Just 29 people control $4.1 trillion. That's more wealth than the entire GDP of every country on Earth except the top three. In the hands of a single bus full of people. Tell me again we can't afford living wages for everyone one more time.

Even if Democrats do well in November, Trump won't be as restrained as we'd like.

If you watched Todd Blanche’s confirmation hearing, what you saw was gaslighting. He promised senators he’d listen to Epstein survivors. They met. According to Liz Stein, they got no real answers, no accountability, and no meaningful commitments. She says they were treated like political pawns.

The thing is, even if any particular event is totally legitimate and not fake, no one trusts the people in power anymore. They created this environment. Everybody knows their game. Expects shenanigans. False flags or not, they've opened themselves up for the scrutiny.

As much as this pains me as an American, the US is a rogue nation ruled by a despot unbound by national or international law. The free world must quickly form a new alliance perhaps across new borders to protect itself. Our engineered Supreme Court and supine Congress lack the courage to help you.
