Alumni of scandal-ridden Trump administration head up new 'research institute'

By Oliver Willis -April 14, 2021 1:10 PM

America First Policy Institute reportedly has a $20 million budget to promote the policies of Donald Trump.

On April 13, Axios reported the launch of America First Policy Institute, a nonprofit self-described "research institute" with a $20 million budget and a roster of staffers drawn from among figures involved in scandal after scandal during Donald Trump's one term in the White House.

Axios said that the organization's mission is to continue and spread Trump's policies.

A list of the right wing fascists' that supports a POS insurrectionists that wanted to take down a duly elected government. And they have twenty million dollars in the coffers.....maybe its time to revisit these so called "research institutes" IRS status.....

when will mobsters get swooped up on Rico charges?

how much longer we will withstand this onslaught of harm and grave damage to our democracy?

Once the damage is completed, will it ever be possible to overcome, repair and restore?

Or do we continue existing in a never ending cycle of authoritarian/religious cult grifters, thugs and oligarchy rule, with periodic reprieve, i.e. 2 year periods of sanity and decency?

as well as seeing the crap that djt did while in office (basically nothing except dismantle and I suspect point govt money towards djt's buddies (w/ a kickback to djt in some hidden manner, it's easy to hide it))...I don't have any particular proof, it's just a mind thought of mind when you see the other crap (staying at his golf resorts at govt expense, etc.). A lot of giant contracts got let/or $ given away w/ no avail. public oversight, e.g., they hid the ones who rec'd such funds until a certain amount of time went by, I forget what the time interval was.
