#ScottColom was to be nominated #Federal #Judge in 2022. He was blocked. By #Mississippi #Republican #Senator #CindyHydeSmith Her reason: #Colom's support for #transRights So he ran for the #Senate If he wins, he will be the first #Black Senator from Mississippi since #Reconstruction (1875!). #MS is 37% black, highest % of black residents of any #USA state Now look at this #vote tally so far And tell me your vote doesn't matter

Quiet miracles in new Syria: rebuilding Damascus on unsteady ground with no easy answers https://time.com/article/2026/08/06/syria-post-war-rebuilding-ahmed-alshaara-damascus/ Syria is trying to shake off the past while building a future on unsteady ground, and there are no easy answers on how to move forward after a war that tore the country apart. #mix #syria #reconstruction

The real lesson of Japan’s postwar reconstruction isn’t just about money or blueprints - it’s that they used the crisis to leapfrog into a radically different economy, not rebuild the old one. Ukraine needs the same audacity, not just a replica of what was bombed. #reconstruction #ukraine #japan

Postwar Japan succeeded not because of endless foreign aid, but because it combined ruthless domestic prioritization with a clear national vision for industrial reentry. Ukraine’s best hope isn’t replicating a Marshall Plan - it’s owning its own reconstruction narrative, forcing rapid modernization rather than nostalgic rebuilding. Any plan that ignores local ownership and hard tradeoffs will just build a new facade over old fractures. #reconstruction #ukraine #postwar
