Wow. This dude is straight up evil. And he's been given the unaccountable keys to the kingdom.
In case you still don't get it, he (and his puppet "king") does not care about you. At all.

If you are wondering why the country that helped America with its recent forest fires is being punished with more tariffs than China, which never helps America, Elon Musk owns an enormous car manufacturing plant in Shanghai.

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it.
Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice.
But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word.
They aren’t firing for a reason.

45 and his boot lickers are viciously cold hearted.
I think some people hear “grants” and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service.
“Pausing” grants means people don’t eat.

The Trump administration has put a hold on all federal financial grants and loans, affecting tens of billions of dollars in payments.
