Tim Cook donated $1M to Trump’s inauguration. He fawned over Trump and gifted him a 24-karat gold plaque (as Apple lobbied for tariff exemptions). Apple donated to Trump’s White House ballroom. And it removed ICE tracking apps from its stores following a demand from the DOJ. Remember this.

On this I cannot disagree. Mainstream media and legacy media have been bought and paid for and are willing turning a blind eye to an obvious coverup. No one is willing to go to the hospital and find out the truth? Shameful.

I don’t think we talk about this enough. Reps of Taylor Farms, the source of the cyclospora outbreak, went to the White House. Days later, the FDA magically absolved TF of culpability. TF had given a Trump PAC one million dollars. That’s not just corruption, it’s intentional disregard for life.

Sick. My @smh @theage cartoon.
Four frames. 1. Terns on a beach. One says to another, “I feel sick.” 2. A fur seal on a beach beside lots of dead birds thinks, “I feel sick.” 3. A woman reads a series of news headline placards with “BIRD FLU JUMPS SPECIES”, “MORE HEAT WAVES, FIRES”, “NO END OF WARS”; she thinks, “I feel sick”. 4. The world, with fires and explosions everywhere, thinks, “I feel sick.”
