  9. So remittances are now being taxed by the federal government and I cannot send money to my ill father in Costa Rica without simultaneously diverting money to the Trump administration's programs kidnapping innocents in the US and dictators abroad. #remittances #taxes #StopFascism

    This #techbros is talking about #India and #growth while entirely ignoring that #US has gutted the prospects in 3 ways: #tariffs and #trade ; #immigraiton and #remittances ; and #aid

    On top of accelerating #climatechange which is routinely obliterating entire crops (e.g. #Punjab) or causing insane #heatwave getting worse each year.

  13. 2/ No help coming from anywhere - #migration not allowed (which could also yield #remittances) - tariffs cutting down possibilities of #exports. What should they do? Remember - this is one of many countries reeling from #climatechange

    #Srilanka #gdp is ~$100B

    These initial estimates for rebuilding are about 6-7% - almost definitely a huge underestimate. Think about it - one #cyclone causing ~10% of GDP's worth of #damage.

    While not supporting #billionaire assholes is the right goal, remember that the vast majority of #poverty alleviation that happened #globally was because of #trade that unfortunately flows through these #corporations.

    Not buying means those #poor folks in faraway places will end up starving. Already #aid has been cut off. #Immigration and #remittances are also down.

    We need to find better solutions. #Taxation and #public #benefits is the way to go.

  18. Fresh NRI deposits into India slumped 40% in the first half of FY26, with FCNR(B) inflows down 87%. Analysts cite shrinking interest-rate differentials, rising stock market investments and slower income growth abroad as key factors. english.mathrubhumi.com/news/n #NRIDeposits #IndianEconomy #RBI #GlobalFinance #Remittances

    The #US -
    1. Largest historical contributor to #climatechange
    2. Continues to promote #fossilfuels
    3. Stopped #aid to #poor countries
    4. Stopped #migration from poor countries - reduced #remittances
    5. Tariffed poor countries - reduced foreign revenues
    6. Now denying climate change

    When do #humanrights experts label this as what it is - #genocide - at a global scale?

  21. "Court records confirm what civil liberties advocates long warned would happen: Immigration and Customs Enforcement is using sensitive data about wire transfers between the U.S. and Mexico to track down immigrants for deportation.

    The records were filed in a federal criminal case in Hawaii, as first reported by Honolulu Civil Beat earlier this week.

    Gregorio Cordova Murrieta, who is originally from Mexico, was not indicted for money laundering, human trafficking, or any of the grave offenses that law enforcement officials typically offer to justify financial surveillance of wire transfers.

    Instead, he was indicted in early July on a single count of reentering the country without authorization after having been previously deported to Mexico. This was the sole basis for the arrest warrant submitted by a special agent with ICE’s Homeland Security Investigations, which once marketed itself as hunting down war criminals and drug smugglers but under the current Trump administration has shifted resources toward tracking down undocumented people and critics of Israel’s war on Gaza.

    In a filing to a federal magistrate judge on June 25, HSI Special Agent Tabitha Hanson explained how she found Cordova Murrieta using financial surveillance data."
