(satire) *William Barr Celebrates Holidays By Giving Lethal Injections To Those Less Fortunate.*

Opposing Mary Nichols as head of the EPA, because in California she was too ready to let businesses continue polluting the air where poor people live.

Gina Raimondo did a lousy job of dealing with Covid-19 as governor of Rhode Island: she cut spending instead of helping people get well or not get sick. She should not be put in charge of the Department of Health and Human Services.

A little-known government department finally provided some useful data about the children that the US separated from parents that can't be found.

Searching for those refugee children's parents is a good thing to do, but when the ACLU does this, it is mission creep. It should leave the job of aiding refugee children to charities whose mission is to aid children or aid refugees, and focus on its own mission: defending human rights in the US. If the ACLU ceases to focus on its mission, its mission will suffer, and that must not be!

Bangladesh is taking Rohingya refugees to a low-lying island where they will drown sooner or later.

This is indeed inhumane, but calling it "short-sighted" presumes that Bangladesh's government of the fate it is condemning them to. That is impossible — flooding from storms and sea-level rise is a big concern in Bangladesh, and hardly anyone can be unaware of it.
