As it does me, then we must all vote, and EVERY VOTE AGED democrats must participate in the up coming 2026 election. The way to stop this is to defund this. The house controls the budget and monetary aspect of this country. This is why trump is getting away with all the tariff and budget cuts, because the house / senate are all right wing controlled. Cut the funding, don’t pay them, then they are just radical thugs, which can then be arrested, or even confronted by Good Samaritans.
