This fetid landmark, this historical stain on humanity is primarily due to the stunningly reckless obliteration of America's foreign assistance agency earlier this year.

Pete Hegseth thinks he's playing a video game when he wastes billions of our tax dollars blowing up boats thousands of miles from the US coast. Murder is not a game. He's destroying the standing of the US on the world stage.

It will take America *decades*—not merely years—to recover from what these robber barons did to us.

They destroyed our government, caused untold pain to the average American directly and indirectly, and used our money as their piggy bank.

And all of it *should* have been criminal.

American scientists were once able to go about their work free of political interference. But since Donald Trump returned to office, government scientists with disfavored views have been fired or muzzled.

With all the attention to ACA subsidies, the fact that the GOP's Big Ugly Bill cut a Half a Trillion Dollars from Medicare has been largely ignored. The media should explain how this is going to impact Medicare recipients!

Next year, Donald Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill" will hand $67 BILLION of YOUR taxpayer dollars over to corporations for a single tax break.

Why? To "incentivize" research these companies did years ago.

Let that sink in. YOUR money being used to boost Amazon's profits even more.
