Bulwark: The \u2018Parasites\u2019 and the \u2018Good Immigrants\u2019<\/a><\/h2>\nMeet more of the worst people in the world.<\/p>\n
I\u2019ve been listening to Robert Evans\u2019 podcast series on Adolf Eichmann<\/a> and one of the things Evans mentions is that throughout the Holocaust, many Nazis had in their lives a \u201cGood Jew.\u201d Some Jewish person who they liked and wished to save.
\n…<\/p>\nOne of the hallmarks of Trump\u2019s mass deportation regime has been the emergence of Good Immigrants from certain MAGA communities. We saw these people in the small Missouri town which rallied to Carol<\/a>, a beloved member of their community who was arrested by Trump\u2019s secret police because her papers were not in order.<\/p>\nThese MAGA diehards whined and complained until the administration relented and let Carol go. It seems to have occurred to precisely none of the townfolk that America is full of Carols.

\nBut let\u2019s zoom out for a moment to keep in mind this truth: Our large and diverse country is inexorably becoming a white minority country and the goose-stepping march by a tyrannical minority to dismantle our liberal democracy is motivated by their belief that they cannot let America achieve its egalitarian promise. There may be no words that they fear more than \u201call men are created equal.\u201d Their war on America is not a sign that they are winning, but in fact a response to the reality that they are losing in their hunger to ram a white nationalist future down our throats.

Nothing quite says \u201cdiplomacy\u201d like telling the President of Liberia, \u201cWow, your English is so good,\u201d as if Liberia\u2019s official language isn\u2019t, well, English. Then, when the President of Sagal (whose name Trump didn\u2019t bother remembering) tried to pitch building a golf course in his country to attract U.S. investment, Trump perked up like a toddler offered an ice cream cone. \u201cNice, that\u2019s a long trip to show off my skills, but that\u2019s really nice,\u201d he cooed, proving once again that foreign policy under Trump boils down to whether someone flatters him or not.

Heather Cox Richardson: Letters from an American – July 10, 2025<\/a><\/h2>\n…
\nMeanwhile, FEMA\u2019s acting director, David Richardson, has been nowhere to be found, making no public appearances, statements, or postings on social media since the disaster, and not visiting the site. Former FEMA officials told Thomas Frank of Politico that Richardson\u2019s absence suggests Noem is controlling the FEMA response. Trump appointed Richardson after his team fired his first appointee, Cameron Hamilton, for telling Congress he did not think FEMA should be scrapped.<\/p>\n
The day after he took office in May, Richardson, who has no experience with emergency management, told staff: \u201cDon\u2019t get in my way\u2026because I will run right over you. I will achieve the president\u2019s intent\u2026. I, and I alone in FEMA, speak for FEMA,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Even as rescuers were still at work today in Texas, DHS cancelled a $3 million grant that had been awarded in New York to make sure the NWS can communicate effectively with local officials.<\/p>\n
Tariffs are back in the news as Trump\u2019s postponement for his high tariff has ended. They are as chaotic and as problematic as ever.
