25 things the Biden administration spent your tax dollars on instead of updating FAA equipment:
1. $27 billion EPA Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund (“gold bars”) rushed to NGOs with political ties and almost no track record.

4. $2.05 billion in NSF grants that prioritized DEI over scientific merit.
5. $15.5 billion to push electric vehicles.
6. $12 million for a Las Vegas pickleball complex.
7. $20 million for an Arabic Sesame Street spin-off in Iraq.
8. $10 billion maintaining largely empty federal office buildings.
9. $2.1 million for border security in Paraguay.
10. $4.8 million on Ukrainian influencers.
11. $419,470 for a study on whether lonely rats seek cocaine more than other rats.
12. $10,000 for a climate-themed ice-skating drag show.
13. $22.6 billion in HHS funding for migrant resettlement, housing, and related programs.
14. $291 million in FAA grants specifically for sustainable aviation fuel and emissions reduction instead of ATC modernization.
15. $3 billion in EPA Climate Justice Block Grants.
16. $46.5 million to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in Brazil.

18. $6.2 million NIH grant studying the effects of asthma on transgender individuals.
19. $3 million for “Girl-Centered Climate Action” in Brazil.
20. $382 million in fraudulent unemployment payments, including to infants and people listed as over 100 years old.
21. $388,000 for a podcast called “Magic in the United States.”
22. $2.24 million to infect cats with COVID and study transmission (more than 30 cats killed).

That’s roughly $96 billion spent on bullshit.
A big portion of it came from the $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill and the $740 billion Inflation Reduction Act, both passed by Congress under Biden.
If you’re looking for someone to blame for yesterday’s nightmare, maybe start with Congress.
😭 I had to stop and think about — something my wife said during coffee this morning, that honestly left me completely speechless.
She was quietly watching the news… then all of a sudden, she looked at me and asked:
“If Donald Trump already had the money, the success, the properties, and the kind of lifestyle most people can only dream about… why would he choose to take on all these responsibilities?”
Before I could even answer, she said something that truly touched my heart.
“Because nobody would willingly put themselves under this much pressure unless they sincerely believed in something bigger than themselves.”
And honestly… I sat there reflecting on her words for quite a while.
Because she has a point.
Donald Trump was already 70 years old when he first became President. He had already achieved things that countless people spend their entire lives hoping to accomplish. Fame. Wealth. Business success. A lasting name.
He could have spent the rest of his days enjoying his family, playing golf, traveling, and living a peaceful and comfortable life.
But instead… he accepted the pressure.
He accepted the criticism.
He accepted the sleepless nights.
He accepted the endless responsibilities.
He accepted the sacrifices.
The family occasions he missed.
The weddings he couldn't attend. The graduations he had to witness from afar.
The countless nights walking through the White House grounds while the rest of America was sleeping.
Then my wife gently asked me one more thing:
“We pray for our families. We pray for our health. We pray for our future. But when was the last time America stopped for a moment and prayed for him?”
And honestly… I couldn't find an answer.
So today, I have just one humble request for every American reading this.
Take just one moment out of your day.
Close your eyes.
And offer a small prayer for Donald Trump.
Not about politics.
Not about political parties.
Simply for a man who accepted one of the most challenging responsibilities imaginable when he could have easily chosen a peaceful and comfortable life instead.
God — please watch over Donald Trump.
Give him the strength he needs.
Keep his health protected.
And remind him that millions of Americans recognize and appreciate everything he carries on his shoulders. 🙏😭🇺🇸

America has spent nearly $6 Trillion on illegal aliens and foreign aid in the past 50 years and only $50 Billion on updating critical FAA systems.
The cost of failing to put America First is real.
Insane.
🇮🇹 Giorgia Meloni has hit back at Italy’s left over her tax cut, saying a young hospital doctor earning 55,000 euros a year is not “a rich person to be fleeced” but “the middle class to defend”.
The opposition accuses Rome of cutting taxes for the rich by extending a lower income tax rate up to that level, while proposing a wealth tax. Meloni replied that this doctor studied over ten years, works nights and holidays and takes home about 3,000 euros a month.
A nation that treats its doctors and skilled workers as targets for new taxes punishes the very people who keep it running. “We want to reward merit, work and sacrifices,” Meloni said.
@GovPritzker Obviously, you do not understand the word “bipartisan”. Look it up sometime….or since you are a 1%er, have someone do it for you and educate you.
@Lisa19270487@EAGLELEAK1 Idgaf if someone makes $20 million more than me. IT IS MY JOB TO TAKE CARE OF ME…..NOT THE GOVERNMENT and I ain’t sharing! And, I will willingly help someone in need.
The amount of repulsive Islamophobic abuse posted below this comment is truly shocking, not least because much of it comes from people who regularly rage about anti-Semitism.
