はてなキーワード:The White Houseとは
今後アメリカと取引したければ多様性を尊重とか誰一人取り残さないとか包括とか差別禁止とかポリコレは
一切やめるということになります。
まあ常識的に考えて子供を産みもしないLGBTQになんで配慮する必要があるんだろう。全く意味がないしムダ。特別能力が優れているわけでもないし、日本では別に差別もない。そら変人扱いはされるだろうよ。
そして、大谷も日本人ではなくアメリカ人としてドジャースでplayすることが求められます。まあ今と変わらないけどね。ドジャースも公式にはっきり書けばいいのにね。長年の伝統なんて無視してトランプに会わないつもりだったんだろうが。

というだけでなく
先日DEI全消し関連でジャッキー・ロビンソンの功績が消された恨みもあってドジャースファンが結構反対している模様
現政権が称賛するには一番遠いような気もするが

あんまりこっちではニュースになっていないが(現にブクマカも沈黙している)、露につかまっていた米人教師が解放された。
特別機で帰国し、ホワイトハウスでトランプに面会、解放努力に感謝している。

さて、気になったのはマーク・フォーゲル氏が謎の白い缶を持っているところだ。CNNの動画サムネでも頭だけが見えている。
なんだこれ?トランプだからダイエットコークでもおごったのか?
ところが、ダイエットコークは現在銀のボディ(https://www.coca-cola.com/us/en/brands/diet-coke、デカフェは金色)でデザインが明らかに違う。
ソーダ以外でアメ公が缶で飲むのはビールだろう。そう思って探すと、ドンピシャにもこれは
Marc Fogel withPresidentTrumpatthe White House and holding an IronCity beer can.

であるという。
銘柄が分かれば素性は知れる、これはピッツバーグのビールだ。なるほどピッツバーグは鉄の都である(USスチール本社所在地。フットボールはスティーラーズだ)。https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_City_Brewing_Company
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marc_Fogel
を見ると
Fogelis from Pennsylvania,United States. Heattended the Indiana University of Pennsylvania.
大当たり。つまり露助につかまっていた男に懐かしき故郷の地酒をおごってやってる、という構図だ。
The beerisbrewed just across the AlleghenyRiver from Fogel’shome in Oakmont.

さらにちょっと思い出してほしい。ペンシルバニアだ。そう、あそこは前回の大統領選で激戦州。トランプは薄氷50.5%で勝利した(ハリス48.6%)。
トランプは出ないにせよ、次も天下分け目の激戦州になり得るところだ。釣った魚にきちんとエサを与えるのは訴求力を持つ。
そこ出身の男に、ちゃんと地酒をおごってやる、というのは極めていいストーリーだろう。
まあ、トランプがこんな些細なことを差配しているわけはあるまい。

I Traveled to 46States inAmerica ThisSummer.Here’sWhyTrump Won.
By Frank S. Zhou
By Ezekiel A. Wells
Ezekiel A. Wells ’27is aDouble Concentrator in Environment Science & Engineering and Economics in EliotHouse. He spentlastsummertraveling to 46Americanstates conductinginterviews forhisYouTube series, “CrossroadsAmerica.”
A week after Democrats’ election loss, accusations have flown in every direction within their Party. Some faultPresidentJoe Biden for an egoistic refusal todropout of therace earlier. Someblame the Harris campaign for failing to servekey demographics and communicate a clearvision for the country. And someblameAmericans, claiming that racism and sexism drove voters towardTrump.
These factors certainly exist, but we’remissing a largerpiece of the picture.
Over thesummer, I traveled to 46states in the U.S., creating aYouTube series highlighting slices oflife across the country. In conversations from my nearly three-monthroad trip, I spoke with Republicanswho were certain that inflationis entirely Biden’s fault and Democratswho, despite their frustrations with corporate profits and desires foruniversal healthcare, hoped for amore moderate candidate. From supporters ofall candidates, I heard a shockingamount of misinformation.
After combing through hundreds of hours ofinterview footage fromswingstateTrump voters, Iam certain that,as muchas other factors influenced theoutcome of the election, our crumbling media landscape — whichhas caused arift in our democracy —ismost toblame.
In the postwar period,newswas dominatedby threemain channels, and because ofthe FairnessDoctrine, eachstation reported the same stories and covered multiple sides of eachissue.Viewers picked which channels they watchedmainly basedon their preferences fornewsanchors’ personalities. Of course, thismodel hadits problems, but,at the end of the day,it meant thatAmericans worked with a sharedset of facts.
A sharedset of factsis notthe world welive intoday.
Throughout myinterviews, conspiracy theories were rampant, andonat leastfive separate occasions across separatestates, Iwas told that Bill Gates tampers with ourfood, adding plastic to our fruits and vegetables tomakehis medical investmentsmore profitable.
In conversations with voters, neither side seemed able tonamemany specific policyissues they cared about; everyone just seemed to repeat the words of theirfavorite pundits,podcast hosts, andinternet personalities.
Although this behavioris harmful, Idon’tblame everydayAmericans.Blame fallson the media thathas ostracized, disillusioned, and misinformed them.

