I had to listen twice and then read the transcript to comprehend fully the embarrassment of rich detail you and Dr.Goodman proffered, Skipper. As always, thank you. Underlying the not-so-fine tuning of whack-a-mole American immigration laws are variations of NO TRESPASSING!

Loath as I am to quote or paraphrase liars and imbeciles, I'm compelled to reiterate the 1 and only promise kept by the current president. At a gala fund raiser for his campaign in June 2019 at Manhattan's Carlyle Hotel, Joe Biden reassured potential donors (oligarchs united): "Under a Biden administration, fundamentally nothing will change." Amen, brother! Talk about speaking truth to the powerful...and you can literally take that to the bank.

His predecessor racially profiled sovereign nations as "shithole countries". My question is why on Earth would anyone want to emigrate to the United Shitholes of America?

Well, I suppose it depends if the US (or another empire) has wrecked your country enough to want to leave! Then I can understand. And to your point, I almost wrote in the post, "the more things change, the more our interviews reveal why they stay the same!"

Thanks, Musselino

We could do so much good by not doing! No wars and closing bases alone would enhance security and safety worldwide, save money, address climate change. Even reduce violence, suicides, and substance abuse at home? Help eliminate that obsession with enemies! Redirect funds to public services some of the rest of the world enjoys (like China, Russia)? We do seem to have become that grossity DJT accused other countries of.
