I'm on board if she brings a whiteboard and schools people after putting forth actual legislation based on real data. She'll be amazing in any political seat she is elected to.
It's a major goal of conservatives and Republicans to destroy free and open thinking. Education and educational institutions are enemies of fascism, so therefore fascists will work to destroy schools.
It's not a law as far as I know, just a tradition. The Mint and Congress have only ever put designs in place for people who have already passed away. This was strongly codified in the presidential dollar coin series. They required that for a president to have a coin, they had to have died some time before their coin was due. This meant that the series did not include presidents still living, even past ones.
You only put living people on coinage if they're monarchs was the original thinking. In fact, we barely put actual people on coins until 1932. Up until then it was depictions of Lady Liberty and animals more than anything else. We changed that with the George Washington quarter as a commemorative short run, but it just kind of kept going... and now we're trying to put a monarch on the currency. Oh, how the nation has fallen.
The cruelty is the point. Conservatives thrive on hurting others. I'm in no way surprised that the current oligarchy is okay killing people to line their pockets and the peasants who voted for them cheer it on.
I'm no expert in immigration nor work opportunities. I focused on universities that teach undergraduate programs in English (many do graduate levels in English) so they'd be more open to my application.
I made a very long list of universities with programs and research in my topic and found their jobs pages. I then would check them all every so often for positions. When there's was a good opening I dropped everything and applied.
If you only know English then it's more about what you bring to the economy where you're applying to. Will you find a job? Pay taxes? Pay your rent? Mostly, the question is whether you'll be a burden on the state or not.
Good places would be Ireland (English speaking), then it would have been Scotland and England. After that... Germany is interested in brining in workers to fill open roles if they will learn to fit in and pay taxes. After that it'll be tougher, but doable. Get a contract offer for a job and you'll be in much better shape. I did interviews at all hours, skipped work to travel for interviews, and networked. I wrote lots of cover letters on what I want and why.
It is possible to make the move. Your interest in where you apply and your skills you bring are the key factors (unless you're independently wealthy).
There's even some companies that help people find jobs and get through immigration. I talked with one called Bonus Relocation in Spain that worked all over Europe and they will help you from the earliest stages of seeking a job to renting an apartment after you move. Great people.
The downtown stations are so very nice. I love rolling right into the core and being a few minutes from everything.
Having to train in from the airport isn't bad, but after a long trip adding another hour to get from the airport to downtown is annoying. Of course, many US cities don't have a train from the airport to downtown, so that only applies in developed locations.
One of the upcoming wacky infrastructure choices is the high speed rail in Las Vegas to LA. On the Vegas end the train station is out of town like it's an airport. So you train from LA to Vegas and then... bus in? Join a massive line of taxis/ubers? It's so very clumsy. Why the casino operators didn't find a way for the rail station to be in the center of the strip so people fall of the train and into their casinos is still beyond my ken.
When they have a coalition government in Germany's parliament that is made of parties who use the red, yellow, and green colors, it seems to track that the next election ends up going Left, especially to the Die Linke party. Unfortunately, it's not drawing a lot of support out of the near-Nazi Musk-backed AfD party, but it's pulling from CDU, which is a center right party. Hopefully it'll help push the national Overton Window to a more leftist/progressive field in the next few elections.
I just accepted my offer to leave my university in the US for one in Europe. My mathematician of a wife is going to start working for one there too.
When I told my US colleagues they uniformly said how lucky I am and that they're thinking about going too. Our University faculty and staff are looking to leave and we have the ability to do so. Brain drain is real and the US is about to see it first hand.
He started doing this in his first term. What has changed since then? He's still Putin's stooge so leaving NATO is on the docket to help undermine Europe so Russia can invade.
I'd be quite pleased with President Camacho at this point. He was at least engaged and charismatic. He was interested in making things better and publicly worked towards good things.
