Arizona, the model for voucher programs across the country, spent so much money paying private schoolers’ tuition that it faced hundreds of millions in budget cuts to critical state programs and projects last year.

School Vouchers Were Supposed to Save Taxpayer Money. Instead They Blew a Massive Hole in Arizona’s Budget.

I will continue to blame every Trump voter that whines, "this is not what I voted for." This is EXACTLY what you voted for. We are all paying the price for your choices.
"'Any resources taken away from this just puts us more behind,' says a former FBI agent who, after years of working national security cases, recently left the bureau to avoid being reassigned to immigration enforcement. 'We don’t have the luxury of time.'"
The FBI Spent a Generation Relearning How to Catch Spies. Then Came Kash Patel.
As China’s spies grow more aggressive, the FBI is distracted and off-balance.

“We were forced out,” said an Agriculture Department employee who accepted the DRP offer in April. “There was no volunteering.”

California may not be able to enforce fuel standards due to Trump, but they can sure tax the hell out of new vehicles which do not meet a higher standard. They already tax on weight. They should be able to tax on fuel economy. If they do not meet the Biden standard by 2031, add $10,000 to the tax.
Trump says he will repeal Biden-era fuel efficiency standards for cars and trucks
Move marks president’s latest effort to dismantle pollution regulations and support for cleaner-running vehicles

I lived through this as the beginning of the year and watched friends get beaten up in federal service for the remainder. We will have 3 years of chaos under this administration. The decay will continue. Recovery will be the greatest challenge to the United States in modern history.

I swear, Navy admirals are the dumbest creatures on Earth. Zumwalt, LCS, and now the Constellation frigate. 30 years of aging ships and nothing new to replace them. Instead of wasting money on one broken idea after another, they could have built 40 additional Arleigh Burke destroyers.

The other message men should recognize from the voting on Tuesday is American women are REALLY pissed off.

Why retired generals are staying silent about Trump: They're scared.
Under military law, generals who speak out could be prosecuted for "contemptuous" statements about the president. "I have worried about retribution," says one.

This is a lie. "If" AI replaces workers or makes them more efficient, does anyone really expect companies to pay people the same to have more time off? No. They will fire people and keep the profit. The objective of a company is to maximize profit, not improve the quality of life for workers.
Elon Musk claims AI will soon 'replace all jobs' with work becoming 'optional' worldwide: 'It's game over, folks'
Tesla's CEO, Elon Musk, made an alarming claim about robots and AI replacing our jobs — but not everyone agrees with him.
