No worker should need SNAP or Medicaid. Taxpayers are paying, massively, part of Amazon’s cost of doing business. Bezos gets richer and richer, while we bail out his business every damn day.

#Project2025 lays out the Repugnican blueprint to transition the US from a democratic republic into a Christian nationalist dictatorship, similar to that which they decry. November 3 is our next (perhaps last) chance to keep them from implementing this destructive plan. #ApathyKillsDemocracy. VOTE!
SHARIA LAW, ANYONE?

Republican policy towards the citizen

Are you concerned that Sharia Law, the law of Islam, is being legislated here in America?

Here are some of the tenets of Sharia Law:

•	Government based on religious doctrine
•	Women have fewer rights than men
•	Homosexuality is outlawed
•	Rejecting science in favor of religious doctrine
•	No separation between church and state
•	Religion is taught in school
•	Abortion is illegal

Curiously, these are the same beliefs as the Republican Party. So if you want to enact Sharia Law in America, vote Republican.

Repugnicans have been trying to systematically dismantle public schools for at least 50 years, getting a big boost with 1978's Prop 13 in California.

I hope he reminded Martha at some point that she'd be paying a LOT more for all those vital services if they were privatized. I defy her to find one example of a crucial utility that, once privatized, offered ratepayers better, more efficient services at a lower cost than when operated municipally.

By "neither side," are you referring to Republicans and Democrats? Because they are not opposing sides. They are both wings of the oligarch party. We don't have a left in this country. We have the ultra-right MAGA and corporate Dems. The working class and poor are not represented in US politics.

The way I read @ruticious.bsky.social' reply is that we need to confront the evils of any religion that says your children are evil because they don't love the people or express their gender the way you want them to, and to ask towns and states all over to support people who are struggling.

Andriesz' final social media post.
Simon Andriesz
@SAndriesz

I am the British whistleblower who reported evidence concerning Howard Lutnick, his links to Jeffrey Epstein, and Cantor Fitzgerald and BGC to the FBI in 2020-21.

Listen to the BBC File on 4 documentary about my whistleblower story:
bbc.com/audio/play/m0e...

BBC News:
bbc.com/news/articles/...

I later shared evidence with the House Oversight Committee, which subsequently questioned Lutnick behind closed doors.

My disclosures also contributed to regulatory action in the US and UK, including a £96m HMRC tax assessment relating to BGC’s partnership scheme. I believe the true tax exposure is substantially higher.

I also reported to the FBI and financial regulators matters involving Cantor Fitzgerald’s Relief Fund and BGC/Cantor’s annual 9/11 Charity Day.

The personal consequences of whistleblowing, and the retaliation I say followed, have been devastating for my family and me.The personal consequences of whistleblowing, and the retaliation I say followed, have been devastating for my family and me.

Mother Jones previously reported that documents I uncovered revealed a years-long business tie between Howard Lutnick, Cantor Fitzgerald and Jeffrey Epstein through AdFin, including a 2018 exchange in which Lutnick and Epstein discussed the company directly:
motherjones.com/politics/2026/...

Follow me here on X and on LinkedIn. I intend to share more of the evidence and the story behind what happened.

Trickle down economics has only worked for the ultra wealthy and corporations while screwing over everyone else. Every tax cut for corporations and the ultra wealthy that has been passed into law since Reagan must be repealed and any democrat who doesn't go along with that needs to be primaried.
