The #US -
1. Largest historical contributor to #climatechange
2. Continues to promote #fossilfuels
3. Stopped #aid to #poor countries
4. Stopped #migration from poor countries - reduced #remittances
5. Tariffed poor countries - reduced foreign revenues
6. Now denying climate change

When do #humanrights experts label this as what it is - #genocide - at a global scale?

According to the World Bank, remittances to low- and middle-income countries reached $860 billion in 2024, surpassing foreign direct investment and official development assistance combined.

"Court records confirm what civil liberties advocates long warned would happen: Immigration and Customs Enforcement is using sensitive data about wire transfers between the U.S. and Mexico to track down immigrants for deportation.

The records were filed in a federal criminal case in Hawaii, as first reported by Honolulu Civil Beat earlier this week.

Gregorio Cordova Murrieta, who is originally from Mexico, was not indicted for money laundering, human trafficking, or any of the grave offenses that law enforcement officials typically offer to justify financial surveillance of wire transfers.

Instead, he was indicted in early July on a single count of reentering the country without authorization after having been previously deported to Mexico. This was the sole basis for the arrest warrant submitted by a special agent with ICE’s Homeland Security Investigations, which once marketed itself as hunting down war criminals and drug smugglers but under the current Trump administration has shifted resources toward tracking down undocumented people and critics of Israel’s war on Gaza.

In a filing to a federal magistrate judge on June 25, HSI Special Agent Tabitha Hanson explained how she found Cordova Murrieta using financial surveillance data."
