In a few hours, @BensmanTodd will be at the Suchiate River checking to see if scouts or some of the migrants from the caravan are crossing.
@BensmanTodd Lead elements of the caravan have arrived at the Mexican border. Todd Bensman reports there are an estimated 300 migrants on the Guatemalan side of the border.
@BensmanTodd This portion of the caravan is comprised of mostly men. They seem unaware they will likely have problems entering Mexico and proceeding to the US border.

Here's one of the main reason why US food standards are so much worse than EU ones. In a nutshell, in the EU manufacturers must err on the side of caution if there's any doubts about the safety of something. In the US, the burden of proof is much higher.

Here's more background about some of the differences...

And here are 13 examples (from thousands) of the difference between US and EU food production standards. (Remember, so long as we're still EU members, our own food standards are protected by the EU's draconian ones, some of the strongest in the world.)

It is bone chilling to re-read this @davidfrum from the beginning of 2017. Just read it. So much of it has happened or seems vastly more plausible than it did back then.

The water is simmering. We are the frog. Nov 6 we either jump out of the pot or... theatlantic.com/magazine/archi…
I'm going to quote a few lines from it that today read like history, not prediction: "Big tax cuts, big spending, and big deficits have worked their familiar expansive magic."

Today, @RockyMtnInst released a new study on the economics of "clean energy portfolios" versus new gas plants. We find that gas loses, and it's a $350 billion and 10 GT CO2 prize for customers, investors, and the planet. Read on for more: 1/ rmi.org/insights/repor…
First, the situation: about half of the thermal capacity on the US grid is likely to retire by 2030. That represents a ~480 GW investment need for new capacity to replace it - and the default choice is new gas-fired capacity, which would cost ~$500B through 2030. 2/
Actually running those new CCGTs and CTs would cost another $400-500B, and emit 16 GT of CO2 through plant lifetimes. 3/
