Desperate measures in desperate times

IN these trying times, and amid Trump’s questionable and unethical behavior, American voters never expected to lose their jobs or to green-light the President’s dismantling of the Constitution, along with the rules and protocols that protect the U.S. and its global interests.

 Trump’s activities are abusive and destructive.

When Elon Musk brandished his chainsaw in front of the American public, it was not only an abuse of influence, but also an extremist display on the world stage.

I don’t want the world to look at us Americans as bullies. We want to be seen as a country of golden opportunities.

It is also troubling that America’s homelessness crisis continues.

However, it was America’s humanitarian and life-saving safety network that was attacked and targeted by the despicable and reprehensible Elon Musk. This affected many children around the world who need U.S. assistance, especially medicines and food.

The blowback was alarming. America’s reputation and credibility around the world were tarnished.

You don’t want to be Elon Musk right now because even his own Tesla company might kick him out and look for a more commonsensical and compassionate leader.

While I understand the need to fight waste, fraud, and corruption, that doesn’t mean we should fire the watchdogs in place — such as inspectors general — or dismantle the guardrails designed to protect the American people and U.S. investments abroad. Moreover, firing federal employees could lead to increased homelessness.

While Americans struggle to rebuild their lives in the wake of numerous natural disasters, the President should use his executive authority to ease their suffering and ensure they receive the basic relief they deserve.

Instead, we’re learning about the $400 billion given to Musk, Trump and his family. This is not right. This is not who we are as Americans. I will fight for my U.S. families.

In closing, I will not conform to all these reprehensible, outrageous and ridiculous extremist ideologies. As a U.S. humanitarian journalist of the U.S.-Indo Pacific, I want a stable and peaceful economy as well as commonsense diplomatic solutions that will help our U.S. and CNMI families get the humanitarian services they desperately need.

Sincerely,

JOAQUIN O. ROMOLOR
