Hard to keep up with all the depressing, heartless news surrounding this administration. The latest:
Dismantling FEMA, the agency that responds to disasters across the US. There were 27 weather-related disasters in 2024 with over $1 billion each in damages. Is your homeowners policy up to date?
Tariffs worldwide. Warren Buffet says they are an act of war. Tariffs are job killers, and consumers pay for them and will suffer. Here comes a recession…
Department of Veteran Affairs, which is the medical delivery system for nine million veterans, slashed by 80,000 jobs. Clinical trials stopped for enrolling veterans in studies to treat serious diagnoses unresponsive to other treatments.
We have 50,000 South African immigrants arriving soon. Could this be related to an Elon payback?
Thank goodness the Army has a 250th anniversary coming up that coincides with Bonespur’s 80th birthday. Now he gets his military parade. What would John McCain say? The one planned back in 2016 was budgeted to cost $92 million. Let your kids, with their five pencils instead of 250, do calculations on today’s cost.
All the government wreckage is to give tax cuts to the rich. History shows from 1944-1963, the tax rate for the wealthy was 90%. I like that idea. Think how the entitlement programs would be rescued and solvent for a long time and no longer the punching bag of the extreme right.
