For many travelers, Antarctica is a bucket-list destination, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to touch all seven continents. In 2023, a record-breaking 100,000 tourists made the trip. But the journey begs a fundamental question: What do we risk by traveling to a place that is supposed to be uninhabited by humans? And as the climate warms, should we really be going to Antarctica in the first place?

Our immigration system is broken. Been broken for a long time. Trump & the GOP demagogue the issue (I used to as well), and Democrats have ignored the issue. Trump is promising to deport 15 million or so people who are in this country illegally. He won't. He just wanted to be able to say that in the campaign. But...we should be prepared for him to try.

Last night, Trump said that the U.S. should take over and “own” Gaza. Why? Because Trump believes it will enrich himself personally and because Trump is an autocrat, and like all good autocrats, Trump believes he has a right to anything. Freedom, sovereignty, and democracy can’t get in his way. But please don’t laugh at Trump. Take him seriously. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.…
