Almost every government in the world is 10x to 1000x stronger than all of its criminals combined.

The reason they don’t end crime is because they are colluded with it, or because they benefit from it.

You pick the reason.

Freddie Mac backed $800 million in interest-only, balloon-payment loans to Jared Kushner in 2019 after his sister lobbied the agency Qatar may have been involved in a Canadian co’s 2018 “rescue” of Kushner’s $1.1 billion debt on 666 5th Ave.

Saudi Arabia bans industrial scale farming of alfalfa, to protect its limited water supplies.
So they grow it in a US desert and ship it back home, using AZ’s scarce water. Lax rules let the foreign-owned company pump water from state land to grow alfalfa for the kingdom’s cattle. After almost a decade, the deal is in jeopardy. READ MORE

Dad died when I was 12.  Mom struggled. We received dad’s social security survivor benefits. They helped make ends meet… barely. But just a few years later, Reagan happened.

In 1981, to pay for his massive tax cuts for the rich, he cut social security benefits while increasing payroll taxes on working people. But it wasn’t just me and mom. Millions were hurt.

He swept over 300,000 people off disability rolls. Tens of thousands died or committed suicide. He promised that benefits from cutting taxes on those that didn’t need it would “trickle down” only to see deficits skyrocket, which Republicans use to blame Democrats and as an excuse to cut programs that helped the vulnerable.

But that was the plan. “Starve the Beast” they said.

Republicans continue to fight to cut Social Security, Medicare, public education, head start, food stamps, and other programs average working Americans need.

Cruelty is always @GOP’s point.

Profits over people.

Party over country.
