Everyone wants there to be a grand scheme behind all of this but the terrible truth is that extremely stupid people are in charge and they have a fanatical devotion to wrong, childlike concepts of society and economics cooked up by right wing radio hosts in order to sell tainted dietary supplements

Pro Defense Tip: those who don't take accountability can't be trusted not to make the same mistake again.
Only someone who pledges responsibility can learn from their mistakes.
If you won't admit to or recognize the consequences of your actions, then you're pledging future negligence instead.

Spanberger: I think the governor of Virginia has a primary job, and that is to stand up for Virginia and to stand up for Virginians. What is just unbelievable at this moment is that our governor and our lieutenant governor are doing neither.

Trans people have served honorably in our armed forces for years & saved their comrades lives in battle. Those that are actively hunting down Trans military members, those that support this hunt - YOU are the ones that are a disgrace to the flag they serve under.

I realize it would never even get put up for a vote. But, you send the message that you aren't against reviewing every nickel spent. You are against misleading narratives.
And by putting it on social media, even though they are already on gov websites like USAspending.gov, this connects to all

<taps on microphone to make sure it's working>: A judge placing a hold or restraining order on actions that may be illegal or cause irreparable harm is not an "activist judge." They are, in fact, acting in a demonstrably conservative manner.

Suggestion to Americans: If you used a current bank account with funds on a recent tax return, it may be wise to contact your bank and request a change. Account and routing numbers are accessible, and Elon Musk’s staff have access to this information. Stay safe and protect your assets.
