the Danube Institute is a nasty thing - a far right body paid by Orban to promote Orban; allied with Project 2025 and supporting people like Eric Zemmour and the AfD. It’s baffling and troubling that the NRC wouldn’t think this matters when publishing their views
It’s kind of weird that NRC doesn’t explain that the Danube Institute, employer of Eric Hendriks, the author of this pro-China, anti-EU piece, is financed by the Hungarian government www.nrc.nl/nieuws/2026/...
Opinie | Het doek is gevallen voor Europa’s neokoloniale waanwereld van morele verhevenheid

I wonder how many Dutch voters fully realize that what ICE is doing in Minnesota is *exactly* what Wilders (and van der Plas, Baudet, Eerdmans etc) would like to see happen here. It’s a free preview of what far right government actually looks like.

The real reason the US is invading Venezuela goes back to a deal Henry Kissinger made with Saudi Arabia in 1974.

Great points in this thread: We don't usually think of 1965 immigration act as on par w/New Deal and Civil Rights, but it was a major liberal achievement and Miller's real project is to undo it. As @larryglickman.bsky.social says this connects w/goal of undoing other great 20th century achievements:
Finally had a chance to read this Incredible piece by @gregsargent.bsky.social that documents Miller’s attempt to undo and reverse the 1965 immigration settlement and reveals how central this effort is to the administration’s reactionary aim to take down the New Deal and civil rights orders.
