U.S. military spending is set to hit a record $1 trillion.
Roughly half of defense spending goes to private contractors that routinely price-gouge the government.
Meanwhile, the Pentagon has failed seven straight audits.
This is the military industrial complex on steroids.

You don't grow the economy through trickle-down nonsense.

The Constitution doesn’t say “We the People… unless the President or the Court says otherwise.”
Yet that’s exactly what’s happening.
We can’t wait for permission to defend it.
We must STAY LOUD.

Governors saying the actions of ICE will not be tolerated while doing nothing to enforce those words is getting mighty old. Have any ICE agents been arrested on any state charges. What do they expect from their constituents when the people in power are only delivering lip service.
