Just got word that Secretary Noem is asking for an addition to her budget - a new private Gulfstream 5 jet for her personal national photo op tour. She's already got a private plane but wants a tricked out new one.
All while she supports kicking 13 million people off Medicaid.

One of the first things Hannah Arendt talks about in the Origins of Totalitarianism is how what happened to the Jews during the holocaust could have been any minority & that any system that leans towards totalitarianism needs a minority group to subjugate. It could be you, it could be your neighbor

We just got an email from the exchange program. If Trumps executive orders cutting funding goes through it will end all exchange student programs. They are sponsored by the State department to promote cross-cultural understanding. It will be a big loss for our students.
