The simple truth is that Trump believes that, if we send money to a county in exchange for stuff, we've just lost because now they have our money
Trump: "I spoke to a lot of leaders -- European, Asian, from all over the world. They are dying to make a deal, but I said 'we're not gonna have deficits with your country' ... to me a deficit is a loss. We're gonna have surpluses or at worst we're gonna be breaking even."

Like the MAGA movement itself, these officials blend ignorance and arrogance in equal measure.
The GOP Congress isn't doing basic oversight (though this might force their hand), and the inspectors general across various departments were purged as well.
This won't end well. For them, for us.

This is the simple pattern in everything this administration has done: They don’t know what they’re doing.
The chainsawing of agencies, the market-tanking stop-and-go tariffs, the war plans dumped unwittingly to a journalist on an open channel.
They’re idiots. They have no idea what they’re doing.

To think “Christian” Mike Johnson read this report, including Gaetz paying a minor for sex, and didn’t try to stop the behavior but actually took steps to allow it to KEEP GOING tells you all you need to know about how morally bankrupt MAGA is.
Every committee member who voted against release should be read this list and asked to explain why they wanted to hide these findings from the public.

I think about all the women whose lives he damaged. Even if they did take money to have sex with him of their own free will that doesn’t mean he didn’t corrupt many of them or that he is any less of a predator. His behavior of course protected by MAGA

Garcia: The fact he is handing over Elon Musk the keys to the federal government to destroy our institutions with a fake department.. shows how irresponsible he is with the seriousness of the moment. He is not focused on helping people, but taking away things they depend on.

Bernard Lichtenberg (1875 - 1943) was a German Catholic priest who, on the eve of the deportations in Berlin, dared to pray openly for the Jews. The Gestapo arrested him. He asked to be placed on the trains with the Jews but was not allowed. He died on route to Dachau. Drawing by me.
