In 40 years from now, US citizens will repeat this same insane process on immigration and energy as the population in the United States approaches 500 million.
Republicans, in a new fascist form, will attempt this same insane exercise over and over again until they can make slavery necessary as "national emergency" through "executive order" because everyone in the US knows Republicans are a waste of time and #tax money.
Please prove me wrong as we recall #Nixon.

Last time we went to the Moon 'Tricky Dicky' was in the Oval Office and America was embroiled in a War Of Choice in a foreign country.

Anyone else feeling a strong sense of Déjà vu? Or is it just me?

Look Nixon worked HARD to be a corrupt a-hole. Trump was born into it. I'm tired of inheritance overshadowing hard work.

#FakeNews?

Are you disputing that #China helped #Pakistan with #nuclear tech?

>> #Pakistan has had nukes much longer than most people think…

The friendship between Pakistan and China goes back more than 5 decades, with #YahyaKhan acting as the facilitator for #Nixon's visit to China in 1972.

«Tutti gli uomini del presidente», compie 50 anni il film sull’inchiesta giornalistica che portò alla caduta di Richard Nixon

Il film di Alan Pakula uscito nelle sale Usa il 4 aprile 1976 ripercorre il «Watergate»: non solo uno «scandalo», ma la prova che, per salvare sé stesso, l’establishment è capace di mentire sistematicamente

OF course, the protections under the Endangered Species Act also help protect other things - like the marine #ecosystems that the Gulf coast states - from Florida to Texas - rely on for tourism, recreation and fisheries. Do they really want more Deepwater Horizons? More #OilSpills? More abandoned wells seeping oil into the waters?

Is there a book about, history of, or even list of amazing people from the US who fled to Canada during #Nixon and Vietnam, people who had a big influence on Canadian society or just in general?

#Topical #Canada #migration

For example, Jane Jacobs, or another example from @pluralistic
