This is how our government has been corrupted:

1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat

We must get big money out of politics.

It is the root of our dysfunction.

BREAKING: new emails CONFIRM my reporting that there are TRAINING VIDEOS instructing FBI personnel on how to review the Epstein Files. Plus, a lot more…
The emails reveal the special training given to FBI personnel working on what it called the “Epstein Transparency Project.” In some instances they referred to it as the “Special Redaction Project.” The training entailed PowerPoint slide presentations and video instruction on how to review the files.

Being in the US illegally is a civil offence

It’s not a felony. It’s not a criminal offence

So why are so many people being violently rounded up & thrown in camps?

Racism & fascism

The DOJ admitted that only 2.5% of people arrested in Chicago raids had criminal records

Which means 97.5% did NOT

This is occupant Trump, who has been buddy buddy with the Russia, China, and North Korea.

So of course Trump will try to style his admin after dictatorships across the world.

No wonder fascists love it.

But I’m so inspired by the millions of Americans standing up and pushing back against authoritarianism.

We are still not shopping at Starbucks.
Baristas at 95 Starbucks stores in 65 cities are currently on OPEN-ENDED STRIKE over unfair labor practices.

It's day 13 of the strike. This is the longest ULP strike in the company's history.

Workers are asking customers everywhere to show solidarity by boycotting Starbucks.

Apple is anti-union.

Tesla is anti-union.

Amazon is anti-union.

McDonald's is anti-union.

Starbucks is anti-union.

Google is anti-union.

Walmart is anti-union.

These mega-corporations aren’t on workers’ side and their actions make it painfully clear.
