The Park Service MAKES money. Slashing their budget makes our experience worse when we visit.
Trump’s new budget proposal would slash funding for national parks, monuments, historic sites, seashores, and trails by nearly 25%, cutting more than $1.2 billion from the $4.8 billion Park Service budget.

American patriots support, & defend the U.S. Constitution.

So… the President of the United States is not sure he supports the U.S. Constitution (despite twice having sworn to protect & defend it)…

Trump is already facing pushback from Congress on his budget proposal and now he’s planning to override them entirely.

His new budget would slash nearly every federal program by a total of $163 billion while leaving defense spending untouched.

If you’re wondering what Elon Musk has been up to it’s not about saving Americans money. It’s about saving himself money. Musk has used his position leading DOGE to illegally evade oversight, derail investigations, and make litigation disappear whenever he chooses, on his terms and at his command.

NEW: Two years after MA passed its "millionaires tax," some claim that it's pushed rich taxpayers to leave.

Instead, IPS @inequality.org scholar @ocampomar.bsky.social found that now, the state has MORE millionaires — and much more funding for public goods.

Michael P. Norton in @bostonglobe.com:
Amid debate over Mass. ‘millionaires tax,’ report finds the number of millionaires here has surged - The Boston Globe
Nearly 2,000 households in Massachusetts have at least $50 million in wealth, study says, up 35 percent in two years.

Pay to Play, in plain view.
Trump has set up a new club where CEOs, tech bros, and foreign oligarchs can pay $500,000 to join in order to get access to the Trump Cabinet who will all be there regularly.

Just because the grift is all public doesn’t mean this isn’t the most corrupt White House in history.
