@Nonilex Instead of these endless articles about funding cuts, program cancellations, and staff eliminations for hundreds of government funded programs, let’s get to the root of the issue.

I’m guessing the only programs that are left consist of graft, corruption, or the infliction of pain and suffering of everyone other than himself and his billionaire buddies.
