I do not know Alex Schiller, but I follow him at Facebook.
He refers to himself as a professional window cleaner and an accidental writer.
He recently posted this list of questions. Because I have the same questions, and guessing that many of you do as well, I have "borrowed" them to share here. I hope Mr. Schiller doesn't mind.
They're legitimate questions and we need to be asking them. AND, we deserve answers.
Where are the homeless people who got rounded up in DC? Why are we spending more to do that than it costs to shelter them?
Why did Putin arrive to Trump waiting on the tarmac and soldiers kneeling to roll out a red carpet, while European leaders and Zelensky were met by a Deputy Secretary of State?

Why is there a gift shop in the White House? Why does it sell Trump 2028 hats?
With the OBBB and DOGE and tariffs all in place, why did our deficit for July run in the hundreds of millions, and why was it higher than a year ago?
Why is Texas "entitled" to redistricting by single-party mandate, but California is "anti democracy" for letting voters decide if they want to redistrict?
Why can Trump call federal law enforcement into Capitol Hill to deal with homelessness and crime 10 miles away, but he couldn't call them on January 6th?

If illegal immigration is the problem, why are people being snatched from court appointments?
Why was Ghislaine Maxwell moved to a country club prison and put on work release?
Why have my groceries, homeowners insurance, utilities, and student loans all gone up while I'm being told we're the hottest country in the world and our economy has never been better?
How am I supposed to trust the guy responsible for the nation's health when he thinks cutting disease and vaccine research is a good idea, while celebrating putting real sugar in soda, banning a color, and seeming not to understand that Riboflavin is a vitamin and not a dangerous chemical?
Don't we need FEMA?
Should the Secretary of Education know the difference between Artificial Intelligence and steak sauce? I feel like she should.
Why are we spending a billion tax dollars to retrofit a plane that Trump gets to keep when he leaves office?
How does painting a fence black for a half billion dollars make it too hot to climb at night, and if all the paint peeled off when they did it in 2019, how is it gonna stay on there now?
What are they going to do with the deportation camps when they run out of deportees?
Did it seem weird to you when the President named himself director of the Kennedy Center, then invited himself to host, then took time to consider whether he would be available, then accepted, then thanked himself for the honor of having asked himself? Seems weird.
If I get approached in my vehicle by screaming men wielding rifles and wearing masks who refuse to identify themselves, do Castle Doctrine laws still apply? I'm in Florida.
What kind of training are those guys getting anyway? Is there like a civil rights cartoon they have to watch, or is it all just mountain dew and cash bounties?
How long does someone need to be in charge before they have to stop blaming everyone else for their own bad policies, poor optics, and incompetence?

What about giving a $19 billion bailout to farmers after tariffs and immigration raids devastated their revenue? Socialism or no?
Who's making all those 9-figure swing trades hours before unscheduled tariff announcements?
Why have so many people connected to the White House Crypto Dinner received pardons or had investigations dropped?
Why does everyone pretend that Clinton, Obama and Biden weren't the only 3 presidents in history to reduce the federal deficit?
If Project 2025 wasn't associated with Trump, why are the Director of OMB, Sr. Counselor on Trade and Manufacturing, FCC Chair and General Counsel, CIA Director, Border Czar, and Press Secretary all listed as authors and contributors?
I have more questions, but these seem like a good start.
