Spending too much

I am convinced that our four representatives and two senators do not have a backbone among them. They vote alike, have the same talking points, and I am satisfied they call each other every morning to coordinate their dress for the day.

Meanwhile, our dictator “want to be” president is spending our country into bankruptcy. Millions for his golf outings, millions to take all his family on overseas trips, millions for his July Fourth celebration so that he can emulate his heroes, Putin, Kim, and Xi.

The billions we are spending, $750 per day for each detainee, on concentration camps in Florida and along the southern border. The company the government contracted with is a private hedge fund in Washington, D.C., directed by Gen. John Kelly, Richard Armitage, and other ex-Trump administrators. The parent firm is D.C. Capital/Caliburn, and the company running the camps is Comprehensive Health Services. General Kelly was a lobbyist for the firm, and the thing is we are borrowing money to fund this operation or taking it from other agencies to do this.

Where is the indignation and outrage? If this was a Democratic administration, they would be squealing like a pig under a gate. Unfortunately it seems the editorial writers of this newspaper are not much more than shameless shills for this administration. Hopefully this nightmare will end next year, if we have anything left.
