BREAKING: Palestinian activist and Columbia University student Mohsen Mahdawi walks out of ICE detention after a Vermont judge ordered his release. "I am saying it clear and loud to President Trump and his Cabinet: I am not afraid of you," he said.

This is the way.

Casar: "I think any other country looking at us goes, 'Oh my god, what happened to America? How are these billionaires allowed to have such enormous conflicts of interest while they run the government?'"

So you’re saying we could solve all the financial problems of 379 million of us and impact just 19 households. What an interesting fact. Fun little bit of trivia.

The richest 0.1% of Americans control $22 trillion in wealth. The bottom 50% control $3.8 trillion in wealth. Read that back. Folks, this is what oligarchy looks like.
