The way the Japanese PM actually visibly reacted - the ‘sit up and back while your soul sucks into itself’ - spoke volumes. It’s like an LLM was asked to output the most boorish thing he could say in the situation and he said it.

Despite there being real-time translation, she is considered to be fluent in English. A fact that Trump should have been briefed on, considering it is open source.

From her Wikipedia bio:

In 1987, Takaichi moved to the United States to work as a Matsushita Institute Congressional Fellow for Democratic congresswoman Patricia Schroeder, who had made a strong impression on Takaichi while campaigning for president. In 1989, upon her return to Japan, she worked as a legislative analyst with knowledge of American politics...
 
For someone as knowledgeable about WW2, he's remarkably quiet about the Vietnam Draft era.

Nice to see the Japanese PM did not take the bait.

But is it too late?

The desire for an immigration reset is being driven in part by Trump’s White House chief of staff, Susie Wiles, who believes the president’s immigration team has turned one of his marquee issues into more of a challenging issue ahead of the midterms, the people said. As a result, the administration is attempting to change not only how it talks about the issue—but also what actual enforcement looks like on the ground.

Isn't that the same person who described anyone who wasn't expressing sadness at the shooting of Charlie Kirk as basically lacking in humanity?

Between Mueller and Trump there really could not be two more diametrically opposite qualities of person in terms of honourable service to their country.

Haven't seen anything yet from presidents Bush jr. or Obama on this, but I suspect their PR people's statement to be much more positive and appropriate.

Canadian mother and daughter ‘traumatized’ by ICE detainment, husband says

Tania Warner and Ayla, her seven-year-old with autism, sent to notorious Texas detention center and told to ‘self-deport’
www.theguardian.com www.theguardian.com

A Canadian woman and her seven-year-old daughter with autism who have been held by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) for nearly a week have been transferred to a notorious detention center and asked to “self-deport”, according to her husband, who said the pair had been “traumatized” by the experience.

Tania Warner and her daughter Ayla Luca, originally from British Columbia, moved to the US five years ago, when Warner married Edward Warner, a US citizen.


The family lives in Kingsville, Texas, and were driving home from a baby shower in Raymondville on 14 March when they were stopped at a border patrol checkpoint in Sarita.

Since then, Warner said that he had been only been able to have short telephone calls to his wife that often last no longer than a few minutes.

“She says she’s traumatized … They’re not good,” he said, adding that his wife was forced to whisper during the calls so that officials could not overhear the conversation.

“She said the border patrol agents are just absolute pieces of shit,” said Warner, who added that Ayla had developed a rash during her time in detention.

Warner said that Tania had been told she could be released if she agreed to “self-deport” to Canada. “We don’t want that at all,” he said. “They are my family.”


Warner said his family has been detained unlawfully, as all Tania’s paperwork to live and work in the US is valid until 2030.

Tania’s cousin Amber Sinclair said: “She has a social security card. She has a functional visa. That’s good until 2030, so I don’t understand why they’re stopping her and detaining her.”

With my daughter going back and forth over the border, this stuff weighs heavily on me. Thankfully she has the presence of mind to keep her social media presence and opinions to a minimum.
