This NYT piece gets to the essence of things. “Behind that policy was a quieter goal: to ensure survivors did not end up in the judicial system, forcing them to show evidence justifying Trump’s military campaign.” Like a mob hitman insuring there are no witnesses. In fact, exactly like that.

#ICYMI: ProPublica obtained records from the Department of Agriculture that detailed the millions of pounds of food, down to the number of eggs, that never reached food banks because of the Trump administration’s cuts to an aid program.

How many farmers have lost their farms, businesses and lives because of crappy Trump policies and decisions?
In other words, Trump is planning to provide socialist welfare to people who voted for him after he ruined their businesses with his stupid tariffs.

But you can't have medicine, food, or ACA supplements.
President Trump is planning a $12 billion farm aid package, according to a White House official — a boost to farmers who have struggled to sell their crops while getting hit by rising costs after the president raised tariffs on China as part of a broader trade war. https://to.pbs.org/4ptNxEm

The Trumps and their billionaire friends stand to make millions if Paramount’s hostile takeover bid succeeds. Not only is this a conflict of interest, it's even more evidence of how the Trump family is using the presidency to get richer, while working families suffer.

Follow the money and insider info/influence and flat out duplicity.
Trump said he would “be involved” in decisions related to Netflix’s proposed deal to acquire Warner Bros Discovery.

Now we find out that Jared Kushner’s private equity firm is part of Paramount's bid to beat out Netflix and acquire Warner Bros Discovery for themselves.

It took dozens of special agents the best part of a decade to bring Juan Orlando Hernández to justice for flooding US cities with cocaine. Then, in a single social media post last week, Donald Trump set the former Honduran president free.

Instead of working to lower costs, Trump is boosting power-hungry AI data centers.

The U.S. Coast Guard—a branch that literally hunted Nazi submarines in WWII—has decided that swastikas are no longer "hate symbols," but merely "potentially divisive." This is disgraceful and unacceptable. Our grandfathers didn't fight fascism abroad so we could protect its symbols at home.
