Amazon just announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year.

UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year.

Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

β€œIf the West Wing is the mind of the nation, then the East Wing is the heart.”

- former First Lady Betty Ford

The East Wing is gone.

Over a century of American history, reduced to rubble.

All to appease the vanity of a corrupt authoritarian.

There's no way to stop crime when the leader of the criminals is literally the President of the United State and all of his regime.

RFK Jr: It's gonna be the biggest infusion of federal dollar into rural healthcare in American history

BERNIE SANDERS: Yeah. You know why? Because you're cutting $150b for rural hospitals, you're putting $50b back. That's not an infusion. That's a loss of $100b.

Slowly but surely my dears men like this will have no place in Canada to hide their hateful wish for authoritarian rule over people.

Soon Canada will have the most trustworthy form of freedom we can possibly muster.

Freedom to love people.
Freedom to exist.
Freedom to be kind.

Canadian Freedom.

πŸ“ŒThe President of the United States posted a FAKE VIDEO TO THE WORLD of a kneeling Barack Obama being placed in handcuffs, and we are supposed go along like it is just another day.
Our press has so completely lost the thread it would be laughable if it wasn't so damn dangerous and disgusting.

The State of Illinois at this time has received no requests or outreach from the federal government asking if we need assistance, and we have made no requests for federal intervention.

LEFT: Where our government incarcerates a person who has a tattoo in honor of a family member.

RIGHT: Where our government incarcerates a person who has facilitated and/or engaged in the sexual assault of over a thousand children.

The other voices and my main one can't believe people have silence and the tinnitus doesn't really help.
