Do you have relevant advice for the former one?
Amen! Glad to see people appreciating and sharing "tax wealth, not work"!
Why does posse comitatus not apply here? Genuinely confused
Disgusting. CISA is absolutely critical to our national security. So much so that the first explanation of downsizing it has to be suspected intentional sabotage and treason. These experts aren't coming back

My money (while I have it) is that this is going to be the most lasting damage of Trump's presidency. Piss off the world and demonstrate we're unreliable economic partners.

Debt can get very expensive, and we've gotten used to paying very little for it. Most people aren't considering how bad this can get - I hope someone with power has been
