Feeling overwhelmed with all of this. LISTEN. Another Louisiana resident (Marshawn is the only name we have) testifies against the state’s racial gerrymander, speaking truth to power up and down the hearing room and predicts how this story will end. Speak your truth, fight and believe.

Q: "Have your advisors told you anything in terms of how long we can expect gas prices as high as they are right now?" Trump: "I don't need advisors to tell me that…When this is over, oil prices are going to go down very rapidly. So is inflation, so is everything else."

Key point here. @nytimes.com made the editorial choice to elevate Third Way memo because it buttressed "Dems divided over Abolish ICE" story they set out to tell. And Third Way produced the memo because they knew it would get media attention from reporters looking to tell that story. It's all rotten

The oligarchy wants full control of what we watch and read.

The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.
The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.
