Disabled Navy vet, dad to 3 amazing kids and padre to anyone that needs one. Husband to an incredible wife. Vols, Steelers, penguins fan. Horror is my default movie-going experience. I miss boring politics, policy discussions, and adults being in charge.

So far I count 10 in whole & 4 in part, while Trump is threatening/planning several more (items 5, 9, 11, 15, 20, & 23).
Thoughts?

Musk benefits from Trump's presidency in more ways than one.

You will read countless times today that the LA mayor cut the LA Fire Department's budget by $23 million.
That is a lie.
The budget was actually *increased* by $50 million.
