In the last 18 months, Congress has given DHS $240 billion — a quarter of a trillion.
When I say “2024 was the best year to live in America” I am not saying “things get better always.” What I am saying is that bad times are caused by crises and crashes. They come from specific disasters, with specific causes, not decline. Our disaster came at the end of 2024.

BREAKING: The House passes a $70 billion bill to fund immigration enforcement for three years, sending the measure to President Trump.
there's no way to parody this
House Republicans have passed a nearly $70 billion bill to fund immigration enforcement agencies for the next three years and the rest of President Donald Trump's term in office.
Truly one the most spectacular instance of government waste in human history. Dumping hundreds of billions of dollars into a wildly unpopular agency best known for its nonstop domestic terror tactics.

It’s awful to watch Trump annihilate so many national symbols like the White House and reflecting pool, but I think it’s a solvable problem. Start planning a National Restoration Act that dumps some tens of billions into rebuilding DC and undoing acts of executive vandalism
What was the best year to live in America, in your estimation? It's easy to find problems in any era. Which would you have preferred, specifically?
You can pick pre-Trump, but fascism is still rising and the economy was pretty bad. You can be pick pre-Obama, but let me tell you the 9/11 years weren’t so great on the politics thing. You can pick pre-Bush, but have fun with terrible health care and much reduced material standard of living.
It’s a situation where, politically, I think you’d actually rather do it in one big expensive bill rather than bit by bit, because debate over the bill becomes a proxy fight about the amount of harm Trump caused, and you can highlight his megalomania as deeply anti-American
