Georgia deserves better. Better than pro-war, pro-tariff, pro-cutting your health care Trump puppet Mike Collins. And America deserves better than Donald Trump.

The GOP's assault on our economy will indubitably lead to more petty crime as Americans grow increasingly desperate to feed and house their families. The uptick in crime will be blamed on criminals and immigrants, and the GOP will use this to justify diverting social spending to law enforcement.

When did it become patriotic to make oil executives billionaires?

Oil companies are making billions. In the U.S., calls to tax their windfall are growing
Higher oil prices since the Iran war began mean many oil companies have brought in excess profits. Some U.S. lawmakers want to tax those windfall profits and give the money to lower-income Americans.

image of a partial page from the novel Southern Man by Greg Iles 

"I watched in disbelief as businessmen voted for a repeat bankrupt, laborers for a boss infamous for stiffing his workers, evangelicals for a serial adulterer, women for an admitted sexual assaulter, patriots for a draft dodger who would sell his country's secrets for trivial gain, educated men for an ignoramus.  But they did so with fierce gladness in their hearts. Because what their chosen one had done was open Pandora's Box---yes, the old one, filled with ancient calamities of race hatred and rage and cruelty and bloodlust and infinite greed--- and hell them that these things were the remedy for all their grievances, that all their anger was justified, and most important: None of what ailed them was their own fault, or ever had been.

"HIGHER GAS PRICES?" This is the least of our worries. How about $1,000,000,000/day for Netanyahu and Trump's (and Graham's) war of opportunity?
