Reminder as @lbc.co.uk runs the feed of tRump greeting SawBones Saudi in the White House whilst Tory Tommy @tomswarbrick.bsky.social takes the piss that Tommy was the very tRump cheerleader who, before the election, said a tRump presidency would be 'exciting'.

Trump put Billy Long in charge of the IRS. Long's ambition has been to dismantle it.
Not for you, but because the rich don't want to pay taxes.
No IRS, not enough funds for social security checks.
Trumper, you have very likely fucked over your parents and yourself.

And that the organization mainly exists to taunt victimized families and communities after mass shootings?
