When a few of us divide all of us into 'winners' and 'losers,' the number of losers increases exponentially.
We have a democracy. Everyone can vote. But if majority rules, there should be FAR more winners. Yet the opposite is true.
We have a democracy in name only.

Musk might be useful in his fight against 47, but remember he acts in HIS best interest, not ours.
And while I like the thought behind your screen name, the budget bill includes a line that gives 47 the right to ignore court contempt orders - he will declare a BS 'emergency' and end the 2026 vote!

As if it wasn't perfectly obvious to anyone with a functioning brain that this was ALWAYS going to be a SPECTACULARLY HUGE logistical nightmare, and a SPECTACULARLY HUGE cost to the federal government to implement.
AND an enormous hit to our economy. Immigrants are consumers, workers and taxpayers!

Seems familiar? It's just today's version of the same old lame 'trickle-down economics' that has been proven false EVERY TIME the GOP runs this scam.
GOP voters fall for it EVERY TIME because they can't believe anything other than what they want to believe.
The dumbest of us will be the end of us.

When 47 was 45, he had the same commanding position to "fix" immigration, and lots of other stuff, as he had promised.
Instead he turned his first term into a clown show.
Now is no different, except it's a FAR more evil clown show.
And the lies are even more stupid.

The SCOTUS will resist this, which only underscores the extreme necessity that it pass.
They will cite arcane references that justify their position, while blowing past the obvious intent of the Founders that EACH BRANCH HAS CHECKS AND BALANCES WITH REGARD TO THE OTHERS.

If anyone thinks this might be a contractual minefield, there is PLENTY of evidence that the US is an unreliable partner, and could not be trusted to uphold any amended agreements to keep the games in the US.
There are likely several countries that could hit the ground running and be ready for '28.

These are the citizens who today's leaders are working hardest to crush.
This is the history that today's anti-DEI narrative is trying so desperately to erase.
Today's GOP leadership is the embodiment of evil. And yet, so-called 'evangelicals' are their biggest boosters.
How did we get here?

It's been suggested that THE POINT is to bankrupt these gomers. Vance funded AcreTrader, a website that facilitates farm sales.
Crater the values, force quick selloffs, and the billionaires swoop in to buy prime farmland for pennies per dollar.
47 isn't governing. He's raping the little guy.

Clear, compelling words whose self-evident truth is unassailable.
There can be no response to such words from cons that don't instantly reveal them to be the assholes that they are. So they write her off as a radical leftist.
Truth is not radical, it's essential. It's not partisan, it's REALITY.

Because we are nearing the end of the Robber Barons 2.0 Era. The last one ended in the worst global depression EVER. This one might very well end in a global revolution that will make the French Revolution look like a tea party.
Massive wealth breeds massive hubris.
EAT THE RICH!

Yes. "TDS" can either mean Trump Derangement Syndrome or Trump Devotion Syndrome.
