There's more homeless in America today than there ever was. All of that money was not only wasted, but it was stolen by Democrats and their cronies. Good riddance.

We already see the huge shift in the media messaging now that our government stopped funding them. Good riddance.

What is a library? Oh... right. It's that place where 10 year old kids can go to rent books about how they should transition to the opposite sex without telling their parents and that their teachers will keep their secrets. And let's be honest... our kids haven't learned how to read books in school for the last 15 years, and some of them probably don't even know what a book is, let alone a library.

GOOD FUCKING RIDDANCE.

I believe in solving problems, not sharing them.

A MIXED BAG

Quote:
The president targeted the U.S. Agency for Global Media, which is the parent company of Voice of America (VOA),

Good. VOA was one place where the CIA planted stories so they could be propagated elsewhere

Quote:
as well as the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars in the Smithsonian Institution

Wilson was our first internationalist President

Quote:
b and the Institute of Museum and Library Services, an agency that supports libraries, archives and museums in every state.

Libraries, like the postal service, were established by Ben Franklin so that knowledge and communication were accessible to everyone, not just the wealthy with private libraries and post service. I know you and Trump may be too ADHD to read an entire book, but complicated ideas need more than just X for explanation. Libraries also provide internet access to people who don't have it at home (yes, there are such people) so don't be so niggardly about them

Quote:
He also dismantled the United States Interagency Council on Homelessness, which aims to prevent and end homelessness in the U.S.;

Wow, hasn't done any good, has it?

Quote:
Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service, an agency focused on preventing, minimizing and resolving work stoppages and labor disputes;

This goes along with gutting the NLRB and eliminating unions. You're gonna wish they were back, if you ever go back into the official labor force

Quote:
the Community Development Financial Institutions Fund, which aims to expand economic opportunity for underserved communities; and the Minority Business Development Agency, which promotes growth of minority-owned businesses.

Yep, don't see that doing much good either. Not a whole lot of busines development in high crime, low education neighborhoods.

BRENDA

Yes, heaven forbid anyone wanting to use a library. There are history books there and history is bad. Science books are there and science is bad.

There is also literature in libraries from almost any time period. Books like "The Prince and the Pauper" written by Mark Twain.

Books by Charles Dickens, Rudyard Kipling, the plays of William Shakespeare.

Books by men dead longer than those I mentioned in the above sentence. Plato, Socrates.

Books on art. Da Vinci, Michelangelo, Van Gogh, Gaugin

Books on music - Mozart, Beethoven, John Lennon

Books by men of war. Sun Tzu, Julius Caesar, Churchill

Religious books like your bleeding bible

Nobody is closing any libraries.

More fearmongering from the same people who give Ted his bad information that never pans out every day.

And as for me personally, until we figure out how to stop adding more than the cost of my house to the national debt every single second to keep up this bullshit illusion the world has been living under, I'm not worried about it anyway.

Nobody is telling you that your personal share of the national debt of your country is $106,000 like they're telling all of us it is. Who the fuck authorized that? What are they spending that on? How many tens or even hundreds of thousands of federal employees are we paying for that we don't need, with their premium healthcare and obscene retirement packages, paid for by taxing the shit out of the middle class until they've got nothing else left to give, and then making the money printers go BRRRRRRRRRRRRRR! The only reason your ass would be on the line for anything is if America failed and our military was gone and everyone is on their own. You guys get free healthcare. We get eternal war on our fucking dime, an ass-raping by the healthcare and pharmaceutical industries every day, and judgment from people like you who get to sit safely on the sidelines with your US military protection AND free healthcare and judge everyone else.

Every time they print money, it's like a company splitting the stock. But instead of you having two shares, they took one of those shares, gave it to somebody else who probably didn't earn it, and now you got half as much as you had yesterday. At 2% inflation, the halving of money is supposed to be gradual and take 20 years. Joe Biden* virtually cut our buying power in half 5 times as fast.

Nobody understands that everything that's happening today was going to happen tomorrow anyway because there will come a day when our money printers can't print any money.... at least money that anybody else would take. And the longer we go without fixing the problems the worse it is going to be. And quite frankly, I don't think we have a chance in hell at fixing anything because we waited 20 years too long before doing something about it.

Joe Biden* oversaw the first time that the interest alone on our debt every year COSTS MORE THAN THE YEARLY FUCKING OBSCENE MILITARY EXPENSES DO.

I'm done being emotionally manipulated into the failure of my country, and most everyone else is too. THIS is why nobody trusts the news anymore and why the Democratic Party is dead.
