Pretty hard to ignore the facts.

Everything this *administration has done is weakening the Unites States.

Tariffs, screwing with NATO, killing scientific and medical research, crippling the disaster response both foreign and domestic, gutting the federal government wholesale, cutting Medicare, medicade, and SS, encouraging Putin, alienating all of our traditional allies, literally everything seems to be designed to break the US, domestically, financially, and internationally.

It seems they are intentionally trying to end us.

Stopping FED spending in Trillions on Waste, fraud and abuse has you in tears?


Tarriffs? See below. Piglousy used to be for it.
A nearly three-decade-old clip has resurfaced showing a much younger Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) giving a speech in the House of Representatives where she demanded reciprocal tariffs against China.

“How far does China have to go? How much more repression, how big a trade deficit and loss of jobs for the American worker, and how much more dangerous proliferation has to exist before members of this House of Representatives will say, ‘I will not endorse the status quo?’” she questioned her colleagues in a scorching lecture.

“In terms of tariffs, I think it’s interesting to note that the average US MFN [Most Favored Nation] tariff on Chinese goods coming into the United States is 2%, whereas the average Chinese MFN tariff on US goods going into China is 35%,” she continued. “Is that reciprocal?”

Yet, nothing needs cleaned up or repaired?

Yet, nothing needs cleaned up or repaired? I could go on. DOGE to date has stopped/saved over $250B in waste or fraud.

In a bombshell revelation, the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has exposed a shocking level of federal spending abuse, revealing that the U.S. government has over 4.6 million active credit cards in circulation, processing a staggering 90 million transactions worth nearly $40 billion in Fiscal Year 2024 alone.

DOGE, the new federal watchdog agency established under President Donald Trump, posted its findings on X on Tuesday, accompanied by a breakdown of federal agency expenditures.

“The US government currently has ~4.6M active credit cards/accounts, which processed ~90M unique transactions for ~$40B of spend in FY24. DOGE is working w/ the agencies to simplify the program and reduce admin costs – we will report back in 1 week,” the account wrote.

Leading the charge in spending? None other than the Department of Defense (DOD), which boasts roughly 2.4 million individual accounts and a jaw-dropping 27.2 million transactions in just one fiscal year.
