USAID.gov is down. Why is this concerning? Trump has no legal authority to eliminate a congressionally funded independent agency. The work of USAID is vital, and if this can happen to them, it can happen to any of us.

Those conservative think tanks have their own agenda. Cut taxes even further for the ultra-wealthy donors that pay them to exist.

Another reason I’m glad I’m in Maine. This is some utter BS.
