Five corporations control 90% of the US media market.
Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today.
Four giants control 80% of meat processing.
A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry.
The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

This….
The 100 lowest-paying US corporations spent $644B on stock buybacks from 2019 to 2024.
Buybacks artificially boost share prices and inflate CEO pay.
The typical worker at these companies earned $35k last year.
Meanwhile, the average CEO was paid $17.2M
See the problem?

Imagine if Alice Paul, Harriet Tubman or Abraham Lincoln said "We're fucked. We're doomed. America is over."
I won't betray my American ancestors who fought for my freedoms by accepting defeat.
That's not Pollyanna. It's the human desire for liberty.

This is a really bad time to be a person who understands history well…

New in PN: Judge rules that anti-woke is just racism
“'I’ve never seen a record where racial discrimination was so palpable,' Judge Young fumed. 'I’ve sat on this bench now for 40 years. I’ve never seen government racial discrimination like this.'

Yes, you did, or you voted while being completely uninformed which is just as bad.
Prove you didn't know it by joining folks resisting the regime. Prove it by disavowing him. Prove it by fighting for what's right. Otherwise, just be quiet.

Take a few minutes for this one—because you might need FEMA in the near future, and you need to know what’s currently going on. Or not going on.
Thank you, @repjasmine.bsky.social for telling it straight, sounding the alarm, and sharing how we can help.
