'Project Esther outlined [a] plan to fight antisemitism by branding a broad range of critics of Israel as “effectively a terrorist support network,” so that they could be deported, defunded, sued, fired, expelled, ostracized and ... excluded from ... “open society.”'

Nothing screams HYPOCRITE quite like Trump complaining about & gutting school loan forgiveness for grads dedicated to service & bettering our communities while he’s had HUNDREDS of MILLIONS in debt forgiven due bankruptcy 6 times.

Report: Trump Had Over $280 Million In Debt Forgiven And Avoided Paying Taxes On Most Of It
The debt largely came from his Chicago tower.

This is a bigger issue than people realize. Not just jobs lost. But their families losing benefits. Landlords losing tenants. Cities and towns losing revenue. This is how recessions start

Ready Fire Aim is no way to govern.
More accurate, fewer words;

"There are plenty of contractors going under".

A friend furloughed 75% of staff (furlough w/paying for health insurance for three months), 50% exec pay cut, 25% rest of staff to keep as many people w/salary.

PS: Wasn't 18F a government office, not a contractor.

However much contempt you have for Lutnick is too little. The U.S. and Russia conned Ukraine out of its self-defense capabilities in the 90s; then Russia took Crimea in '14 and we did nothing; then Putin violated a 2019 ceasefire; now Ukraine faces genocide. Still Zelensky has thanked us 100+ times.
Lutnick on Zelenskyy: "You gotta say, 'We love America, We appreciate America' ... Instead he said, 'I want $300b in reparations from Russia. I want them off my land. I want all the land.' Really! All the land ... it's just way too far. That's not a peacemaker. That's a troublemaker."

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.
