Since January, SpaceX has received over $560 million in government contracts—an amount projected to surpass $2 billion in taxpayer funding by year’s end, averaging roughly $6.1 million per day. Follow the money and see where it goes.

I think there is going to be a Red Rural Recession and soon if all the cuts continue as is
All the firings, cancelling of grants and contracts with companies , the closing of offices, disproportionately impact small towns, cities and states.
Their finances will be turned upside

American Public Schools Didn’t Cause This.
The Religious Right did!

Wow. Caroline Kennedy breaks her silence on RFK Jr in a message to Senators: “We grew up together. It’s no surprise that he keeps birds of prey as pets because Bobby himself is a predator. He enjoyed showing off by putting baby chickens & mice in a blender to feed to his hawks.”

What spurred this on was passing by a usually empty campground that is now full of tiny homes and donated trailers. Please don't forget VA,TN,&GA. The city of Irwin TN was wiped off the map.Pray or donate for us!
