Trump defends controversial immigrant remarks at Iowa rally

Former President Donald Trump is defending his comments about migrants crossing the southern border, who he had said are poisoning the blood of America. He said at a campaign rally in Waterloo, Iowa, on Tuesday that he had not read “Mein Kampf,” referencing Adolf Hitler's fascist manifesto. He reiterated his “blood” purity comments from over the weekend and said immigrants in the U.S. illegally are “destroying the blood of our country.” Trump has faced mounting criticism for his intensifying rhetoric as he seeks to make immigration policy a key piece of his second-term agenda. Experts have noted his language echoes writings from Hitler about the “purity” of Aryan blood, which underpinned Nazi Germany's systematic murder of millions of Jews.

While reading “The Ministry for the Future” by Kim Stanley Robinson, I find myself wondering if this book should be required reading at #COP28

The story is fiction, of course. But it’s also highly informed & quite believable (so far). And it’s set in the not too distant future. #books #ClimateChange

Polls this far out aren’t indicative of how things will actually go come election time. But they can change public perception, fundraising, and strategy, so it’s important that where there are counterexamples to the prevailing narrative, we amplify them. The media surely won’t.

Kyiv investigates allegations Russian forces shot surrendering Ukrainian soldiers

Ukrainian officials have launched an investigation into allegations that Russian forces killed surrendering Ukrainian soldiers, after grainy footage on social media appeared to show two uniformed men being shot at close range. If confirmed, the shooting would be a war crime. It was not immediately possible to verify the video, which shows two servicemen walking out of a dugout at gunpoint and lying down on the ground before a group of Russian troops appears to open fire. Ukrainian authorities have launched a criminal investigation. Kyiv, its Western allies and international NGOs have repeatedly accused Moscow of breaching international humanitarian law since its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. The Kremlin denies these allegations.
