Fucking ghouls.
Quite the flex when you're holding disaster money hostage to gain political advantages. No irony in that the biggest recipients of blue state tax dollars are demanding these concessions.

NEWSMAX: Why should other states be bailing out California for choosing the wrong people to run their state?

Just a preview of the destructive bullshit we'll be privy to for the next four years. Lots of Project 2025 momentum, as if Trump's antics weren't bad enough. I am so g-damned ashamed of this country.

Find and support businesses that are actually doing the right thing. Money talks—spend it where it matters.

NEW: 58% Millennials and Gen Z say they don't have enough saved to retire and half of Americans have NO savings at all.
What happened? A banking consultant you've never heard of named Ted Benna killed American retirement.
Along with Ronald Reagan, of course.

I've been thinking of ways to cope with the coming darkness (Trump) and how to honor the light (Carter). I signed up for a food bank shift on 1/9 and reached out to my main volunteer commitment to ask if I can volunteer teach for them this year. What are you all doing to cope?
