Trump is canceling aid because someone dared to stand up to him?

What a whiney weak little boy.

And everyone making an excuse for this is a beta.

I'm 75 years old and feel helpless with what is happening to our country right now. I speak out as much as possible on social media, but my disability makes it nearly impossible to attend protests in my area.

If you are working you don't have time to evaluate and the large media let America down. Ex: no one talks about the Trump election with millions of votes missing from the prior election to the last one. No one talks about the voters challenged by GOP with their lost vote in swing states.

The review of this book on your program today woke me up--and sent me back to my practice of mindfulness meditation, which I had have ignored in recent days because I was too busy being distracted by news and events to take out 20 minutes to breathe. Thank you.

Because thanks to the Heritage Foundation, our Govt. Is filled with anti Democratic Nazis blatantly committing “SEDITION” & not ONE Dem or MSM is calling it out. We should all be demanding charges against them!

Update: The contracts for this particular lifesaving treatment have now been restored, I'm told.

That's very good news. But huge numbers of contracts for other essential lifesaving items remain canceled.

Pressure can work.
Horrific: One of the USAID programs Trump just terminated was set to deliver lifesaving treatment to hundreds of thousands of starving kids abroad. Much of it is now sitting in a Georgia warehouse.

Rubio's promise to preserve urgent assistance was a lie.

If you've never been part of a government procurement process, it might be hard to understand just how much of a "go to prison" thing this would have been at any point from 1946-2024.
This sort of comic book corruption is quite literally illegal in every single country in the world that has written laws. I don't even know what else you say about this, it's amazing

Trump’s State of the Union should have been about peace-he promised to get that done before he took office while campaigning. His idea of peace turned out to be forcing Kyiv to take responsibility for Russia’s invasion, give up resources & accept occupation. joycevance.substack.com/p/the-week-a...
