The fact that the US sends billions to fight proxy wars while Americans can barely pay for essential basic services such as rent, food, water, utilities says all you need to know where your politician’s priorities are. And this ain’t just a Biden or Democrat issue, this is what happens when special interests own the political landscape and the people are just made to believe that YOU, the people have a voice.

So where is the funding of americas disasters? I’m tired of hard earned tax payer money funding other wars and crimes when our country is bleeding from the inside. What about Hawaii?.. why is it when something bad that happens to Americans the GOV turns and helps others besides our own.

these are the same kinds of women who would have been crushing on Adolphus back in the days of the big one - bizarre fanatics who appear to be guided more by the instincts of our chimp-like ancestors
