Trump and DOGE want to slash the FDIC's workforce by 20%, leaving fewer watchdogs on the beat to police Wall Street misconduct.

Remember: the FDIC was created during the Depression to protect people's deposit accounts.

Gutting it could lead to another financial meltdown.

At least 140,000 children and 67,000
adults have died as a result of Musk, the orange, and Rubio terminating USAID support to healthcare and food aid. The lag effects of HIV/AIDs, TB and malnutrition will soon start increasing the toll more rapidly.
Never forget that the richest man in the world chose to take food from the mouths of the world’s poorest children.

Burn in hell.

The $400,000,000 Trump is withholding from Columbia University is no arbitrary amount. It was the amount Donald wanted Columbia to pay him for land he owned. They refused. And Donald was furious. That was 25 years ago. And petty Donald has not forgotten.

The economy is showing severe warning signs after Trump's first month in office. This shouldn't be surprising. He doesn't understand the economy and tanked pretty much every business he ever touched. youtu.be/zbh9SW5Cgqg?...

If you don't think America is corrupt, Pam Bondi, the Florida Attorney General who took a bribe, was sworn in as the US Attorney General by Clarence Thomas, a SCOTUS Justice who routinely takes bribes.

I can think of at least eight federal laws that have been broken by Musk and his goons over the last few days, and at least two provisions of the U.S. Constitution.

They must be stopped.
