My grandfather having lived there the back half of his life, and most of mine thereforeโ€”as well as my having been married thereโ€”I will always have a special place in my heart for Laguna Beach. Thank you all for doing what youโ€™re doing out there!

If a foreign adversary snuck into our Federal budget and cut science research and education the way weโ€™re cutting it ourselves โ€” strategically undermining Americaโ€™s long-term health, wealth, and security โ€” we would likely consider it an act of war.

Welcome to Earth.

Earth is a planet on which rich people control everything but also donโ€™t make mistakes. They are infallible. If something goes wrong based on a decision made by a rich person, itโ€™s not their fault. The fault lies at the feet of poor people for existing. This is their way.

Thatโ€™s what they want for the lower classes, since they think theyโ€™re above that. Itโ€™s always โ€œdo as I say, not as I doโ€ with the MAGA crowd.

That if is doing a LOT of heavy lifting with this Democratic Party. They have yet to even stumble into a coherent strategy other than โ€œOrange Man Badโ€.

We need a MOVEMENT. Occupy Wall Street 2.0, Bernie Populism, SOMETHING!

Image describing economic conditions around the world.  Total net global private wealth sits around $450 trillion.  There are 3028 Billionaires in the world, constituting 0.0000003% of the global population, whose net worth is $16.1 trillion.  There are 58 million millionaires in the world, or 1.5% of the total global population.  Their net worth is $214 trillion, or 47% of total wealth in the world. This means that 1.5% of the world's population owns 50% of it's monetary resources.

This is our reality in the 21st century.

This is the status quo the rich and the uninformed alike defend. That Trump and oligarchs the world over prop up and worship.

So much for efficiency. All those cuts and they spent MORE!

Laying off workers and cutting the benefits of the lower and middle class isnโ€™t the move.

TAX. THE. RICH!

Pass it on!!

So price controls are only good when Trump does them? And MAGA is supporting him on this.

The same MAGA that rails against Communismโ€”is for state price controls.

MAKE IT MAKE SENSE!

It is a conflict of interest for companies that develops medicine for the sick to profit off of illness.

You will get expensive treatments, but no cures.

Not that I wouldnโ€™t love it, but that sounds pretty similar to the sentiments of Republicans circa 2020. Iโ€™m not big on election denialism especially without concrete facts and sources. Are there some out there Iโ€™m unaware of?

Iโ€™d rather our politicians act with decorum and professionalism frankly, but I take your meaning. Sadly politicians are no longer public servants. They serve their interest, and the special interests that elect them (for the most part).

Over the course of the next few weeks I will be detailing a plan for every sector of our economy & how to update it for the 21st century & eliminate the greed & waste in our system.

Itโ€™s 2025โ€”arenโ€™t you done living the same way, doing the same things simply because weโ€™re told it has to be this way?

This should alarm EVERYBODY.
This is the fast march to fascism:

First itโ€™s targeting nonprofits.
Then universities.
Then jailing perceived enemies. Then judges.
Then opposition.
Then suspending due process. Now wanting to suspend habeas corpus.

Save for the last oneโ€”theyโ€™ve done ALL OF THESE!
