It Wasn't Enough For The Greedy Bastards To Rob Our Treasury [View all]

The billionaires don't pay taxes, they don't get a paycheck that can be taxed. If anyone suggests a wealth tax the poor babies faint on their couches.

Krasnov and his billionaire thieves are taking taxpayer money away from federal jobs, away from government contracts, even contracts that work to cure cancer and other diseases. They stopped money going to worthy causes overseas. They are even gutting money meant for disaster relief. They are gutting money meant for healthcare.

Krasnov just announced that hundreds of millions of acres of government land and water will be open to drilling and mining. Krasnov also announced that Venezuela will be open for drilling for oil. Why wouldn't those fossil fuel companies keep gasoline prices under 3 dollars?

It appears to me that all of this money that is designed to promote the general welfare is going right into Krasnov's sovereign wealth fund. Krasnov controls all of that money, the Magat Congress delegated it to him, he can funnel it, has already funneled it into companies run by his kids.

All of that theft of our treasury wasn't enough for the greedy bastards, they had to go to war with Venezuela to make more stolen money.

The fuckers are evil, and Krasnov has total control of the military to do his bidding to steal more money.

All of those retired generals and admirals who went on TV and said that the military would do the right thing, would not disobey illegal orders were either lying or sadly mistaken.
