Odd how the turns have tabled… Trump reversed course and admitted that Russia did, in fact, invade Ukraine. International news sources and independent media have stepped up to keep Americans informed.

So many dumbasses were sold on America being run like a business. And now it is. We have been stripped for parts and those sold off to the highest bidder. Now we languish until we declare bankruptcy and get liquidated. Enjoy what you voted for, fuckwads.

#Trump intends to weaponize every department of government he can. After yelling at Governor Janet Mills for hurting his feelings, the Education Department has launched a probe into Maine. This is textbook political persecution and possibly a violation of states' rights.
