Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for, we are the change that we seek. Barack Obama. Just posting what I'm reading and observing.
"Viktor" is a dictator

As a direct result of the obscene actions of Russell Vought and Elon Musk in destroying USAID, we can expect “at least 9.4 million additional deaths by 2030, if the current funding trend continues.
About 2.5 million of those deaths are projected to be children under the age of 5.”

This sounds more like Stephen Miller than Trump
Trump's cheese is completely off his cracker:
This is the King Lear "I Will Avenge Myself Later - I Don't Know How Yet But Just Wait You'll See" bullshit. His mind is gone

These two assholes are having a conversation like things are just totally normal with ICE and all we need is to have some administrative recommendations on improved training and standard operating procedures. “How can we fix the Gestapo” is a ridiculous tack. ICE must be abolished.
