A depraved and decadent Trump WH dinner for MBS was a stunning low for an American ruling class that's stopped pretending to carry a moral compass

It was really a celebration of death - of democracy, of an overheating planet, and ultimately themselves. My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/ceos...
The night America’s doomed ruling class gorged on lamb, blood, and oil
For America’s deeply corrupt billionaires, time heals all wounds — even from a murderous Saudi prince’s bone saw.

#FinalStageCapitalism has many definitions, but it is clear America is experiencing it now.

Corporations prioritize their quarterly profits over not just their consumers, but over the non-corporate institutions that their consumers--and themselves--rely on to survive.

So far today, Chuck Schumer has said his strategy for preventing Trump sending troops into blue cities is to win over Republican senators (!) while Hakeem Jeffries praised Eric Adams's courage and authenticity (!!) while refusing to endorse Mamdani. Again.

These two gotta go.

Half a century of neoliberal economic bullshit and a Democratic party that prioritizes bipartisanship with Christo-fascist imbeciles is 100% responsible for the scum rising to the top as we are witnessing.

Fascism is the final stage of capitalism.

The stupid is required to complete the level.

We have fascism, the merger of corporate power & state power, because it's the inevitable final stage of capitalism. In this case it's directly from the crises caused by neoliberalism, ushered in by Democrats. We had fascism before 11/5 & still would if Harris won. Trumpism is just the flavor.

Ummm he IS focused on the American people...by sending troops after them.

Read the room/country buddy. He's not "threatening" to do this. Trump IS DOING it. And you're doing nothing to stop it.
The Trump administration’s threat to deploy troops in Portland is unlawful.

Here’s a thought.

Focus on protecting the healthcare of the American people.

Deploying troops, tanks, and federal police officers into our neighborhoods isn't about safety.

It's about sowing fear and chaos — but we won't be intimidated.

Former Vice President Harris is correct in recognizing that the system is broken.

However, it’s vital to acknowledge the Democratic Party has enabled the system to remain that way.

That’s why the Democratic Party must take a moment for introspection.

"It is not an accident that at the same moment that Trump is turning ICE into our national secret police, he’s also creating new classes of 'illegals.' You do not have to squint to see 1930s Germany."
The American Police State Is Here
ICE is about to eclipse the FBI as America's most important law enforcement agency. That's bad. Super-duper bad.

Zohran Mamdani’s win goes well beyond NYC.

It’s a sign of where our country stands, of where we want to go, of what we want our future to hold.

Our government will no longer be owned by billionaires and corporations—it will serve the people.

This is only just the beginning of a national movement.

No person should be deported to face torture or disappeared and denied the ability to contact their families or lawyer.

Tell Congress to bring home all of the immigrants Trump deported to a prison in El Salvador.

Gotta say, I struggle on some days to reconcile the fact that millions of Americans actually WANT to live in a country with viruses spreading freely, thousand of people getting kicked out of their jobs, billionaires feasting on the government & people being snatched off the street by secret police.

There will be more cases like Kilmar Abrego Garcia. More illegal deportations. More mistakes.

And they’re laying the groundwork to deport American citizens - permanently - to El Salvador’s prisons.

It’s not hypothetical.

Republicans must join us & draw the line. Or watch our democracy disappear.

There’s no denying it anymore: the pro-democracy movement is finally back on offense.

Trump’s presidency is an unmitigated disaster.

MAGA is imploding under the weight of its own lies, grifts, and failures.

They’re not strong—they’re desperate. They’re flailing. And they know it.

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive.

No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief.
