Why is 🇺🇸 media not reporting on this 128 day Albanian protest of Kushner and Ivanka’s insane corruption?

Huge corporations like Amazon, Walmart, and Uber are among the top employers of SNAP and Medicaid recipients. Meanwhile, their CEOs are raking in multi-million dollar pay packages. How is this not a bigger scandal?

🧱 Trust is Infrastructure. It’s what makes democracy legitimate. Society functional. And markets work. When trust is strong, systems run smoothly. When it collapses, everything gets heavier - more rules, more friction, more cost. This isn’t about optimism or being “nice.” It’s about system design.

This young man has it exactly right.
A tweet from “Adam Mockler @adammockler” reads:
“Stephen Miller just went on Fox News and said telling troops to refuse illegal orders is an ‘open act of insurrection.’ He is telling on himself.
They are planning to give illegal orders, and they want a military that will follow them blindly.”

What happens if you don’t do background checks or training for thousands of people and you give them all total authority? ICE has been caught looting and destroying property at Pittsburgh restaurants. They even tried to break into the safes. They loaded food, supplies and equipment into vehicles /

It's telling that Donald Trump's takeaway from Jeffrey Epstein hiring Virginia Giuffre away from Mar-a-Lago is to feel sorry for Donald Trump because he lost an employee, not to feel sorry for Virginia Giuffre because she was trafficked and raped.

Exactly. Once they admit he’s done one bad thing, there can be no stopping point, as he’s a bottomless pit of moral depravity. And once they step on that slippery slope, they can’t escape their own culpability. So instead they look away, and lie to others—and to themselves.

Hate to tell you, Adam, but they are more described by their deep hatred for the rest of us than they are about any love for their God. MAGA is a hateful murder cult. Fox News has turned our former friends, family and neighbors into hate zombies. That is the reality that must be owned.
