It would cost $38 billion dollars to extend the Affordable Care Act subsidies for another year and ensure Americans don’t lose their healthcare.
The republicans said no.
Trump sent $40 billion to Argentina and they didn’t object.
Argentina first, America last.

musk illegally seized control of the treasury and now wants to end social security and medicare and plunge tens of millions of americans into destitution so that we won’t go “bankrupt,” a thing that practically-speaking can’t happen
Musk: "The waste and fraud in entitlement spending -- that's the big one to eliminate. That's the half trillion, maybe 600 or 700 billion a year. That's also the mechanism by which Democrats attract & retain illegal immigrants by essentially paying them to come here & then turning them into voters."

If one thinks about what Europe is evaluating right now, Ukraine & European security are at the forefront. And that's correct. At the same time, I encourage people to recognize that an outside observer doesn't just see us as trashing our allies; they see us as self-destructing from within.
