This isn't about small government; it's about making money off of it.
The IRS can't collect taxes if there's no staff to do it.
Reagan went senile before he could "nationalize" the parks.
The mega-rich still have plans.
I have decided Trump is on a revenge tour to make Americans all pay for his failed insurrection
Nothing else makes sense
It tracks because we know he has a vengeful streak
I don’t know how we protect ourselves and the vulnerable through this nightmare
We don’t need everything to be a concrete jungle anyways
NOAA generates $9 in economic benefits for every $1 spent
NWS generates roughly $75 in economic benefits for every $1 spent
MAGA is an obnoxiously vocal minority - and we need to remind them of this.
I expect there's also a great deal of conceit involved: "WE'RE worthy and YOU'RE not!" crow the gloating idiot savants. They glory in being Muskkk's Special Boyz. . .
It's a so-called "magic trick"! Look for the truth!

Felon Trump is violating the Constitution, acting unconstitutionally
Fully impeachable.
Is about deconstructing government until we left with local warlords.
We need a list. Side-by-side comparisons of what each program brings in vs expenses.
Not from this year, because it is too much of a mess to be measured.
They FA, they gonna FO.
It's about destroying America on purpose.

Tariffs are to extort and break alliances.
With NPS it $7.50 for $1.00 ...
With IRS Enforcement it is something over $10 for $1 ...
And I know there are others!
It's not a bug, it's a feature.
