"In a kleptocracy, corrupt politicians [or their buddies] enrich themselves secretly outside the rule of law, through insider trading, kickbacks, bribes, and special favors from lobbyists and corporations, or they simply direct state funds to themselves and their associates." (Wikipedia)

NEXT TIME DO IT IN FRONT OF THE WHITE HOUSE, SO IT'S TELEVISED AROUND THE WORLD AND THE WORLD UNDERSTANDS TRUMPISM IS NOT THE NORM.

REMEMBER flowers in our hair? Time to WAKE UP the generation who marched with flowers in their hair, barefoot, singing Joan Baez to name one! April 19th a good start!

Okay, but how? Are rally goers committed to never voting Republican again? Are they going freeze out Trump and Republican supporters till Republicans resign? Are y’all helping ppl tackle their racism and how it informs their political beliefs and choices?!?!

I wish you all well - I hope all the rallies you've held and will hold bears fruit.

Oligarchs should hold no sway on policies. Musk is a great example of how wrong things can go.

Bernie Sanders has been fighting against oligarchy for decades. We need to finally get behind him and snuff out the rich in power

Good to see but let’s not forget Bernie never bothered with the hard part: creating and passing legislation that actually changed things. Let AOC run the show.

Sadly, I have absolutely no expectation of this authoritarian administration and supporting MAGAts ever facing accountability. The Ukraine shakedown & Capitol insurrection impeachments, all the FOTUS felony indictments—looked like slamdunks. With CJ of SCOTUS in the bag, this is America now

PSYCHOPATH Trump (KGB codename since 1987: Krasnov) has been PSYCHOPATH Putin’s bootlicker for decades.

Trapped w/in the behavior patterns of their disorder, WORLD DOMINATION/ENSLAVEMENT is the agenda as *RUSSIA’S Republicans*—also cultivated over decades—destroy America/Americans to pave the way.

ladyoldandgray.bsky.social•1 day ago

PSYCHOPATHS Putin’s/Trump’s/Eloon’s MAGAs are a redux of PSYCHOPATH Hitler’s Nazis = psychopaths (1 in 25 persons in the general population) & their psychotic human pets.

The free world—not in denial/delusion, as are an abundance of Americans—will continue to protect itself from NAZI/MAGA America.
