An official government account using the word “remigration” is not normal. It’s an imported term from European far-right movements that refers to mass expulsion. Democracies do not use population-purification language. #holdfast #SteadyState

It will take America *decades*—not merely years—to recover from what these robber barons did to us.
They destroyed our government, caused untold pain to the average American directly and indirectly, and used our money as their piggy bank.
And all of it *should* have been criminal.

The Trump administration believes that the rich and powerful should be pardoned for their crimes, even after judges and juries determined their guilt.
But if you’re a non-white guy in a fishing boat, there’s no need for a trial or even an arrest. Murder from above, no questions asked.

When this criminal was jailed, the judge told David Gentile and America: ‘This is a warning to would-be fraudsters that seeking to get rich by taking advantage of investors gets you only a one-way ticket to jail.’ I guess not
