There are two major things that The Orange Man is good at (!) .  The first is going bankrupt. He has filed for that SIX times, including for a Casino !  The second thing he excels at is spending other people’s money, which at present, he’s blowing through YOURS AND MINE at an alarming rate.   As he is completely unable to pass any lie detector, we thought we should share with you where he is spending BUT equally important WHO is paying the real cost    

Cost to the US for Trump’s War in Iran so far $37.9 BILLION. Info Source is Hesgeth, Secretary of War 

Hesgeth’s Request of the Senate for more War Funds (this week)  $141 Billion

The money Trump has made during this 2nd presidency (so far)  $1.4 Billion

Cost of Unauthorised White House Ballroom $1.4 Billion

Reflecting Pool Renovations. $16 million

The 250-foot-tall “Independence Arch”   $100 million

Eisenhower Executive Office Building: $7.5 Million

National Garden Of American Heroes: $40 Million

Paving over the Rose Garden: $1.9 Million

And where did all these funds come from? Well, for starters, BY STOPPING PROJECTS THAT SAVED AND IMPROVED LIVES although they total so little compared with just one of his expensive projects

1) Trump ends care network for LGBTQ+ veterans.  The nationwide rollback ends specialized calls, training, and shared resources while leaving other population-specific programs intact. The July 22 message shows the VA carrying out a broader directive issued last month to eliminate programs and positions focused on gender identity. It also contradicts assurances that employees said they received after the initial order that little would change beyond their job titles

2) Trump ended the LGBTQ+ youth suicide lifeline that supported more than 1.5 million LGBTQ+ youth in crisis. One year later, the damage remains.  The reality was that our nation’s leadership — the very agency charged with protecting the health and well-being of Americans — ripped life-saving services away from young people in crisis.  That was hard to grapple with, to say the least.

3) 1,700 H.I.V. Treatment Sites Closed After Trump Aid Cuts, a Study Finds  New research also shows that children and high-risk adult populations have been particularly affected.

4) Since January 2025, the Trump administration has undertaken a sweeping and ideologically driven rollback of human rights protections, with particularly grave consequences for sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) globally. The administration has drastically cut funding to international health programs, withdrawn from key multilateral institutions and agreements, and advanced an agenda that is overtly opposed to human rights, particularly those advancing gender and reproductive autonomy. These actions not only threaten access to essential health services for millions of people—particularly in low- and middle-income countries—but also undermine international cooperation and accountability in advancing the rights and health of women, girls and marginalized communities.

5) On day one of this administration, Trump signed EO 14183, titled “Prioritizing Military Excellence and Readiness,” to remove all trans people serving – leaving tens of thousands of active-duty service members, veterans, and members of military families in fear and uncertainty about their jobs, their healthcare, and their future

6) He ended all public funding  for PBS and NPR, putting rural stations at risk at the same time, threatened this vital source of journalism, and at the same time established the right-wing Religious Liberty Commission  “to bring back religion into the White House” (sic) 

These are just a few of the projects he has axed: one of the things that irks him is people who are good for mankind …..and the real price will be counted in the loss of lives around the globe and the people who will suffer so badly because of his unchecked sheer greed.
