"How much do the taxpayers have to pay for a fascist country?”

Yes. A question from a woman at a townhall meeting in Nebraska yesterday. It was a very good question. Totally on-point. "How much do the taxpayers have to pay for a fascist country?”

From Heather Cox Richardson this morning:

"Members of the House of Representatives are back in their districts for August, and on Monday, Republican Mike Flood of Nebraska held a town hall in Lincoln. A woman asked what she called a fiscal question.

She said: “With 450 million FEMA dollars being reallocated to open Alligator Alcatraz, and 600 million taxpayer FEMA dollars being used to now open more concentration camps, and ICE burning through $8.4 million a day to illegally detain people—How much does it cost for fascism? How much do the taxpayers have to pay for a fascist country?”

The crowd cheered wildly.
