"projecting US strength abroad" ?!?!?
FFS, how about feeding Americans at home?
"projecting strength abroad" is shorthand for playing dirty politics abroad, with US taxpayer funds, to protect corporate interests.
Why are we sending aid abroad? There are people right here in America who could use that aid.
If American people could make the national budget together, hands-on, without conniving politicians to distract us and siphon money, would we still choose to send money abroad? To play goody two shoes? When we are not all fed, housed, educated? When healthcare is too expensive?
Charity begins at home. Sending aid abroad is a view held by the privileged class, who have no idea what hunger and poverty in America is like.
I was involuntarily made homeless in 2023, for being a whistleblower against Accenture Federal Services and the US Department of Veterans Affairs, under Biden.
Biden is corrupt!

Here are my host parents and the other teen they were hosting. The three are posing in front of a brick building somewhere in Tasmania. The photo is from June, July, or August 1990.
At the time they lived in South Preston and worked in Ulverstone. Asuka and I attended school at Don College in Devonport.
We also visited Launceston, Ross, Richmond, and parts of Hobart. But I can't recall where this place is/was or why it was important enough to have a sign or for me to photograph it.
Please, if you recognize this place and can tell me where and what it is/was, leave a comment.
Thank you!
