The US no longer has a refugee program. There are many nouns to accurately describe a whites-only visa, but ‘refugee program’ is not one of them. Congress created and sustained our refugee program with bipartisan support over generations. Now Congress allows one person to simply terminate it.

As of June, all but three of the 7,730 refugees admitted into the U.S. in fiscal 2026 were from South Africa, according to newly released State Department data. www.notus.org/immigration/...

NEW PUBLICATION!🚨 The 2023 Swiss federal elections were the first ever held under mandatory campaign finance disclosure rules. So how does an open-list PR influence campaign spending? Greater voters' ability to cast preference votes = more money spent onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

This is really great, with many quotable portions, but I will just highlight "making the rejection of democracy sound like futurism" is such an elegant way to describe the what's going on.

Another day of far-right violence and pogroms in the UK. A country that still labels these thugs “protesters”, that claims “this isn’t Britain”, that fails to take responsibility for empowering and enabling these thugs, where the media is too afraid to call the forces behind this “far right”

Wir haben ein Dossier zur resilienten liberalen Demokratie erarbeitet. Es beruht auf 80 Quellen, die @wegschaider.bsky.social für die Lehrveranstaltung „Democratic Resilience – How Democracies Survive“ zusammengestellt hat, die im WS 2025/26 an der Uni Wien stattfand. www.chancedemokratie.net

Nur zur Erinnerung: An Universitäten arbeiten schon jetzt rund 80 Prozent der Beschäftigten befristet und prekär. Den Mittelbau aka "Nachwuchs" werden diese Kürzungen am härtesten treffen. Aber im Hochschulbereich gilt offenbar: Schlimmer geht immer. @nuwiss.bsky.social #IchBinHanna
