The Republicans are back...and they are in the mood to spend!

Back in early 2020 when Congress rushed to pass trillions in "emergency" COVID spending, US Rep. Thomas Massie warned that it would be the biggest wealth transfer from the middle class to the elites in history. As DOGE is finding out, Massie was absolutely right. Trillions spent to the benefit of the political classes and crumbs dropping from the t…

President Trump likes to keep everyone on their toes. He has repeatedly proven to say things that (in the end) were perhaps never meant to be taken seriously in the first place. Sometimes the president's statements contain terrible ideas, like the U.S. owning Gaza. But at other times, his statements are pretty incredible, like the U.S. cutting mili…
