This isn't about policy; it's about power. A cabinet secretary's casual suggestion to replace deported farm-workers with able-bodied Medicaid recipients is a chilling glimpse into a heartless agenda. This isn't just incompetence; it's cruelty dressed up as a solution. They expect the poor to pick up the slack created by their own inhumane policies. It's a sick joke, and it's a blatant disregard for human dignity.
But it's not just about cheap labor. It's about dismantling the social safety net, brick by brick. Christian nationalists are using their influence to exploit loopholes and undermine the Johnson Amendment. They're trying to transform churches into political action committees, blurring the lines between faith and fascism.
Pastor Ralph Drollinger, the so-called spiritual advisor to Congress, is preaching a gospel of poverty as punishment. His twisted interpretation of scripture justifies starving the poor to line the pockets of the wealthy.
And who benefits from this? The rich, of course. Tax cuts for the wealthy are their holy grail, even if it means sacrificing the vulnerable to the altar of greed. They're betting that you'll be too distracted by culture wars to notice them looting the treasury. They're selling you a snake oil solution to a problem they created. Don't fall for it. This isn't about economics; it's about a systematic dismantling of compassion and justice. It's time to fight back before it's too late.
