This comment, or a comment like it has been on pretty much every piece of trump/maga/doge news, and has been valid every single time.
Yeah well this “admin” is pretty much the antithesis of the essence and intent of democratic American government, so I guess that tracks.
now we know who's gonna be handling illicit payments and crypto transfers.
What the hell kind of country are we becoming. Without fears of consequences for ruining water and land, the environmental systems that support all life around the world are at risk. Regarding being pardoned for financial crimes, all Americans and anyone who interacts with the American financial system are at risk of losing everything. Becoming debtor slaves or serfs with hardly a dollar to their name.
This is called oligarchy, it's been in the works building up since the days of Prescott Bush and the Business Plot.
I'm about tired of eating cake...
The cake is a lie.

Wow, what an undemocratic shithole. I wonder if he'll preemptively pardon any of his cabinet's companies.
He is just so vile.
Makes me sick. I used to be so hopeful about America moving in the right direction.
Sadly, it's moving in the "right" direction.
When was that?
Obama days.
Go ahead and shit on me that America did terrible things back then, I know. I still believed the democratic party was operating in good faith and we were working towards better things for the people...
Depends on the level. The more power they have, the worse they are
