The presidency has become a giant corruption factory. US Treasury and every federal budget will be used for whatever Trump wants. Mostly to further his own wealth. Unf’n believable.
President Trump apparently thinks it's time to throw a lavish party for Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, who will host a U.S.-Saudi investment summit the next day
The Trump Organization is currently working on Trump Tower Jeddah and has plans for a property in Riyadh. trib.al/05mjSzq

Worst president in human history. An idiot driven by his insecurities, using lies and cruelty to hide incompetence. He doesn’t care who lives or dies. And the U.S. seems powerless to stop him.

Good news, you have power...massive power to stop #ICELawlessness & abuse.
All it takes is a call. 202-224-3121
Your voice matters no matter what party your lawmakers are from.
If your lawmaker is a Republican, they need to see you oppose this. If they're Democrats, encourage them to get louder.

The developed world implemented universal healthcare yrs ago. But the U.S. is all about profit and wealth. More money to be had if you slice and dice every aspect - insurance, advertising, hospital conglomerates, billing offices, collections, fees and more fees.
Not to mention govt closings.

Trump didn’t win a presidency. He won a palace, private jet, personal security team, endless bribes, control of a huge treasury, golf on demand, foreign properties, a get-out-of-jail-free card, gold trim, adoring subjects, constant media attention. It was never about country.

Trump, less than a month ago:
“We got everything done,” he added, “I said, ‘Put it all into one bill and if we get it done, we’re done for four years.’ We don’t need anything more from Congress.”

Why does ICE have a budget equal to the U.S. military. Over $900 Billion? What the hell does ICE need with that much money?
Eisenhower warned re the military-industrial complex - misplaced power, excessive spending, and a threat to democratic processes. He would have included ICE.
