www.congress.gov/bill/119th-c... Go read through this. They HATE poor people, they HATE the idea that we need to mitigate climate change, they could not care less about our environment, and they want huge tax giveaways to corporations and the rich. Millions will lose health care. Deficit explodes.

Elon Musk says that no one has died because he slashed humanitarian aid. I went to South Sudan to check if that's true. It's not. Meet Peter, Achol and Evan, ages 10, 8 and 5. The reckless actions of the world's richest men are killing the world's poorest kids www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Opinion | Musk Said No One Has Died Since Aid Was Cut. That Isn’t True. (Gift Article)
A journey through the front lines of global poverty shows that when the world’s richest men slash aid for the world’s poorest children, the result is sickness, starvation and death.

I have covered presidential politics for 40 years. This was the most juvenile display by a President and Vice President I have ever seen. Other presidents treated their enemies with more respect. This is a low point and a dark day for the US. Totally embarrassing.

The inverted flag isn’t disrespect — it’s a distress signal from naval traditions, used to show grave danger to life or property. With a lawless man set to take power after attempting to overthrow the government, America is in extreme danger. That’s why I’m posting it today.
