elhadjimuradIt really saddened me when I learned that the "Cato Institute" wasn't teaching people to attack when least expected.
petersuberUpdate. The report the #Trump #DOJ just took down was originally released in June 2024, during the #Biden administration. But the Biden National Institute of Justice (#NIJ) wasn't the only research org to conclude that most domestic terrorism in the US is from the right wing.
The conservative #CatoInstitute (@cato) reaffirmed that conclusion last week.
According to Cato research, there were 620 politically-motivated murders in the US in the last half-century. 391 were from the right and 65 from the left. (The rest were from Islamism, separatism, or other ideologies.) Politically-motivated right-wing murder is more than 6x as frequent as politically-motivated left-wing murder.
These numbers do not count the deaths from the 9/11 attacks because they were not domestic terrorism.
See the numbers in the Cato Institute report from last week …

#Trump’s #BigBill Would Let Him Expand His #LosAngeles #ImmigrationCrackdown ‘Everywhere’
“If it works out well in L.A., expect it everywhere,” a Trump official says of the admin’s plans for #militarized #ICERaids around the country

"Donald Trump’s '#BigBeautifulBill' wouldn’t just force millions of #poor people off their #HealthInsurance and #FoodAssistance to help pay for more #TaxCuts for the rich.
"The Trump #TaxBill would steer tens of billions of dollars to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) for #detention capacity, employee bonuses, and to hire new agents. It would supercharge ICE’s ability to conduct raids, and allow the administration to expand the campaign of terror it’s waging on immigrants in Los Angeles to blue cities around the country.
"ICE’s aggressive worksite raids and courthouse arrests throughout the Los Angeles area have, of course, inspired a wave of protests — giving the president an excuse to send the U.S. military to a Democratic city, something he’s long fantasized about, while inspiring demonstrations across the country.
" 'This bill would give Donald Trump the ability to do what he’s doing [in California] on a scale we really haven’t seen before,' says #DavidBier, the director of immigration studies at the #CatoInstitute, a libertarian think tank. 'He will be able to replicate this militarized approach to Los Angeles across maybe dozens of American cities.'
"For Trump and key officials, including immigration-crackdown policy architect #StephenMiller, this is exactly the point, with Los Angeles currently being used as an autocratic staging area. They want to replicate this militarized, ramped-up blitz of ICE raids, backed by the U.S. armed forces, in several other Democratic strongholds — particularly if larger-scale protests spread to other cities.
"As Rolling Stone previously reported, the president and his senior officials have already mapped out near-term plans for how to further ratchet up the already tense blitz of ICE operations, especially in the coming days in Los Angeles, where the federal agents are now being protected by Trump’s literal troop deployment to the city, against the wishes of Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom.
"Sources familiar with the matter tell Rolling Stone that senior Trump administration officials are closely monitoring the situation in L.A. as a test case for what they want to do soon in places such as #Chicago, #philadelphia #BostonMA, or the #WashingtonDC, area."

WYM ModDiscrepancies in Trump's tariff claims raise eyebrows. A Cato Institute analysis reveals that actual trade-weighted average tariffs differ significantly from the rates announced by Trump. For instance, it's reported that China's average is just 3%, dramatically lower than the claimed 67%. These findings highlight questionable methodologies in tariff calculations, spurring skepticism among economists.

Gas und Öl statt Klimaschutz: Wer Trumps Pläne nach Deutschland bringt –
eine @correctiv_org Recherche von @AnnikaJoeres @elenakolb @katahuth
"#CORRECTIV hat Geldflüsse verfolgt, ist politischen und wirtschaftlichen Verbindungen nachgegangen, die von den USA über Ungarn bis hinein in die Spitzenpositionen der deutschen Politik reichen. Das Ergebnis: In Deutschland gehört zu diesem Netzwerk nicht nur das #PrometheusInstitut von Frank #Schäffler. Auch CDU-nahe Verbände, wirtschaftsliberale Institutionen wie das Institut der deutschen Wirtschaft (#IW) und Politiker der #FDP und #CDU sind eng mit umstrittenen Organisationen in den USA verbandelt – einige profitieren offenbar auch finanziell.
Zwar haben viele der Ökonomen und neoliberalen Thinktanks nichts oder wenig mit den irrationalen und rassistischen Ideen von Donald #Trump gemein, aber sie teilen in der #Klimapolitik einige Überzeugungen – etwa die, noch weiter Öl und Gas zu nutzen. Viele stehen der FDP und, wie unsere Recherche zeigt, zunehmend auch der CDU nahe. Neben Trump kommt noch ein zweiter autoritärer Staatschef ins Spiel: der ungarische Ministerpräsident Viktor #Orbán. Er verbündet sich mit konservativen Organisationen in Deutschland, bis hin zu einem CDU-Thinktank. […]
Die Ziele der häufig reinen Männerzirkel: Sie fordern einen ungebremsten Markt. Und wenden sich gegen schnell wirksame, klimapolitische Maßnahmen wie ein #Verbrenner-Verkaufsverbot, ein #Tempolimit oder einen Ausstieg aus #Gas und #Kohle. Sie wollen ihre Überzeugungen global verbreiten und damit Regierungen beeinflussen."
