I've been trying to determine how to thread out the absurdity of Trump's announcement about moving Space Command from CO to AL. @charlotteclymer.bsky.social to the rescue. We are more vulnerable, less ready, & at the continued mercy of a drifting partisan who will always put himself before you.

Since Reagan’s policies took hold, the wealth gap widened significantly. Money was drained from rural towns and many of those towns are suffering near collapse. I don’t know why it’s so hard to understand and elect politicians that will tax the wealthy and reinvest in rural economies.
