The biggest of the tiny inadequate fingers thus far is the highly illegal glacial pace of the EPSTEIN! EPSTEIN! EPSTEIN! Files release.

I am retired. I get sporadic (and VERY SMALL) amounts of cash from my former clients for Website maintenance work. LAST YEAR, my accountant said my yearly "income" was so small that I didn't need to file taxes.

I told him "do it anyway" because the "relationship" I want with the IRS is to pay them what they think I owe them annually and then GO AWAY FOR THE NEXT 365 DAYS.

I don't WANT a "relationship" with the IRS beyond that, so I dot every "T" and cross every "T." I have paid taxes, even with tiny income. And knowing it's being spent for that fat-assed toddler's playtime enrages me.

I get you about the squandering of millions, nay, BILLIONS of tax dollars thrown away on vanity projects that serve no purpose except to try to fill the hateful emptiness inside the hollow colicky homicidal pedastric man-child. (and his co-conspirators) It’s also the billions of dollars thrown away in an attempt to create an illusion that he is more than the sum of his dog shit parts.

Yet, he is currently trying to keep those Americans who pay taxes and live in the so-called blue areas from receiving the benefits they have paid so dearly for.

Didn't Noem blow through her budget last June? For all the morons who wanted to run the country like a business, they could have at least picked a successful one! Apparently six bankruptcies wasn't enough of a qualifier, they liked the 34 felony counts, too. JFC, I cannot believe the rabbit hole we've fallen into.

Whenever he plays at a property he owns, he's paying himself out of our treasury. And charging a price that ge basically makes up himself. And charging for his entire entourage.

He probably golfs any day there's a vacant room at his hotel, and brings as many secret service people as needed to fill up the hotel.

Unbelievable scumbag.

Republicans have zero credibility when it comes to scandals, they can't even hold him accountable for obvious crap like this.
