The U.S. government has become a neofascist regime run by a sociopath.
Keeping it funded now is to participate in the most atrocious abuse of power in U.S. history.
So I for one have decided that the best route is to shut the whole thing down.

Remember: There is nothing natural or inevitable about extreme inequality; it’s the result of an economic system that values wealth and power over human dignity and justice.
It doesn't have to be this way.

The job market is drying up. Prices continue to rise. Millions are living paycheck to paycheck. 70% of U.S. adults say the American Dream is dead.
What has Trump been up to lately?
Hobnobbing with billionaire Big Tech CEOs and profiting off the presidency with crypto schemes.

Trump tried to twist a 200-year-old law to deport Venezuelan migrants detained in South Texas to a PRISON in El Salvador — calling them an 'armed force.' A judge (HIS judge!) just shut it down.
A lie ain’t the law.

Do you know how much CEO pay has skyrocketed since 1978?
100%? 500%?
Try 1,085%
Meanwhile, the $7.25/hr fed. minimum wage hasn't budged in 15 years and the tipped min. wage has been $2.13/hr since 1991.
This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.
