Trump Destroyed Iran's Nuke Program That Obama Legitimized Source link
Photograph by Nathaniel St. Clair No matter how much Teflon Trump seeks to let nothing stick, it is now quite clear that the United States has suffered an ignoble defeat in Iran. His promise of an “unconditional surrender” is more empty that his campaign promises “not to start a war” and to be a “peace president.” Thrashing around for a way to claim victory, Trump simply declares the US the winner. So desperate is he for global acquiescence to his mendacity, he has opened attacks on world leaders who do not support his madness (including some of his own MAGA…

Photograph by Nathaniel St. Clair Back in February, the Trump administration announced sweeping overhauls that would radically weaken the Operational Test for the 2030 Census. The test is meant to serve as a dress rehearsal of sorts, allowing the Census to evaluate its operational mechanics before scaling them up nationwide. And it would appear that some of the administration’s most important changes are intended to undercount immigrant populations, though other populations will be affected as well. As we noted in February, the administration sought several large-scale alterations that would undermine the utility of the test, including slashing the number of…

United States ruler Donald Trump has attacked Pope Leo, the patriarch of the Catholic Church, as being “terrible for foreign policy.” The social media assault comes as Pope Leo emerged as a vocal critic of the US-Israeli military campaign against Iran. Christian Nationalism and Trump’s Weaponization of Religion The pope described Trump’s threat to destroy Iranian civilization as “truly unacceptable,” warning it amounted to “a threat against an entire people.” Pope Leo XIV also asked the U.S. rulers for some “deep reflection” on the treatment of migrants. Trump, Immigration, and ICE Trump responded in a post on Truth Social on Sunday…
The first year of the second Trump administration has been defined by an economic and foreign policy that treats the movement of people and goods around the globe as not merely suspect but actively harmful to Americans’ well-being. In January, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick set the bar for demonstrating how bizarre—and wrong—that logic is. While addressing the World Economic Forum’s annual gathering in Davos, Switzerland, Lutnick declared that the decades-long project of economic liberalism had been, in fact, a terrible mistake. “The Trump administration and I are here to make a very clear point: Globalization has failed the West and…
