The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Sen. John Kennedy says he’d exclude Jan. 6 rioters from an anti-weaponization fund bill

Sen. John Kennedy, R-La., told NBC News’ “Meet the Press” Sunday that he would not provide the Trump administration with a “blank check” for the proposed “anti-weaponization” fund and that rioters who stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, should not be allowed to benefit from it.

That fund was never about the Jan 6 rioters. The rioters were expendable Prole meat that Trump used to advance his own interests, like any other "JC" would. The money will go to Trump's inner circle. Of course, the most victimized person in the history of the world is Trump himself, so I expect him to be pushing himself to the head of the line.
