"nycmayor: We're spending at least $500 million a day to bomb Iran
Imagine how many teachers we could hire, how many public housing units we could build, how many bridges and roads we could fix, if we spent that kind of money on improving life for working people?"
Such a fool. Dont mess with Elizabeth Banks!
Doge covered up election tampering and Elon's crimes so Trump, as president, could cover up his own financial crimes, so they both could cover up the Epstein Files and coverup Trump raping and killing children.
