    They actually had the gonads to say that and use that gobbledygook as an excuse to take the money. Why should a non-profit take funds as opposed to relying upon their usual donors? This is so degenerate on so many levels. Good goin' Libertarians with your grubby hands out for taxpayer's money. Very anti-government dependent of you.

    Privatize the Profits/Socialize the Losses

    In 2008 the treasury was robbed and they just did it again.

    Maybe they were the token non-liberal organization to get free money. Liberals still lead one billion to one.

    I mean, didn't the guy in the Fountain head work in the mines because he ran out of money and then clawed his way back to the top? Are you telling me they couldn't do that?

    a communist country attacked America with the kung flu, capitalists are getting small refunds on business that was stolen from them.

    this is nothing like reparations for slavery, it happened in this lifetime.

    That is hypocrisy on steroids, just like the Donald's administration.

    She was a fascinating, brilliant, tragic, contradictory character alright.

    Weird how you didn't have squat to say about this:

    OLD AND BUSTED: Fight the Power.

    The New Hotness? Guns N’ Roses, Pearl Jam, the Eagles, Green Day Among Bands Who Have Received PPP Loans.

    Madeleine Albright’s Consulting Firm Took Millions in Coronavirus Relief Funding, Records Show: The Albright Stonebridge Group has deep ties to China, employs former Chinese gov’t officials. Collusion.

    And oddly enough, you didn't say squat.

    Churches mosques synagogs, places that pay zero in taxes and indirectly direct their congregations to vote in a specific way, also received hundreds of millions in taxpayer funds.

    This was nothing more than a very public looting of taxpayer dollars.

    But the people of this nation, the ones laid off from their jobs and unable to feed their families, getting $600 a week is where the line is drawn.

    That is why only when people take to the streets such as over the murder of George Floyd do the corrupt powers that be begin crapping their pants. The people need to take the fight to them directly and many are...
    We need to get rid of the stranglehold the two party system has on the nation. People better wake up and join forces because they are killing us for their pockets and those of their donors.
