«The #StateDepartment released its long-awaited reports on #InternationalHumanRights Tuesday, & they drastically reduce the types of #GovernmentRepression and abuse that the United States under President #Trump deems worthy of criticism

The agency said the "streamlined" #HumanRights reports adhere more closely 2 what's required to be in them by law. But critics say the reduced content lets #authoritarians off the hook»

Here's the official #StateDepartment notice about requiring #visa applicants (and soon holders) to the United States saying you MUST turn all your social media accounts to PUBLIC.

This is absolute madness. Do not comply. Do Not Come to the United States. The government will attack you. We have gulags. Literally, concentration camps where the living conditions are beyond horrific.

Please, there are thousands of fantastic universities everywhere else. Canada, Europe, Asia...anywhere but here. Please, for your own safety, and the safety of everyone you have ever talked to online, DO NOT COMPLY.

While #Trump tries to completely dismiss #JeffreyEpstein’s child sex ring scandal as a Democratic “scam,” his administration has quietly axed key office related to investigating #humantrafficking. #WhiteHouse hacked 1,353 positions from #StateDepartment gutting parts of the agency that don’t align with #MAGA values,.Those include offices focused on promoting #democracy, ending #genocide, quelling political #extremism, and combating #humantrafficking. newrepublic.com/post/198080/st

The New Republic · State Department Chooses Wild Time to Cut Human Trafficking OfficeThe move comes as Donald Trump is fending off outcry over convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Rep. Joaquin Castro: "Trump is firing 1,300 of our dedicated diplomats at the #StateDepartment. These are committed public servants who represent the United States and advance our nation’s values. Many have received years of training, learned many languages, and have dedicated their lives to public service. This is a reckless and shortsighted move that will diminish and hurt our standing on the world stage."

Friend who is in IT at #DoS says five people on his team received #RIF notices. By 5pm yesterday, all of their email was bouncing. It is rough. The loss of talent is heartbreaking. I am not sure how long it will take us to recover as a nation. This will not increase the country’s security or standing in the world. #DeptOfState #StateDepartment
