DARK GOTHIC MAGA: How Tech Billionaires Plan to Destroy America
YouTube video by Blonde Politics | The Silly Serious
youtu.be
This video shows tech bros telling us exactly how they want to carve up the world into fiefdoms and destroy democracy. Sounds horrible and it is, but it’s actually hopeful because they’re so clueless. If we unite, we can defeat them.

WATCH: Adjunct faculty typically aren’t offered employer-sponsored health insurance, leaving many to rely on the Affordable Care Act for coverage. With subsidies set to end, professor Thomas Moomjy & others may face sharply higher premiums - or be forced to go without.

Trump’s solicitor general, John Sauer, with his raspy voice sounds like the devil himself. I don’t usually focus on people’s physical imperfections but this is a little too on point.

Those tree hugging hippies in Hungary now lead the world in the share of electricity generated from solar with almost 25% of their electricity coming from solar in 2024.
A remarkable leap from just 7% five years ago.

The White House continues to make our work harder. They’ve:
✂️ Cut funding for transportation and education
👎 Effectively told families in poverty “you’re on your own”
❌ Presided over the longest government shutdown in history
🚨 Failed to act after Western Maryland was hit by a devastating storm.
