I refuse to live in fear. I'll remain vigilant and ready to resist (that includes blocking anyone who tries to slide into my DMs unnecessarily).

Trump making plans to send billions in cash bailouts to farmers with taxpayer money The president has also said he wants to use direct tariff revenue for the payments, but that could trigger a major fight in Congress.

Members of Congress should be EXPLICITLY denied this relief, as well as anyone for whom farming is not their primary source of income.

I'm not so sure bailouts are coming. Trump doesn't need their votes again, and now his billionaire buddies can pick up farmland for pennies on the dollar.

One of my teammates' daughter was injured. Closer than I've ever been too (which doesn't make it any more tragic, just more real).

I hope you're referring to his presidency? I'm leaving the country for two weeks on 8/29, and I'd like to say I'd be okay with not being able to come back, but I've got a kid in college who needs me here.

This is ALL about shifting costs of government to consumers. GOP has always wanted more of a VAT and they were never going to pass it phrased that way.

MIT Predicted the Collapse of Today's Society in 1972. And We're Right On Track. MIT's 1972 World3 model was strikingly accurate, based on modern data.

"Essentially, the model aimed to answer the question of what would happen if humanity keeps pursuing economic growth, no matter the societal and environmental cost? It concluded that, without drastic change, industrial society was headed for collapse."

New tariffs are generating billions of dollars in revenue, but Bessent says that will go toward paying national debt | CNN Business Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent on Tuesday threw cold water on the idea that Americans could soon receive tariff rebate checks.

Will Americans ever realize that the tariffs have nothing to do with increasing US manufacturing (we don't have enough workers), and everything to do with shifting the cost of US debt to consumers via a consumption tax (the most regressive form of taxation in the world). share.google/cLvAxzthhLcN...

Ex-CIA Whistleblower: "The NSA Audited The 2024 Election, Kamala Harris Won" Math doesn’t lie—people do. A buried NSA‑authorized audit paved the way for this unelected illegitimate regime.

What say you? I believe it, but many on our side won't go there.

Photos show the extreme inequality between rich and poor Americans during the Gilded Age The Gilded Age was a period of enormous wealth for some and extreme poverty for others.

Walter leaves out the part about Trump wanting us to return to the Gildes Age where the robber barons have 100% of the wealth, and the poor lived in squalor and hunger. www.businessinsider.com/gilded-age-i...
