There's no punishment too "cruel and unusual" for these criminal clowns! I hope your post and this open letter get shared widely and reach the eyes of good people with real power. As you noted, power without accountability is a cancer that will destroy entire civilizations if not contained quickly, and our civilization is now in stage four of this cancer. But more people are waking up and losing their reluctance to call things out, especially as the symptoms of this cancer grow more obvious and more alarming, so the COVID criminals may get their accountability sooner than later.
Well said. The only quibble is that the DoD is possibly not unparalleled in budget: in 2022 defense spending came in behind Social Security, non-defense discretionary spending, and only a little ahead of Medicare/Medicaid spending (well, ok around 4 billion ahead, but that is <1%, so little but not little :D ). I am totally willing to believe that the accounting is off by a fair bit and there is DoD spending that isn't categorized as defense, but sadly the defense budget is much smaller than Social Security. Imagine how much graft happens over in that realm.
Thanks! I'll edit to make that more accurate. The true scale and scope of the waste, fraud, and abuse perpetrated by the USG is literally unfathomable. Our minds are simply not equipped to behold it. The tiny slice I've been exposed to directly is overwhelming, so Social Security? I really can't image.
The link is good now, but when I attempt to sign it errors on the entry of my email with this message: Invalid input. Please only use letters, digits, whitespace, and periods.
Probably getting kicked because of the @ in the address. I'll pass that along, I know the character limitations were imposed to counteract malicious spam, but if there's a place for email they'll obviously need to allow the @ character. Thanks!
Yep! I even tried omitting my email totally AND using a white-space instead of the @... didn't like either one of those either... I'll check back later... again! ;-)
There's also a 30 character limit. Supposedly getting upped to 50, that might be the issue. Obviously this all should've been sorted ahead of time but the website was a last minute idea

Clicking on the link " signing the petition." creates a "502 Bad Gateway" error... Just a heads up.
Its undergoing a cyber attack. Should be back up within an hour.

Finally! My signature has been recorded. Thank you!
Given the issue at hand, it's well worth the trouble... I'm happy to serve as a tester.
Thank you! I'll check back.
