and families of justice-involved people at least $182 billion every year. read more

The influence of Christianity has declined in America in recent years, but a Gallup poll published in March showed that 68% of Americans still identify as Christian. In 2020, 71% of white Americans who attended church regularly voted for Trump. In 2016, white evangelicals made up one fifth of all voters ' and they overwhelmingly supported Trump over Hillary Clinton (77% to 16%). According to the Pew Research Center, 85% of white evangelicals favor the GOP in 2024. In recent years, many evangelical voters have moved from backing a particular candidate or party into Christian nationalism. (Christianity Today defines Christian nationalism as the "belief that the American nation is defined by Christianity, and that the government should take active steps to keep it that way.") But God, Trump and the Republican Party are not synonymous. North Carolina event, Guillermo Maldonado, a pastor from Miami and longtime Trump ally, told attendees this election wasn't just about American politics. read more

A group of more than 70 House Republicans introduced legislation this week that would make elements of the 2017 Trump tax cuts permanent, delivering a huge windfall to the rich and choking off more federal revenue at a time when Republican fearmongering over the national debt is at a fever pitch. read more

"---- it. Biden should just give Ukraine nukes, and cut through all the rest of the --------. If Putin really wants to dance, then start up the music already.

Bill Clinton negotiated the treaty betweeb Russia and Ukraine which caused Ukraine to give up their nuclear weapons in exchange for a promuxe that Russia would never inade ukraine so, considering Russia's violation of that treaty it would seem only fair that they get their nuclear weapons back which, had they been retained, would have prevented Psycho Putin from invading snd murdering thousands of people....oh wait Our President elect doesn't like to be criticized or called a traitor for his continued friendship, trust and even sharing of Top Secret in ormation he stole from the White House when he lost reelection in the 2020 election and he still has not returned those documents to the National Archives; probably because he shipped them all to the Kremlin.
your "jUkrainians don"'joke" is funny to Ukrainians who have a perfect right to blame the U.S. for allowing the invasion and witholding the weapons they needed tp effectively defend their nation from the invasion which Russia had promised to never do. SAnd now to add insult to injury PsychoPitin's bitch just got elected President. Republicans have Ukrainian blood on their hands and I take that serioysly enough that i will probably never speak to members of my family ever again. Family ties are important but not more important than condoning the murder of thousands of people and voting for Trump in the recent election was exactly that. I will believe that for the rest of my life.

Unfortunately RFK Jr. is so physically repulsive that a sex scandal is unlikely blic healthcare in the U.S.and with this Congress just being completely crazy isn't enough to disqualify a trump appointee from being in charge of public healthcare in the u.S. That clown will likely be approved even though he is bat s**t cray! but then so is the Orange Pedophile who appointed him strictly as a payback for help in the election and certainly not because he is actually qualified to run HHS. Watched his cousin, Caroline Krnnedy, y eI have about her lunatic cousitsterday who basically said the same thing soI'LL BE HONEST i AM SO GLAD i WILL ALWAYS BE ABLE TO SAY i DIDN'T VOTE FOR THAT PIECE OF FILTH.mOST FORMER bUSH voters now have additional shame to wear for the rest of their lives. If I had voted for Bush or Trump I would, at least, have the decency to surrender my voter's registration card but those lunatics will continue harming America in every election in the future! I must ask, why do they hate America so much? That assh88e will do much harm to many people from that position. Republicans are going to own this monumentally incompetent, unqualigied and mostly insane administration. God damn I miss Obama and Biden! Sanity and competence was great! but we won't see any of that for the next four years.Sardinia is looking like a good place to be for the next few years! I may just go buy a house for $1.00 and spend the next four years fixing it up. Fo more afluent folks there aew four year cruises available

"There's a four year cruise for those looking to escape Trump"

"With approximately half of Americans unhappy with the results of the recent presidential election, numerous travel companies have decided to pitch viable offers to people who want to move abroad.

The second-largest airline in Canada, WestJet Airlines, published ads offering Californians "one-way flights to Canada" in the lead-up to Nov. 5 while British travel company advertised flights back to London from New York, Las Vegas and Orlando as get-out-of-USA-free flights."

Can't afford those choices but I can sell my condo here in Fort Lauderdale and move to Sardinia where i can buy a house for $1.00. The more I think about it the better it sounds to me!
