    There is a ton of personal corruption from campaign donors.

    Trump takes it to another level, for sure, but this is all a direct result of Citizens United and money in politics.

    Never had a candidate before him been so blatant about funneling campaign funds for themselves. Maybe George Santos. But, he is in prison.

    Not to mention Trump has "donors" paying him off via donations as well as through his businesses.

    Many of our politicians make literally hundreds of millions of dollars from donors and corporations. Legally. Incredibly corrupt and legal.

    Donald Trump (or similar) was always the end game if we didn't change those policies. You can't let the obvious corruption go and expect everyone to want to stay engaged. If much of the population is disengaged because they see the corruption isn't being addressed you get Donald Trump.

    Trump ended protection for children, pregnant women, seniors and sick and disabled people in custody of Customs and Border Patrol. CBP will no longer have to provide water, medication, other needs for scary brown people.

    Ye, formerly Kanye West, has a new song titled Heil Hitler. It has been blocked from Spotify, YouTube and other platforms, but not Xitter, where it has racked up millions of views. Ye also posted a video of rapist Andrew Tait playing it.

    Tell me again how Columbia University is responsible for anti-Semitism.

    Looks like we're banning Versace now.

    Two rock bottoms today.

    Starting pitcher for Houston Astros had bad game against Cincinnati. It happens. Fans get upset. But so called fans are calling him with death threats against his children.

    Next rock bottom.
    Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms had wall mural consisting of photos of children who died by gun violence. They removed it without warning. Father of one of the dead girls depicted contacted them. He was told mural was removed to avoid upsetting Second Amendment supporters. Killing children OK, hurting gun nuts feefees not.

    The country's largest sexual assault hotline will no longer refer callers to organizations that specifically aid LGBTQ or immigrant victims of sexual assault. They have been told they will lose federal funding if they continue to aid all callers.

    Only straight native born rape victims, please.

    Ben and Jerry don’t own the ice cream brand anymore; they sold it off years ago.
