How many people realize that the hundreds of billions of dollars that Trump says we are going to get rich from the tarrifs, are coming out of our pockets and into his and his cronies pockets.

MAGA. Those of you who think you know everything are annoying to those of us who know we don't. Ignorance is a condition cured with factual knowledge. Stupidity is a condition caused by ignorance rejecting factual knowledge. #science #education #knowledge

"But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security."

What's next for this administration's war on diversity? Are they going to deport the Hawaiians to Polynesia?

"Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable. Our most basic common link is that we all inhabit this planet. We all breathe the same air. We all cherish our children's future. And we are all mortal." ---John F. Kennedy

The "family" knows the advantage of being contrary, devils advocate, the squeaky wheel, tellers of outlandish tales. Used to influence the large population of arrogant ignorance we have, there is great power and resource. Simply said, gangsters are ruling a cult to run a grift.

"When are the rest of us villagers going to get restless? I have my torch soaking and my pitchfork sharpened. Does anyone have a supply of head catching baskets?" Henri Pierre Frenchman July 10, 1789 #ViveLaRévolution #LongLiveTheRevolution #TheRevolution #WeThePeople

I believe the reason so many GOP members are transphobic, cdphobic, homophobic, is because when they see a female, they want to molest her, and they can't handle that kind of surprise.

The lifting of #DEI practices that the MAGA nation is so happy to see is going to bite them in the ass. The most important thing to any corporation is the bottom line. Diverse people have had to struggle more to get anywhere. When hiring becomes entirely merit based, diverse people will get the job.

Since Musk has been putting all of his time and energy into bagging our tax money for easy transport, while Tesla is running itself just fine, what work justifies the incredible amount of money he has been taking home?

It just occurred to me when big corporations send lobbyists to purchase representatives in government to make laws that eliminate their taxes, the effect is no taxation WITH representation. Since the common person pays most of the taxes, that is taxation WITHOUT representation?

If "trickle down" works, why doesn't "record profits" also mean record wages? Because it actually trickles up to the stockholders. Putting money into something is more profitable than actually creating something. It is not sustainable. If it continues, skills will go extinct.

I am here. I just joined. I hope to run into some of the good connections I had on "Twit X". Like-minded follow for follow. All opinions are my own and evolve when faced with more facts. I'm a student of life. X drove me away by blocking posts, open questions to my local governor in my blue state.

Someone can not represent a lawful society by doing unlawful things. If someone needs to lie, cheat, or steal to succeed, they are not actually successful.
