I've seen this come up a few times here and on pdw and the comments are all "the optics aren't great, etc..." Honestly I think the thing people are overlooking is, I'd rather someone grift off a name instead of funding retarded fake wars to launder my money back to them in the name of "peace". At least people have the opportunity to choose to give them money as opposed to the Aid packages we're handing out like mentos
Exactly. 'It looks bad' - but people get to choose to participate or not.
Anyone that criticizes it, and everyone on the left will - gets to STFU until such time as you even START to complain about every SINGLE Democrat stealing taxpayer money directly by having family members and friends getting USAID money for decades through shady NGOs they run. not even bothering to start an actual business people can join in on. Or insider stock trades getting congress rich. Or the utterly corrupt system of 'lobbying' and bribes going on forever. Every congress person and senator who mysteriously becomes a millionaire after getting elected, or worth 10s or even hundreds of millions needs to be in jail.
Stop all that, and arrest everyone involved - THEN you get to complain about the optics of Trump family starting a business that you can freely join or not join. (and then still get told to buzz off anyway)
Well the overwhelming majority of conservatives want all the USAID theft to the stop but the Big Beautiful Bill didn't really do much to stop it right? Instead we get trillions more in deficit spending.
Most of what you said is accepted by the Left and the Right. No one wants insider trading, we all want term limits, we all want to end lobbying especially by AIPAC. It's just people in government who are beholden to Israel that continue to ignore the will of the American people.
Unfortunately DOGEs mission was unsuccessful because the policy makers didn't act on the info that was found.
Disagree. The left does not accept wanting cuts to corruption. They are all knowing taking money through corrupt mechanisms. They 'win' elections through corrupt mechanisms. They steal, and then cheer on others stealing. The very foundation of leftism is theft - take what others have created through actual effort.
There is trillion of dollars of theft going on, but they are going to scream corruption because Don Jr started a company.
You didn't read what I wrote right? People, citizens on the left - not politicians. Believe it or not as time goes on the right and the left are starting to overlap on critical issues. You have people like Cenk and Tucker agreeing on a lot of policies now.
Yeah, there's trillions of dollars of theft and the BBB just stole trillions more from the tax payers.

Wrong. You can't put the cuts in the BBB because it can't be in a continuation bill.
They do however have DOGE cuts in new bill they introduced.
Can you show me where it says you can't have cuts in a continuation bill? I'd like to see that for myself
