Bending the Knee and Politics in 2025

I'm getting notifications from friends — wonderful people who have spent honorable careers in the relief and development world — getting tossed into unemployment.

Some are married couples working with the same agency.

The money the gov't. saves on their salaries will end up in the pocket of President Combover and his scumbag family of crooks and liars. Because they need more money.

They generally aren't even USAID employees. They are with NGOs who are getting their contracts cancelled.

I should write that they are getting illegally cancelled, but what is and isn't legal has become a real rubbery thing.

So same thing. If the gov't. isn't saving on salaries, it's saving on contracts. It's still money. It's not like some other entity is now gonna render those services. Can't believe the country is allowing this. In the other thread, some jackass writes a whole fucking novel to defend President Combover against supposedly false and malicious allegations of tax violations, ignoring that the madman led a country-wide plot to steal an election and overthrow an elected government by submitting phony electoral college slates and attacking the Capitol building. The madman should be in jail for the rest of his life for that alone. But he beat all criminal charges, survived a second impeachment and the insurrectionist clause of the US Constitution.

And now voters are begging their GOP representatives to do something even though all they'll do is continue to bullshit their constituents. Why they don't finally vote Dem instead of wasting their time trying to convince GOP scumbags and sadists is beyond me. Decent people who want to improve the lives of ordinary, vulnerable and powerless people, Dems are. If the people don't get fed up to the point that they'll vote Dem, they deserve everything they get. Or don't get.

Have youse been watching these GOP town halls where constituents are voicing their displeasure? What a load of shit. It's the same crap. Scumbag Republicans feeding their voters canned talking points that came from up above. More bullshit. More lies. More condescension. One voter complained about the megalomaniac in the White House now wearing a king's crown and the congressman responded that Biden was the one that acted like a king.

When are these jackasses going to vote Democrat? What the fuck is it gonna take? What are they scared about? If they still don't see the danger, they deserve all the trauma that's coming their way. They're goddamn frogs stewing in boiling water. They still think that their scumbag GOP politicians are gonna help them. Yeah, if they're billionaires.
