Important translation of GOP-speak.
When they say “free market” they mean monopolies, union busting, govt handouts for giant corporations and the ability for oligarchs to rob ordinary people with impunity.

It's as I was saying this afternoon: while it's imperative that what's happening with Gaetz be reported, it's more important that some reporting be done on why none of it matters anymore (see second headline below). Trump has poisoned the soul of this country—even 9 years ago this would've mattered.
