Be of good cheer! Draining the swamp is like eating an elephant - you accomplish it one bite at a time. It's necessary to realize that it will take much longer than 4 years and prepare for the next couple of elections (at least - maybe more) to insure we have a MAGA-type person at the top of the ticket. The corruption is endemic to any large bureaucracy - the stated aim of cutting costs and reducing the size of government will go a long way towards making the swamp dry, arable land.

So...much...swamp. Will this be unravelled? Seems like a Herculean task, hampered by the fact of "honest politician" being an oxymoron.

Ok, I can’t spell Eric Swalowels name correctly. From now on I will refer to him as “Fang Fang’s Bitch.”

On the up side, without the USAID graft the Democrat party is feeling a money pinch. It would be nice to have the Dems introduce more self destruction into their already poor popularity with the American public. #ImpeachTrumpNow is already trending on X/Twitter and mouthpieces like Eric Swalowel and Bernie Sanders are on record as being against a president bombing a country that chants “Death to America.” Where were these guys when O Bo zo was droning the shit out of the mid east and smoking American citizens without congressional approval?

Treat it as treason, a capital offense. I don't see this as mere graft, greed and grifting. The pattern is that it is a wanton destruction of our country. Let a judge and jury mete out justice.

I'm starting to feel like the only way to drain it, starts with burning down all the vegetation, to get rid of the roots that are keeping the muck in.

I’m with you on that one-the cancer is so pervasive and so deep I don’t know if it can be cured and save the body
