with Trump, Stephen Miller, and Musk taking turns at cosplaying Mob Boss. This is absolutely the most corrupt government I've ever seen or read about. I mean, I've read some really horrifying stuff from some of the crappiest 3rd world countries, and we're not only right up there with them in both spirit and action, in most cases we're surpassing them in evil deeds. Blows my mind how quickly we got to base level evil.
