6/ Here's another one. Trump snuck $40 million in this bill for a "statue garden". Likely will be filled with MAGA "heroes", reportedly maybe somewhere in South Dakota.

Plenty of money for Trump statue gardens, but not enough money to keep feeding hungry kids.

Massive amounts of money get wasted in politics and many people don't even know what happens to their money after donating.

And then this shit just came out.

When you’re making over $700k a year, gaining $12k is nothing. It’s a nice vacation, redoing the garage, giving a niece/nephew a car.

When you’re making $23k a year, losing $1600 is “are we paying for food or for the house or for medical bills” territory.
Budzinski: Families making over $700,000 a year will see a boost of $12,000 almost entirely from tax cuts. Shockingly, households making $23,000 a year or less are set to lose about $1600 a year, mostly due to deep cuts to Medicaid and food assistance

Here's your periodic reminder that political centrism is nonsense. There is no middle ground between democracy and oligarchy.

You should NOT be allowed to buy a f*cking gun silencer in the USA let alone take a tax deduction on one. Words cannot express how much I loathe Trump & his voters.

I will never forget that the week Qatar decided to bribe the president of the United States with a plane, CNN decided to focus on the age and health of an ex-president.

Shame.

Good morning.

Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors.

It's the biggest scandal in the history of the Presidency.

1. Calling it a ‘constitutional obstacle’ is far too soft.

The Constitution explicitly forbids a third term.

This isn’t an obstacle—it’s a hard legal wall.
