Voted yes. To be clear, it’s not specifically for J6 rioters. There are probably others who have been adversely affected by the federal government and deserve compensation. But I have zero confidence that it will be administered well.

And J6 rioters are yuge, yuge losers.
We already have an appeals system for those who were falsely prosecuted of crimes. Why do we need a slush fund?

Given that my tax dollars have been spent on this scam, the Iran war scam, the ICE scam, a totally incompetent FBI, and countless other scams, does that mean I can apply and be compensated for all the corruption of our tax dollars?

Get in line. I want to be reimbursed for nonsensical spending on entitlements, illegals, fraud and a giant pile of other government waste.

That’s because DOGE was the equivalent of burning your house to the ground when the goal is to clean out your garage.
Are you saying there is only a garage full of stupid spending? I would disagree. Look at the things DOGE cut. All the DEI stuff was stupid spending and it's done. All the USAID stuff was stupid spending, all the fraudulent hospice money was stupid.

If we are going to get rid of stupid spending let's get rid of all of it. It seems like you want to keep your pet projects though.

Pet projects like keeping children from dying of AIDS? Stopping ebola from spreading again? Those things are simply "pet projects"??

Don't forget buying votes through student loan debt relief.

What makes you think I have any pet projects?

In case it's not clear to everyone yet, Trump is going to distribute this money to the Insurrectionists so they can do it again with $2B this time. January 2027.
