I heard on the news today that FOCUS HOPE has been forced

to shut down the Head Start program in four Detroit zip codes after they lost federal funding. Ain't that some shit? On the same day that we hear JD Vance gloating that Disneyland was closed to the public and although other people got longer lines, he and his family had a very good time.

Anybody else as disgusted about this as I am?

Please let me know if this is the wrong forum. I'm still not very clear on the forum thing.

while he cuts our healthcare, social security, science research etc etc. Using his office for total personal gain while taking everything from the rest of us.
