The "benign neglect" of many centrist-to-liberal people in the #USA towards what is going on outside of it's borders is glaringly evident in this query and it's replies.
🚫 the lack of vision (what could be done in a functional political milieu) to set up functional and humane #immigration practices in the tweets aren't surprising yet disappointing.
The #USA needs a guest worker program. People come to #work, save #money to live off when they quit in their nation of origin. Laws need to let foreign nationals come-and-go without means testing

What happened in DC is a travesty. If you don’t know, a group of Proud Boys mixed in with some other conservatives marched and towards the end went to fight with counterprotestors in BLM plaza.
There’s been a fair bit of misreporting but what is clear now is that Proud Boys stabbed multiple counterprotestors unprovoked. This probably brings unpleasant flashbacks to 2015 for a bunch of Sacramentans... 😕 (they marched in #Sacramento too)
.@GayleKing found this video heartwarming. Perhaps it is. I for one, see it as a possibility that there have been white racist provocateurs in the #GeorgeFloydProtests
