that’s $1.8 billion
all the American people
should be furious

Based on the Editorial written by the Editorial Board of the New York Times, Inside the $1.8 Billion MAGA Payout Fund.
The Editorial Board wrote:
$1.8 billion.
That’s $1.8 billion of your tax dollars potentially going into a slush fund to reward President Trump’s loyalists.
“Designed to provide payments to Americans who claim to be victims of what he describes as government weaponization.”
In one-dollar bills, that would stack more than 100 miles.
And if it were split evenly among the Jan. 6 rioters, each one would receive more than $1 million.
The administration says it’s just —— “Reimbursing people that were horribly treated ——” “Compensating Americans for the lawfare that we saw under the last administration.”
That is false.
The American people should be furious that Trump’s allies could get paid a pile of tax money that’s around the amount that the president cut from health research last year.
This is the opinion of the New York Times editorial board.
Lets be clear about one thing I have only lately come to understand.
Holding the office of President of the United States is just the means to which the goal can be achieved.
The Presidency is incidental to the plan of the people who maintain that man currently in office … in office.
I have LONG said, however, that I can only explain that the hangers-on of the man currently in office, hang on, hang on to the bitter end, only in hopes that by staying near to his universe, there may, someday, be a paycheck or a tip.
It is the equivalent of buying a lottery ticket WHEN BUYING A LOTTERY TICKET is possibly the best use of your retirement plans.
In that respect, I can understand the motivation.
I can understand the motivation, but I have to question the cost.
The sell out.
It is bad and its getting worse but DING DING DING, the long hoped for payoff is on the horizon.
As the Editorial Board closes their opinion piece, “Trump is showing that he will use his power to protect people who break the law on his behalf, and even reward them for it.”
AND BELIEVE ME, this is just the start.
I cannot imagine the extent to which further payoffs will be coming as that current man in office tries to buy his way out of the mid terms (if he becomes so inclined to save the republican party) or further problems for himself and his money.
He has already achieved immunity from the Supreme Court for anything he does while currently holding office.
He had now achieved immunity from the IRS.
You remember the IRS?
That was who finally got Al Capone for failure to pay taxes.
Well, that man currently in office has eliminated that worry for himself.
I am convinced that despite his name being plastered on everything, really cares nothing for his place in history.
Its his money money money.
If anything bothers him, its the headlines that that Musk feller may soon become the world’s first Trillionaire.
Besides that though, he loves money and he will use money to get more money.
The American people should be furious.
Yet for so many, betting on that current man in office is the best hope they have.
Despite the sell out.
Despite knowing better.
As Tom Sawyer said to Huckleberry Finn (and yes I have used this quote before and I will use it again):
“Right is right, and wrong is wrong, and a body ain’t got no business doing wrong when he ain’t ignorant and knows better.”
