Political brothel! That captures this moment in American history. Ushered in by the Supreme Court. Exploited by the the billionaire class. Enabled by feckless politicians, who rode the money train to the illusion of power to find themselves beholden to their masters

Thy symbolism is chilling, the outlook may appear daunting, but we're not done yet.
It's no longer about fighting the malign intent of a tyrant; it's about the survival of moral decency, integrity & compassion. We have the power to defeat tyranny in our pocket; it's time to use it.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

The upward redistribution of wealth over the past 50 years has shifted $80 trillion from the bottom 90% of Americans to the top 1%. 

That’s $80 trillion that would have gone into the paychecks of the working class.

The greatest trick of all is trickle-down economics.

We are doing this. Our governments. Our taxes. Our arms sales.

This is our Holocaust. Our Cambodian killing fields. Our Balkans. Our Rwandan genocide.

We are doing this and history will never forgive us.
