$11.3 billion could cover any of the following for a full year:
-1.4 million people on Medicaid
-19 million kids getting free school lunches
-1.4 million people getting affordable housing
-1.1 million hungry seniors fed
-0.8 million children given free child care
Not only is Fox a necessary condition for Trump to ever be President, Fox also has an accelerating effects on the horrors Trump produces as President.
This is huge! The European Court of Justice, the top EU court, has ruled that EU member states must provide a process to change gender markers on identity documents for trans people.

Over a week ago, in the FT, the *shipping* guys were saying "it's not just insurance. We just don't actually want our ships blown up."

That really is what it’s going to take.
You know how in like heist movies there’s one member of the crew who keeps killing people and doing stuff that wasn’t in the plan?

As a point of comparison, the US spent $21 billion in FY 2022 to feed billions of breakfasts and lunches to kids in schools across our whole country for an entire year under the universal school meals program that was later discontinued.
hey what if we made the entire government and the entire economy out of corruption

It’s very funny that the strongest defense the WH has is that he’s just constantly lying
