America's richest 10% now hold 60% of the nation's wealth.
The bottom half of America? It holds just 6%.
Wealth inequality is eating this country alive.

The biggest divide in America today is not between “right” and “left,” or between Republicans and Democrats.
It’s between democracy and oligarchy.
The old labels — “right” and “left” — prevent most people from noticing they’re getting the shaft.
Know the truth.

This is not true at all.
Russia is far more Muslim than most of Europe and North America, and that has nothing to do with why people hate Russia.
People hate Russia because it is an imperialist dictatorship that invades, rapes, and commits genocide against its neighbors

U.S. military spending is set to hit a record $1 trillion.
Roughly half of defense spending goes to private contractors that routinely price-gouge the government.
Meanwhile, the Pentagon has failed EIGHT straight audits.
This is the military industrial complex on steroids.

This email exchange basically proves that Epstein helped Russia blackmail Trump, which means that Trump is compromised by Russia and explains why he refuses to pressure it.
As a result, Trump should not be involved in negotiations on Ukraine.
