This book does a great job of exploring how we got here. Trump is just the newest symptom of the disease.

I am a podcaster and writer. Noam Chomsky is slightly to the right of me. My links are at eardstepa.com I do not respond to DMs. I'm in a relationship, not looking.
We need to decentralize everything: the food system, the economy, and especially the government. All big business should be broken up into small entities and handed over to the workers. Eliminate the systems that created the billionaires.
All protection of the people has gone out the window. Welcome to the good old days where the wealthy have no limits and we have no rights.
Apple got a $2.2 billion tariff refund. Amazon got $600 million. Trump is sending the "refunds" to the companies, not working people. Every single cent of these refunds should go back to American consumers.
Ben McKenzie maps out the potential crypto crimes of Trump & members of his Executive Branch—specifically how they’ve benefited from their financial ties to the shady foreign operator, Tether. Gulp down this #CupOfJoe full of significant facts.
Just in case you weren't struggling enough, Shitler is raising tariffs again. MAPA. Make Americans Poorer Again is their slogan.
She has always been someone who remembers where she came from and tries to help as many as possible.

They will just have to tear the whole thing down to get his stench out
It kinda looks like Caesar’s Palace now.
We will never know how many ICE has murdered, because if it isn't recorded, they pretend it didn't happen.
Mexican man killed by truck while fleeing ICE was in U.S. legally on tourist visa. "According to the Miami Herald, [28-year-old Juan Jairo Coronilla Durán], from the Mexican state of Guanajuato, had only been in Florida for two days when he died..." www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...
They hid the real number of Covid deaths, so this is not a surprise.
FLASHBACK: Just two days ago, MeidasTouch reported that the official government website had mysteriously changed the number of American service members killed in the Iran war from 18 to 14. Now, the New York Times has confirmed this change was made.
ballsandstrikes.org/law-politics... This officially means you cannot opt out of forced labor. If you don't sell your body to capitalism willingly, they will make you do it by force. Still think we are a free country? Why do you think they are building those camps? There is a loophole for slavery.
Unhoused People Are Paying the Price For the Supreme Court’s Cruelty
The Grants Pass decision allowed more cities and states to impose criminal penalties for the offense of being poor in public.

The latest poisoning of our food should be a wake up call that food needs to be decentralized. Food should be grown locally and indoors. Indoor farming will not only make year round growing possible everywhere, but will eliminate the need for pesticides. Corporations shouldn't own our food supply.
The wealthy always put their toxic plants in poor neighborhoods because they view the rest of us as expendable. It is time we treat them with the same courtesy.
😕 says it all, really (From @justinjpearson.bsky.social )
Good morning everyone. Every system (political, religious, economic, social, or any combination of these) will be abusive if the top has too much authority and too little accountability. The problem of every country ever known has always been power that knows no consequences.
It looks awful but tastes amazing. It's tomato and spinach soup. I think I will name it the reflecting pool. 🤔🤣🤣🤣
I will be keeping my perfect record of not listening to the moron speak. I watch fiction when I want to watch things that are not true.
Latest bs headline from the media is that inflation eased because gas fell a bit. Everything else is still going up, well not everything. Wages are not going up except for CEOs.
