Remember 9/11. Never forget, right?
This is where the creation of a department to “secure” our “homeland”, and laws like the “patriot” act where always going to lead. This is where selling off your rights and freedoms for a false sense of security was always going to lead.
Don’t worry, it’ll get much worse.

But they’re making us safer Jo! Don’t you know that when the TSA scans your genitalia when you fly to grandmas is making us all safer. What do you want? You want the terrorists to win?

My firm helps keep a good percentage of this country’s shitty infrastructure from collapsing and the budgets these projects are working under are laughable. But that’s ok. I sleep better at night knowing we’re spending all our money on Palantir instead.

Look, if we fix the bridges, roads, ATC towers, staff them, nationalize the toll roads, inspect the gas pipelines, replace the lead pipes, reform the corn subsidies, schools, fire stations, rural hospitals, nursing shortage, elder care, vaccine crisis, citizens united, dark money, and pedophile ring then what will the Democrats run on next year huh?

Modernizing the electric grid and fast tracking the development and adoption of sources of clean energy?
