Hey US, you good?

We were planning on going back to visit family, pero.. I feel like I would come there, and get deported 😂😭 Like what's going on..?

People are literally raising Nazi symbols, as if they wouldn’t be arrested or fined for that in most other countries. Meanwhile, the same people cry about anti-Semitism when they see pro-Palestinian demonstrations—as if the Nazi symbol itself isn’t the biggest threat to Jews. Make it make sense.

Not to mention all the plane crashes.. You telling me that a military helicopter, crashed with a plane, on a very known route and that don't seem hella sus? How tf.

And ofc the endless hate on women..

Maybe I'm overthinking🙄

We've got chaos, nobody knows if we're OK or not.

For example, on Jan 20 or 21 Tяump signed an executive order freezing all US government grants, loans, and some other forms of aid. What Tяump didn't seem to realize is:

(1) government spending is set by laws passed by Congress, and the Constitution assigns the "power of the purse" to Congress, not the president.
(2) much of government spending goes out to states in the form of "block grants." Things like aid for the elderly, transportation, health programs, education etc are all distributed as big grants. This is a result of states' rights advocacy pushing for states to have more choice in how their federal money is spent.

So Tяump's dummasss order froze a whole lot of money that people needed, expected, and had the right to by act of Congress. A judge soon blocked Tяump's dummasss order, but - I have friends in state gov't - the chaos is still being unsnarled.

And that's not the only instance. I could go on, but you get the picture. We have chaos.

@ElwoodBlues That's why it's good to actually elect politicians ie. people who are experts in how government works.

@ElwoodBlues I'm being told I'm not allowed to view one of your posts. Do you know why that would be?
@ffony I have no idea. Maybe the original poster blocked you? Can you try opening in a private window or something like that?
