Keep in mind that Pete Hegseth's reported Pentagon spending spree happened just months after Trump and Republicans made devastating cuts to the social safety net in exchange for huge tax cuts for the rich.

And defense spending may soon hit a record $1.5 trillion.

Priorities.

They are not โ€œIsraeli Settlersโ€. They are rabid dogs, criminals and assassins endorsed by the Zionist Entity for decades now to murder and oust Palestinians in the West Bank from their ancestral lands.

Good news: the state of Kentucky set a state record and doubled its solar energy in 2025.

Kentucky jumped from 40th to 11th in U.S. state rankings for solar energy installed in just two years.

Nice work!๏ฟผ

It has been this way since time immemorial.
Spending a billion a day on a โ€˜notโ€™ war.
Meanwhile, all you suckers can starve, die because you canโ€™t afford healthcare or find new treatments for disease. And who the fuck needs education and arts?

We arenโ€™t mad enough!!

"Raping" children is the proper term.
Children never consent to "having sex" they are
raped. Period.
