Their closing message to Indiana: change your maps to artificially benefit the President's political party or 'roads will not be paved' as punishment.
They are openly saying this.
Who would want to live in a country that works like that?

Kelly: He runs around on stage talking about lethality and the warrior ethos.. That’s not the message that should be coming from the Secretary of Defense… He runs around on a stage like he’s a 12 year old playing army. It’s embarrassing.

Keir Starmer, "Tax rises do make life harder for people, I understand that, it's obvious"
It's also obvious that a wealth tax of 1% on those with £10m+ would NOT make life harder for the rich - thats also obvious 🤷♂️

Around 26,000 of the neediest people in County Durham will have to start paying council tax next year...
About 2,400 others who already pay some council tax will lose part of their rebate.
Women and the disabled will be disproportionately affected.

Choose your leaders with wisdom and forethought. To be led by a fool is to be led by the opportunists who control the fool. To be led by a thief is to offer up your most precious treasures. To be led by a liar is to ask to be told lies. To be led by a tyrant is to sell yourself into slavery.

…where is he while Israel continues to breach ceasefire, bulldoze homes, kill children and restrict humanitarian aid?
