Want to find some waste in public spending? You don’t have to look further than the rebranding of the Department of Defense to the Department of War. Billions of dollars will be spent on such things as changing letter heads, napkins, jackets, names on buildings etc. Such great use of money… 🙄

Watching The Dark Money Game on Max and connecting the dots to all the other reading I’ve done on American history and the evolution of the Christian right wing in the US. It is blatantly obvious to me that the US has been run by religious extremists and oligarchs for a long time.
