‘People tend to think there are more immigrants in their country than there really are.

In the US, for example, the average person believes that 33% of people were not born there. However, official estimates from government agencies show that the figure is just 15%...

In Japan, people guess that 10% of the population are immigrants, but the accurate figure is around 2%.’

Here is Professor Stefan Rahmstorf presentation to the Arctic Council earlier this month on whether the AMOC is Shutting Down? - Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation.

AMOC shutting down could have a catastrophic impact on Northern Europe including more extreme weather events, but also on sealevels along north American coast, and global impacts with changes in precipitation.

If Harris loses it will be 85% the fault of various corners of the media. This is not remotely a question.

So the world's richest man, who holds billions of dollars in government contracts, owns one of the largest social media platforms, and is spending a fortune to get Donald Trump elected, is reportedly having secret conversations with Putin...

Anyone else see the problem here?

Don’t like the rhetoric of Donald Trump been called “America’s Hitler”?

Too bad. Take it up with JD Vance.

Vote Harris/Walz to save America.

More than a dozen former Trump administration officials come out in support of former chief of staff John Kelly, who went on the record to say the former president fits the definition of a fascist, would govern like a dictator and has no concept of the Constitution. https://www.politico.com/news/2024/10/25/never-trump-former-officials-back-kelly-warning-00185435

This is an incredibly small pet peeve of mine.

I hate when people confuse MSX games for NES games.

But that just goes to show how incredibly underrated the MSX is amongst Westerners.

"As a historian of forced population movements and as an American, I don’t think we are taking the consequences of the Trump-Vance deportation plan seriously enough. The reality will be much more personal and awful, and the politics more transformative and durable, than we might think."

Corrupt candidate promises Saturday night massacre on first day of Presidency if elected.

Seriously, he’s telling you exactly what he’ll do. Don’t vote for this.

Amy Siskind:

#Trump says he would fire special counsel #JackSmith in "two seconds." He has also said he would pardon all the #Jan6 insurrectionist. So much at stake! Find it in yourself to volunteer to get out our vote. We are not going back! When we fight, we win!!!

Yet another allegation of sexual assault against Trump, this time from a woman who was a minor at the time.

Barely made a blip in the media. Amazing how this man can admit to sexually assaulting women for fun, and then when women say "yeah he did it to us," the response is she must be lying.🤔

But it's definitely not a cult.
