Rep. Ilhan Omar: "I hope he gets the help he needs. It sounds like he's trying to deflect from the failures that he's had as president ... he's fought to be the head of the pedophile protection party."

No-strings-attached, zero-means-testing, no-questions-asked cash payouts have been proven, over and over again, to be the most effective form of charity/aid going.

It gets people in housing, and it saves the state money. We know this. It's fact, not theory.
An Oregon pilot program giving cash to homeless youths sees a staggering reduction in homelessness. The program gave participants $1,000 cash payments each month for two years, and at the end of the project's first phase, 91% of participants reported being in stable housing.

"The emerging post-Trump GOP is an amalgam of neo-fascist extremists and regressive 'establishment' Republicans. These factions are at odds with each other, as well as most of the nation, raising the question what kind of party will emerge as Trump’s dominion fades." — @davidrlurie.com
Republicans in the era of Late Trumpism
The end is in sight — and it's not pretty for the GOP.
