Die #USA werden mit ihren #GOP-Wahnsinnigen zum #Taliban-Staat der westlichen Hemisphäre.

- Frauenrechte wurden beschnitten
- Kleidervorschriften („Warum tragen Sie keinen Anzug?“)
- Haare müssen dem Geschlecht angepasst frisiert sein (Arkansas)
- die Leute brauchen keine Bildung (Kürzung von Geldern)

Bald kommen sicher noch:
- Frauen dürfen nur noch Röcke tragen
- Haare müssen verschleiert sein
- Frau ist Eigentum des Mannes
- …weitere Vorschläge?

Text from article: Before the war began, Russia was already targeting Americans. Russia’s military intelligence service, the GRU, paid the Taliban and other militia bounties to attack American soldiers in Afghanistan, with an offer of Russian documents and asylum in return. The GRU is also the likely culprit behind “Havana syndrome” or “anomalous health incidents,” attacks from a directed-energy weapon that have left hundreds of American diplomats and intelligence officers and their families—including children—with traumatic brain injury and other cognitive ailments. Had such attacks been carried out by al Qaeda, ISIS, or Hezbollah, the response would have been swift and severe. It's hard to understand why President Trump is ready to make deals with Vladimir Putin, when it is clear Putin has given his blessing for these and other operations that have led to American deaths.

Awful — "The BBC has seen emails sent to the 82 students informing them that their scholarships have been 'discontinued' due to the termination of... USAID funding."

Afghan women who fled the country and were pursuing higher ed degrees in Oman are to be sent back to Afghanistan within two weeks. What retribution they will face for defying the Taliban?

And guess what? trump admin blames Biden!😡

The new ban could affect tens of thousands of #Afghans who have been cleared for resettlement in the US as #refugees or on Special Immigrant Visas because they are at risk of #Taliban retribution for working for the #US during the war.

…The #State Dept office that oversees resettlement is seeking an exemption for Special Immigrant Visa holders from the #TravelBan.…

That office, the Coordinator for Afghan Relocation Efforts, has been told to develop a plan by April for its closure.

#BBC report on the #CCTV #surveillance networks of the #Taliban in #Kabul #Afghanistan

I am very sceptical they have 90 000 cameras in a public funded CCTV scheme for just one capital - even UK cities don't have as many as that - and where are they getting the bandwidth from, they would need more advanced broadband and LTE than many Western nations!)

(I think the real number of cameras is likely a few thousand)

#Trump says he would have kept the #Bagram base rather than give it back to #Afghanistan, but the agreement that Trump sealed did not call for keeping Bagram. In fact, the Trump-#Taliban deal committed the #UnitedStates & its allies to “withdraw all their forces from remaining bases.”

#Defense Sec #PeteHegseth, said he was auditing the #Defense Dept’s #military leadership involved in the withdrawal. Trump then said he thought those leaders would “largely” be out.

Vance is coming for our rights along with everything else.

theguardian.com/world/2025/feb

Vance claimed the Scottish government had distributed letters to citizens whose houses lay “within so-called safe access zones, warning them that even private prayer within their own homes may amount to breaking the law”. As pointed out, this is a lie. But the morn will carry on repeating it.

The betrayals just keep coming. Working with the #US is asking to be left out in the cold; why would anybody ever do it in the future?

President Tiny-Hands and his band of reich-wing psychos are destroying everything that's good about this country at a breakneck pace. #China and #Russia are really getting their money's worth.

I'd like to take this opportunity to recognize once again my fellow #liberals and #progressives who sat out the #election in #November because, in their ignorance, they didn't like President's Biden support of #Israel.

It's been one day—ONE DAY—and we've already seen the Bronzed Bastard pardoning the violent #seditionists of #Jan6; blocking the arrival of already-approved #refugees from #Afghanistan, including those who directly helped the US in our efforts and are at tremendous risk under the #Taliban; attempting to kill the right of #citizenship guaranteed by the #Constitution; and nominating #Christofascists for key #cabinet positions.

Every liberal who stayed home on Nov 5th is just as much an accessory to these horrors as any ignorant, red-hatted, pickup-truck driving white Republican voter. Congratulations: you've made America meaner, and weaker.
