Our nation is on the edge of the abyss in part due to money in politics.
Since the controversial Supreme Court Ruling, Citizens United v. FEC which enabled corporations and other outside groups to spend unlimited funds on elections, our political landscaped is ruled by those with great wealth.

Someone else very prominent warned about the same things almost 50 years ago....

The war on the middle class started under Reagan and is finally reaching its culmination.

kaslina.bsky.social•39 days ago

Exactly right. I am not a conspiracy theorist but looking at this historically it is the culmination. With that being said, I do believe we will see the end of this. We are in for turbulent times but always remember the French Revolution and the fall of Mussolini. In now way am I making threats.

bryceatwell.bsky.social•39 days ago

"late stage capitalism"... hopefully the darkness before the dawn. Tax the sociopathic rich who gamed the system so we can stabilize social security and make affordable healthcare accessible to all.

britexas.bsky.social•39 days ago

Yes sir it started with Reagan and his partner in crime: Lewis Powell
The 'Powell Memo' started the experiment of Corporate Rule.

bryceatwell.bsky.social•39 days ago

I'll have to look him up. I just know the tax and regulation codes changed drastically to steal the post-war gains of the middle class.

britexas.bsky.social•39 days ago

I posted just a quick copy/paste tidbit of the Powell Memo off of Wikipedia.

britexas.bsky.social•39 days ago

The Powell Memorandum ultimately came to be a blueprint for the rise of the American conservative movement and the formation of a network of influential right-wing think tanks and lobbying organizations, such as the Business Roundtable, The Heritage Foundation, the Cato Institute,

bryceatwell.bsky.social•39 days ago

Yes the Heritage Foundation has been a fascist force since then. Gotta give them credit for working 24/7 toward their sick and twisted vision of america.

britexas.bsky.social•39 days ago

Yeah, they were definitely organized and stubborn about it. I guess it paid off. For them...

britexas.bsky.social•39 days ago

Yeah check out the Powell Memo of 1971. But yes sir, Ronald fucking Reagan. The devil himself. 🤣

revdrauntmartha.bsky.social•39 days ago

It started with Reagan, but as President Biden pointed out, has been tried before. Greed is the enemy of humankind. I’m not so sure it’s reached its culmination and we can’t let it.

bryceatwell.bsky.social•38 days ago

When the middle class is broken and soup lines like the 30's form we will know it's reached it's culmination.

redrocklvr.bsky.social•39 days ago

He warned of death and destruction if indicted?.... Smoke and mirrors! One good tech guy can make himself look like thousands until it's time to actually show up. He would have to have the code first.

paulydee66.bsky.social•38 days ago

About 4 years too late, as usual, Joe

jamiller.bsky.social•39 days ago

Bernie Sanders has been warning us about this for YEARS.

rbr8.bsky.social•35 days ago

We missed the chance have a President who truly has fought for the people his ENTIRE adult life. The fear mongering prevailed and he lost our chance. #berniesanders

mequashie.bsky.social•38 days ago

Imagine how different the world would be for workers and progress on climate change if Bernie were now ending his second term. Establishment Democrats brought us Trump by compromising to the right at the opening of every policy window.

northsquatch.bsky.social•38 days ago

Finally, kind makes you wonder why he didnt do anything about it while in office.

britexas.bsky.social•39 days ago

I mean .....tax the rich and corporations. Billionaires or democracy.

We CANNOT have both.

krazy-kat.bsky.social•39 days ago

But we didn't win. People did not vote

liberalgigi3.bsky.social•39 days ago

I will miss him terribly!

strangebrickdroog.bsky.social•39 days ago

I admire Joe a great deal and he accomplished so much, but perhaps he shouldn’t have waited until his exit to speak these truths. He’s an old school politician in a new world…I hope he can relax and enjoy the time he has left. He did MANY good things.

madz123.bsky.social•39 days ago

Im with you!

forseofone.bsky.social•38 days ago

I just hope the right ears got the message.

It’s oligarchy now!!

joes-spot.bsky.social•39 days ago

No more fact checking… no consequences

And the punchline will be…
“With liberty and justice for all.”

jefflee65.bsky.social•38 days ago

But why wait until the door is hitting him in the ass on the way out. He had the power and voice to address much earlier. Stating now is beyond lame duck, it's just lame. Dem are desperate for a pit bull.

dcnative.bsky.social•39 days ago

Biden is not in charge. He leaves as a failure. We told him to fire Garland, warned him about elections being bought, pleaded for action against those planning to destroy America. What did he do? Ignored us.
If Dems are ever going to win again, we must hold our elected leaders accountable.

samgodwell.bsky.social•39 days ago

hate to agree, but he did fail to protect our country. yes, he saved the economy... of course - the oligarchs demanded it. he made a show of supporting unions, but he did nothing to ensure their continued protection. now we're at the mercy of the very oligarchs he did nothing to curb.

revdrauntmartha.bsky.social•39 days ago

Speaking truth to power!💙

samgodwell.bsky.social•39 days ago

we have to find a way to get rid of citizens united. we also have to be willing to do whatever it takes to get it done. we're at war... while it is bloodless, so far, they are abusing our system to undermine the people.
