From a campaign email: "dark money super PACs and outside groups have committed over ONE HUNDRED MILLION dollars in attacks against Roy Cooper so far" I've been seeing these ads everywhere. Not even original. "OMG Roy Cooper has set convicted criminal illegal aliens free to murder again."
Just when the war he started had finally nearly taken over the media narratives, the Tate brothers could bring public interest in the Epstein files back to the front pages. Because why in the world would the administration squash this investigation? Other than, Florida=Trump=Epstein=Tate Bros.

We are witnessing a failed, unstable president now trying to misuse the powers of the federal government to taint an American election, backed by his coterie of creepy billionaires.
Trump has wiped out $1.5 billion in penalties and restitution for taxpayers and victims, thanks to his sweeping pardons of convicted fraudsters. His family and his political groups, on the other hand, are raking it in. Watch.

"For Plato, the source of inequality was a disease of the soul that the Greeks called pleonexia — a kind of insatiable greed...Plato likened those insatiable souls to slaves who are ruled by their desires."
"Plato contended that in a thriving republic, if anyone acquired more than four times the wealth of the poorest citizens, he should donate the surplus to the city. Not five million times the wealth of the typical family [what Musk has] — four times the wealth of the poorest."

Ths is flying under the radar, but Russ Vought is advancing a new scheme to give Trump's cronies total control of nearly $179B in federal grant funds. Billions for lifesaving disaster relief and medical research would be subject to Trumpian loyalty oaths. Make no mistake: this is fascism.
