The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

It's statistical. It's stochastic.

Or, it's an excuse to turn the xenophobia up to 11, as I predicted.

Trump says he will ‘permanently pause’ migration from ‘third world countries’ after national guard shooting

In a social media post beginning with “a very happy Thanksgiving,” sent after 11pm on Thursday, the US president said his administration would “end all federal benefits and subsidies to noncitizens” and remove “anyone who is not a net asset to the United States”.

The president’s late-night post appeared to mark an escalation in the anti-migrant policies of his second term, which has been dominated by a campaign of mass deportations.

The extended screed posted to the president’s Truth Social account did not identify the countries he intended to target or explain what he meant by “third-world”, but instead used blistering anti-immigrant rhetoric to blame issues like high crime and America’s rising deficit on the presence of migrants and refugees, without evidence.


currently.att.yahoo.com - Trump says permanently pause migration

This appears to be the X post. It appears he is targeting nearly all 53M foreign born people in the country, and calls for revoking the naturalization of immigrants who have become citizens.

Do you have your papers in order, or depending on white skin to protect you?
