How low we have sunk as a country. The US Department of Defense is now run by a rabid war criminal.
Ordering the execution of helpless survivors of an attack is ALWAYS a war crime, whether they civilian or military.
Pure, mindless, barbarism.

When we ants 🐜 decide to stand up… we get universal affordable healthcare, universal pensions for our retirement years, affordable housing, life long education for new skills, much less expensive Defense Department … and the progressive tax system on all incomes that would easily pay for the above.
The grasshopper gets it — divide and conquer. Today’s robber barons use the same playbook. But together, we have all the power. Watch.

Conservatives yell “socialism” at every initiative designed to help people.
Maybe you've heard the word a few times already today.
But this is nothing more than an old scare tactic.
A functioning government requires pooling resources for the common good. Let me explain.

If inflation comes up at the dinner table, don’t forget to draw attention to a deeper structural driver of high prices: corporate power.
Much of the food industry is dominated by a few corporate giants with the power to keep prices high because they face little competition.
