The thing that makes me the sickest is that these folks donβt even have a shred of compassion. Itβs one thing to enforce laws and rules. Itβs another to do it gleefully and celebrate the suffering of someone born into poverty and desperation

Argentina? Oh, & the

trump has absolutely fucked the US soybean market permanently. The only way to get it back is to now undercut other country's prices, If China will ever buy from us again.
And I don't think they will.
He has essentially eliminated the largest export industry we've ever had, and it ain't coming back.
Trump wraps up a speech to military leaders that represented a major escalation of his effort to weaponize the armed forces into a tool he can use to violently quash domestic dissent. Hard to imagine how anyone with a shred of dignity can keep serving after this, which of course is the point.
