That any of us have to care about the messy breakup of these two massive narcissists — and that they both individually wield such massive power — is an indictment of our political system and further proves the poisonous influence of Big Money on our democracy.

The public meltdown happening between the world’s richest man 🙄 and the President of the United States 🙄🙄 once again begs the age-old question: are men simply too emotional to be in positions of power?

According to AP, the typical pay package for S&P 500 CEOs rose to $17M last year — an increase of 9.7%. At half of the companies surveyed, it would take the median worker 192 years to make what the CEO did in one year. This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

GOP legislatures in Alaska, Nebraska, and Missouri are trying overturn voter-approved referenda requiring paid sick leave. And in 9 other red states, Republican lawmakers are trying to restrict citizen-led ballot measures altogether. The GOP can't stand the will of the people.

An epidemiologist at Columbia had to issue a statement saying the research article RFK Jr. cited with her name is FAKE. It’s not real. The paper itself doesn’t EXIST. Yall this is fascism. FAKE scientific articles used by the government to influence policy is FASCISM. This is horrifying.

These SpaceX failures are being financed by taxpayer dollars. So far, over $7,000,000,000. So this is actual government waste, unlike the alleged waste at Social Security that DOGE was unable to find.

The House Republican budget will balloon our deficits, putting the US on track to borrow even more than before. No matter what they tell you, MAGA is not conservative.

What the U.S. government is doing in relation to public health is so irrational and harmful that it’s almost impossible to process it. They are lying about how vaccines are tested. They are lying about vaccines containing “aborted fetus debris”. This is public health malpractice.

The executive targets his opponents w/bogus investigations. His government disappears people w/out due process and vanishes them beyond reach. He usurps legislative power, controls public funds at will, & consolidates power. Loyalty is expected — or else. Authoritarianism isn’t coming. It’s here.

His words are market manipulation. Markets crash, chaos spreads, and Dictator Donald mocks Americans as “Panicans.” He lies about inflation, doubles down on tariffs, and shreds the economy out of spite. Continued economic terrorism by a delusional thug drunk on power. www.independent.co.u...

The economy is in free fall. The markets are collapsing. Our soldiers are dying. Our sensitive information is being leaked over text message and gmail. Random people are being kidnapped and sent to foreign torture prisons. And Trump is fucking golfing.

The past 3 years there was an explosion in building US manufacturing plants due to loans from the Biden administration. That came to a screeching halt with #TrumpTariffs making it more expensive to complete these plants. So much for buy American. #ProudBlue#Voices4Victory apple.news/AmBW19b-SR9S...

Congress could end the tariffs tomorrow but most members of Congress value their relationship with Trump more than the American economy

Donald “Krasnov” Trump was cultivated as a Russian asset over the course of 40 years and proved so willing to parrot anti-western propaganda that there were celebrations in Moscow, a former KGB spy has told the Guardian. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2021...
