President Donald Trump is proposing draconian cuts to international humanitarian aid, human services, to public media, and aid to low-income Americans. I thought the reason for cutting international humanitarian aid was to better use that money for Americans in need. But we are cutting funding from Americans too. I thought the reason for cutting so much “waste” was so we could take the burden of high taxes off American taxpayers. But if the military is going to get 13% more funding than there is zero overall savings to give back to Americans. I thought we were moving out of Ukraine to save money for American taxpayers. Yet the military is getting so much more money. So I just do not get it. Please explain to me MAGA, what is the point?
