The EU

Google says the EU requires a notice of cookie use (by Google) and says they have posted a notice. I don't see it. If cookies bother you, go elsewhere. If the EU bothers you, emigrate. If you live outside the EU, don't go there.

The Golden State


For John, BLUFWhen illegl immigrants are leaving and returning home you should recognize that you have a problem.  Nothing to see here; just move along.




Here is the sub-headline:

Years of anti-immigrant policies from the Trump administration have been magnified by insecurities resulting from the pandemic

From The Guardian, by Reporter Maanvi Singh, 31 December, 2020.

Here is the lede plus three:

California’s most vulnerable immigrants have faced unprecedented challenges this year, with some weighing whether it’s worth staying in the United States altogether.

Ten months of a pandemic that has disproportionately sickened immigrants and devastated some of the industries that rely on immigrant labor, combined with years of anti-immigrant policies by the Trump administration have exacerbated insecurities for undocumented people and immigrants working low-wage jobs across California.

For immigrants at the bottom of the economic ladder, it’s never been easy in the US, said Luz Gallegos, the executive director of the immigrant advocacy group Training Occupational Development Educating Communities Legal Center (Todec).

“But California was also always a place where my family – my parents and grandparents – believed they could build a better life,” said Gallegos who was born into a family of immigrant activists and organizers. “It was always a place with potential.”

However, notwithstanding the Trumpian spin, the Blogger, Professor Glenn Reynolds, says of this Grauniad article:
HOW BAD A JOB HAS GAVIN NEWSOM DONE?  EVEN THE MEXICANS ARE LEAVING IN DISGUST.
I tend to agree with the Blogger.  Since President Trump has dealt with COVID-19 in a Federal way, these problems fall on the Governor and not the President.  It is easy to blame President Trump, but it is really on responsible state and local officials, empowered by the Tenth Amendment, shirking their duties.
