The values reflected by taking healthcare away to fund cutting taxes for the wealthy are despicable.
Wrapping up a week in Bologna. Experiencing the familiar dread of going from a walkable, planned environment with trains and transit to the car-is-king, sidewalk-less American southeastern US. We tolerate such poor standards.

I still sometimes sit in moments of brief shock that our country re-elected him after the January 6 attack on Congress.
