Musk also harvested all of the government data for his AI projects

Where are our Democratic billionaires? Well I hope, quietly, they are coming forward.

The wealthy are using the anger of the pissed off minority white to vote against themselves.

I do not suffer fools lightly, like Musk, and Zuck and the lies they’re selling.

Organized money and organized people is the definition of the community organizing that Saul Alinsky started in Chicago in the back of the yards efforts he championed. The Industrial Areas Foundation is still doing this work in our country. If people are looking to be organized, look for an IAF affiliate near you.

The open corruption of our current court is astonishing.

Cheeto’s Nazi/GOP Party And Its “Business Government”

The implicit function of a democratic government is to serve its constituents not control them Democratic governments cannot and should not operate as a corporation or business because by definition these entities perform to make a profit A democratic government is composed of constituents who help one another not profit off one another and takes on the very projects that corporations/businesses would not take on because for them there’s no profit in doing so

So the GOP/Nazi approach that they sold to the American electorate is that they would run the government like a corporation/business And the people bought it So the Nazi/GOP did exactly what the electorate wanted Take profits from the American taxpayer and make deals for the benefit of the aristocracy/MAGA leaders

Why is the electorate aghast at what Cheeto is doing? Because there is a distinct disconnect from what the taxpayer sees the government doing for them and what the aristocracy has deemed a mandate to run the government as a business and make profits at the expense of the American taxpayer meanwhile protecting the extreme wealth gap in the country The electorate has seen the light and disillusionment has set in on this MAGA/aristocracy model of governing Vote these Nazis out of office and tax the hell out of the aristocrats If they want to leave the country that’s just fine with us WE the People don’t want them French Revolution 2.0 American style

The problem is, we want to have a conversation about this, the recipients of it do not.

I know MAGA people so uniformed, they’ve never heard of CU. And they always vote.

Citizens United and the Presidential immunity decision were the two Supreme Court decisions which most threaten the existence of our democracy. They must be reversed.

Read "Invisible Doctrine: The Secret History of Neoliberalism" by George Monbiot and Peter Hutchison to see how EXACTLY this is ALL playing out against ALL of us! They lay it all out in all the gory details how we ALL are under assault from them. It is bad and getting worse all the time if we do not take steps to stop them. And they help show the way to fight back against this attempted takeover of our entire lives!!!
