If a con man is capable of convincing you that CANADA is our enemy but NORTH KOREA is our friend, then, intellectually you are in serious trouble.

Walmart getting a 2.9 billion dollar tariff refund, that consumers actually paid, should piss everyone off. Especially since they have been increasing prices incrementally on staples like canned vegetables.
I’ve been in or around politics for over a half-century now. I’ve watched as corporations and the super-rich flooded D.C. with campaign cash and ransacked our system. It won't be easy, but here’s how we break the corporate oligarchy and return power to the people.
