24. It is ultimately all about the theft and corruption.

This isn't about ideology. It is not about loyalty to trump. It is about corruption and greed on a scale that is so, so, so far beyond the stealing that is already public knowledge

I don't think we have even scratched the surface on the magnitude of the theft of public dollars. They have us too overwhelmed with multiple other horrors every day. This is about amassing power for one reason and we need to be FAR more vigilant on uncovering their theft.

As Oliver Kornetzke points out, it is all about power as a means to steal more...

...Trump, a failed businessman and serial conman, didn’t stumble into power because he had a vision. He stumbled into it like a raccoon into a jewelry store: overwhelmed, opportunistic, and desperate to grab everything shiny before the lights come on. He brought with him a gang of similarly hollow, self-serving goons—parasites in flag pins—who recognized that brute force and spectacle could serve as a perfect cover for mass-scale corruption. All they needed was enough boots, enough masks, and enough Americans too scared or too exhausted to resist...

That’s what ICE is now—a terror squad designed not just to punish the “other,” but to frighten the rest into submission. They don’t need to knock on your door. They just need you to see what happens when they knock on hers. They want you disoriented, enraged, heartbroken, and above all—silent.

Raiding our treasury was what the horrific and massive transfer of wealth in the reconciliation package was about. They shoved that down the throats of the minority party, even though they knew they could not implement the spending cuts without Democratic votes on a budget before 10/1.

And they didn't care.

They believed they could shove the most unpopular cuts in my memory down the throats of the American people when the time came. And if they couldn't, all good. They would just use the shutdown to complete the decimation of the executive branch and in the chaos, they'd have ever greater opportunities for increasingly massive corruption and theft.