I firstsaw this trend withlow-wage workers in West Virginia,who — despitefalling inflationrates — have seen stagnated salaries and clear increases infood costs. ChannelslikeFoxNews bred anger and resentment formany of them.
TakeJuly of thissummer, for example, when for the firsttime inhis presidency, prices actually fell under the Biden administration. Traditional media establishments rushed tocelebrate thisvictory, withone article fromCNN declaring, “The White House can finallycrossout ‘inflation’onits list ofpresidential liabilities.” However,outside these bubbles, I observedmanyAmericans held a differentview.
In lateJuly, Iwas welcomedat a massive familyreunion in Tylertown, Mississippi, whereoneTrump voter — a middle-aged, Black, familyman, pastor, andsoulfood enthusiast —made this clear.
“When Igo in the grocery stores, and Igotta spend mylast toget groceries,you mean totell me I’m notgonnalook and seewho’sgonna vote to help me? I voted forTrump and I’d vote forhimagain, because he put money in ourpocket,” he told me.
In their coverage,mainstreamnews organizations obsessover the Federal Reserve’snextrate cuts while failing toconnect with people concernedwith theirnext meals.With titleslike “Vance:YoungAmericans ‘Are Becoming Paupers’ Due To Inflation, High Housing Costs,” siteslike The DailyWire had their fingerson the pulse ofAmerican sentiment, welcoming new readership from thosewhofelt neglectedby traditional media.
This problemwas not just confined to the economy. While Biden’s mentalstatewas deteriorating,liberal mediaoutlets seemed to under-cover these stories, shelteringhim from scrutiny ofhis declining capabilities, until theinfamouspresidential debate.
Formerly trusted networksslowlymade themselves indigestible to the polarizedAmerican public, and in 2024, for the third year in a row, a Gallup pollfound thatmoreAmericans indicated having “no trust” in the media than thosewho trustit a “great deal/fairamount”.
So wheredoes the averageAmerican turn when thenation’s media cannot be trusted? Formany people,itwasYouTubetalk shows,Newsmax, andpodcasters suchasJoe Rogan.
While Democrats seek toblame various internal factors for this election’s loss, I cannot help but think ofJoe Rogan’sTrump endorsement, themany blind lies I heard from ordinary citizens across the country, and declining trust inAmerican journalism.
AsHarvard students and members of highereducation institutions, we have a part to play in the problem.AtHarvard’s Institute ofPolitics, thosewho denied the 2020 election results have been precluded from speakingat theJFKJr. Forum. While thegoalis understandable,it shields students from understanding theAmericanviewpoints they represent.

Thereis adifferencebetween platforming intentional andmanipulative misinformation and listening to and learning about where people are and what theybelieve.
As a pipeline tomainstream media,Harvard, andits future journalists, have to consider the audience they lose when theystay inside of their bubble and ignore theissues of everydayAmericans.
The disappearance of factual importance in our worldis alarming and dangerous, but if we,asaspiring journalists, politicians, andengaged citizens, want to betaken seriously in communicatingTrump’s threat to democracy, inflationary tariff policies, and soon, we oweAmerican voters that seriousness, too.

Areyouall ready tomake a ruckus?
Areyouall ready tofight for our rights?
Areyouall ready to say that inthe United States of America everyoneis loved, everyone deservesjustice, and everyone deservesequal protection and prosperity in our country.
Itis such an honor to behere, and Idon’tthink it’s a coincidence that we’re gatheringheretoday, the weekend beforeMartin Luther King Day.
BecauseI believe thismoment and where we are rightnowis a resurgence from where the civil rights movement left off.
And we arehere to carry the torch forward.
Because when wetalked about racial and economicjustice, racial and socialjustice, westarted to reallyextend thoseissues to theissues of economicjustice, environmentaljustice, and the intersectionality and interconnectedness ofall ourfights.
Justiceis not a concept we read about in abook.
Justiceis about the water we drink,justiceis about theair webreathe.
Justiceis about how easyitis to vote.
Justiceis about how much ladiesget paid.
Justiceis about if we canstay with our children after we have them for a just amount oftime – mothers, fathers,and all parents.
Justiceis about making sure thatbeing politeis not the same thingasbeing quiet.
Infact, oftentimesthe most righteous thingyoucan doisshakethe table.
Last year we tookthe power to the polls.
And this year, we’re takingpower to the policy, because we havetaken backthe House of Representatives.
This year we’re gonna organize.
This year we’re gonnafight for voting rights.
This year we’re gonna keep pushing, because 2020, we took – in 2018 we tookthe House of Representatives, and through 2020, we’re gonnatakethe White House and Senate, too.
That’s what we’re gonna do because weneed toadvance andfight for an America whereall people are welcome and no people are left behind.
AndI know that while this yearhas been historic, there’s a lotmore congresswomen lefthere in this audience rightnow.
There’s a lotmorecity councilwomen.
There’s a lotmore workers thatwill bebuilding businesses.
There’s a lotmore – andI know that there’s a futurepresidentouthere, too.
Let us remember that afight means no person left behind.
So when people want to stoptalking about theissues
that Black women face,
when people want to stoptalking about theissues
that trans women or immigrant women face,
we gottaask them,whydoes thatmakeyou so uncomfortable?
Becausenow, thisisthe time that we’re gonnaaddress poverty.
Thisisthe time we’re gonnaaddress Flint.
Thisisthe time we’re gonnatalk aboutBaltimore & theBronx, and wildfires, andPuerto Rico.
Because thisis not just about identity, thisis aboutjustice.
And thisis about the America that we are going tobring into this world.
