See, that’s what the app is perfect for.

[Elliott] Abrams was the key man in Reagan administration policy toward Central America, when that administration was abetting what a court recently ruled was a genocide in Guatemala, when the U.S. was backing the army of El Salvador in a series of death squad assassinations and massacres, and when the U.S. was invading Nicaragua with a Contra force that went after what one U.S. general described as ‘soft targets,’ meaning civilians, things like cooperatives.

Abrams later came back during the George W. Bush administration, joined the National Security Council and was a key man in implementing the U.S. policy of backing Israeli attacks against Gaza, when the U.S. refused to accept the results of the Gaza elections, where Hamas defeated Fatah in a vote, and instead Abrams and company backed a war operation to overturn the results of the election, backing the forces of Mohammed Dahlan.

Some commentators have said, 'Well, Abrams is not a Trump guy. He represents traditional, established U.S. foreign policy.’ And that’s true. The problem is that that U.S. policy has been to abet genocide when the U.S. feels it’s necessary.

The more we have a ideological debate about whether or not it’s moral or ethical to recognize the existence of trans people, the more we’re going to embolden the Trump administration and other state-level government actors to act to take away our rights. This isn’t a debate. It doesn’t violate anyone else’s rights for trans people to have rights.

It’s a pretty shocking admission, frankly, from the agency that’s supposed to protect public health and safety, the EPA, that they are putting 1,600 lives a year in danger to benefit coal executives who are running power plants that can no longer compete against renewable energy.

This was the initial intention of the administration. To [cause] a ruckus, separate these people, and then when it came down to it, when the images became too horrific, to say, ‘Well, OK, well, we can keep them together. We’re just going to keep them together in jail.’

Trump is trying to say this isn’t their policy, the Democrats made us do it. One of his advisers, Stephen Miller, is actually saying, ‘It is our policy to do it.’ His head of Department of Homeland Security, Kirstjen Nielsen, is saying, 'We’re not actually doing it.’ And then Attorney General Jeff Sessions is saying, 'God wants us to do it.’ So, that’s where we are in terms of the responsibility here.

The Obama administration said, ‘We won’t torture anyone. We will stop torture.’ But he ensured that anybody who was involved in the torture wouldn’t be prosecuted, and that’s why now today you have a president who feels that it is fine to endorse war crimes because he knows there is no precedent for prosecution for saying this. So whichever administration, I think torture is as American as apple pie.

We’ve talked about how poorly Trump’s people have separated his business interests from the interests of the country. The same is even more true for Jared Kushner, whose family business is basically bankrupt. And over and over again, he’s been shown to be in negotiations with entities, including Russians, but also Chinese and Middle Eastern. So, you know, he’ll go in and say, ‘OK, we’ll talk about this grand peace plan,’ which is not about peace at all, 'but, oh, by the way, can you bail out our 666 Park Avenue building, which is badly underwater?’ And I think Mueller could make the same argument he’s made with the IRA indictment and the Manafort indictment, and say that Jared Kushner is pretending to be serving America’s foreign policy interests, but in fact he is just doing his own bidding. He’s just trying to bail out his own company. So I wouldn’t be surprised if [Kushner is] moving towards a very similar indictment on conspiracy to defraud the United States, having to do with his conflicts of interest.

A budget is supposed to be a statement of moral principles. This is a statement of a immoral principles, because it literally is saying to people that if you’re poor, you’re worthless; if you’re elderly, you’re worthless; if you can’t afford housing because minimum wage has not actually kept up with inflation over the years, and so you may be working two or three jobs, minimum-wage jobs, but you still can’t put food on the table or a roof over your head, then somehow you don’t get to have the assistance of the government to climb out of it. So, it’s a cruel budget.
