Specifically about veterans' healthcare: Veterans surveyed supported Trump 61% to 37% Harris with 2% undecided. And it's not like the plan to screw up VA benefits was hidden, it was there in Project 2025.
If Fuckface 45 and his cronies actually take office on Jan 20, then this country as we know it is gone. It's over. It's cooked.
They need to be jailed for their crimes before getting into office.
Trump: "What is the worst idea we can implement?"
Ramaswamy:"Let's make all the people that know how to use the most complex and deadly weapons mad at us as quickly as possible!"
As a US citizen, paying for veterans healthcare and early education programs advance my interests a whole fucking lot more than paying this jackass.
Stupid piece of shit, you don't speak for us.
So DOGE is getting cut then?
Entirely typical.
Republicans have already dicked veterans over so hard that private charities have to try to make up for all of the broken promises.
And it's still not enough for them.
Please, keep pissing off the military, sounds like a FAFO-prone strategy.
America: Our soldiers are heroes!
Also America: But they don't deserve a penny and should pay exorbitant prices for healthcare...
I know this isn't all Americans, but it's more than I thought.
Touching NASA very well might be the thing that finally pushes me to actual violence.
Scientific endeavors, but specifically research and exploration of space are pretty much the only things in life I really have a passion for.
The last conservative government silenced the government scientists from discussing climate change and destroyed decades of research as they didn't believe in it and it didn't fit their Alberta oil jobs first objectives.
We are looking at another Conservative government coming our way again in the next year and it's going to be a super shit storm when our Cons and the US Cons are firing on all cylinders destroy everything they don't like or believe in. I fear it's going to take decades again to come back on the science again.
NASA is definitely a target. Musk wants to make SpaceX America's privatized space agency.
For sure
The clown is inviting more clowns and they are building up the circus, this could be funny if it wasn't so serious.
As someone with just as much federal authority as the non-existent DOGE, I also propose defunding expenditures that “don’t advance the interests of American citizens.”
And I would like to start with fucking Vivek Ramaswamy and Elon fucking Musk.
as equal authority, I propose we just lock them up.
I'm sure we can find something to actually justify it. Like, you know, betraying classified secrets to the russians, as well as providing intelligence and military aid;
if elon lied on immigration forms, strip his citizenship, seize his wealth and assets 'earned' after committing that crime, and kick him tf out.
If we're all just doing things without authority, why does it even need a legalized justification? Home Depot sells dog cages and padlocks.
Because kidnapping is one thing and seeing them convicted is another.
I want him convicted in a court of law. Legitimately.
All of these stupid fucks, to be clear. Musk. Trump. Vivek. There’s a long list of assholes that need some justice.
Wait long enough, and neither will pass the nationalist purity test. The leopards will turn inwards for face-eating sooner than some fasc-allies think, I suspect
Newly added colluding with Iranian representatives outside official government channels
grab a shovel and start digging. Also, bring the tigerbalm, there's gonna be a lot of nasty shit.
