The Trump administration has decimated the federal workforce and fired over 100,000 veterans. These cuts hurt Americans relying on essential government functions. We will make sure those responsible are held accountable.

It turns out the government is keeping public lists of those fiercely defending President Trump and his cabal of pedophiles.
They’re called sex offender registries.

the AI craze may actually do more damage via creating additional unaccountable centibillionaires than by all of the other disruption it’s causing, which is considerable
The pace at which US wealth concentration is rising is simply staggering
