If you are a foreign president who commits crimes overseas, America will come get you, arrest you, and lock you up.

But if you are a US president who commits crimes here in the United States, America will give you immunity from prosecution, reelect you, and bribe you with billions of dollars.

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers.

Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they?

If Network NEWSCASTS, and their Late Night Shows, are almost 100% Accurate about a Pathological Liar and Convicted Felon who Incited an Insurrection, tried to Steal a Fair Election and is Covering up Sex Crimes against Children, shouldn't his Disgraceful Presidency be terminated? I say, YES!

Oligarchy (noun):

A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.

We are dealing with such corruption in every aspect of our government, I don't know how we undo the damage.

Screenshot of a CNBC headline that reads: โ€œHow device hoarding by Americans is costing economy.โ€ The subtext says Americans are holding onto devices longer than ever, which may be smart for consumers but can reduce productivity.

If a phone still works fine, itโ€™s not โ€œdevice hoardingโ€ to keep using it. Itโ€™s common sense.

Elon Musk is using Twitter to call for the National Guard shooter to be โ€œhanged without delayโ€.

He says where thereโ€™s premeditated murder, punishment must be swift.

He knew cutting USAID would kill people.

He did it anyways.

600,000 people have died.

Whatโ€™s his punishment?

This is the first Thanksgiving for Sophie & Colin Hortman without their parents, Minnesota state Rep. Melissa Hortman and Mark Hortman who were assassinated along with the family dog in an act of political murder. National guards troops were not deployed to the state in response.

This is how our government has been corrupted:

1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat

We must get big money out of politics.

It is the root of our dysfunction.

There was a time when the United States looked down its nose at the countries in South America for being lawless banana republics. Who's the banana republic now, bitches?

Marjorie Taylor Greene's resigning in time to get a pension is a lesson to everyone.

Most Americans don't get *any* pension anymore, but Congress gave itself a pension after only five years of work.

Our "representatives" aren't working for us, they are [barely] working for themselves.

The EPA will approve two new pesticides containing โ€œforever chemicalsโ€ and relax a reporting rule for companies who make products with forever chemicals.

The moves come after a $60 million lobbying blitz from the forever chemical industry.

Where is the MAHA outcry?

Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security.

Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.

Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

A tweet from โ€œAdam Mockler @adammocklerโ€ reads:
โ€œStephen Miller just went on Fox News and said telling troops to refuse illegal orders is an โ€˜open act of insurrection.โ€™ He is telling on himself.
They are planning to give illegal orders, and they want a military that will follow them blindly.โ€

Drug companies have hired over 500 lobbyists this year to gut the Inflation Reduction Act's drug price negotiation provisions.

They outnumber public interest advocates more than 20 to 1.

We must get money out of politics and end Big Pharma's deadly greed once and for all.
