Just a thought: the AOC/Bernie/Fight the Oligarchy tour really needs to make its way down South to the deep red “confederate states,” as a Threads user suggested.

The administration promised a second “Golden” (Gilded) Age. Is this part of the robber barons’ scheme to push out competition and public infrastructure advances? 🧐

The GOP passed a budget resolution tonight that will gut Medicaid, SNAP, and other vital programs — as 60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck.
Why? To finance more tax cuts for the top 1%.
We have socialism in this country for the rich, harsh capitalism for everyone else.

Anytime I’ve traveled overseas and returned to the states, it’s a shock to be confronted with ads for pharmaceuticals on the TVs and around the airport.
Amen to that.
I think it would make a big difference in our health if we banned Pharma ads from America like the rest of the world does.

Get the story straight! WTF is going on?!
“Musk is described as a ‘Senior Advisor to the President’ as a special government employee and is not an employee of DOGE.”
“Musk is described as a ‘Senior Advisor to the President’ as a special government employee and is not an employee of DOGE.”
White House says Elon Musk is not in charge of DOGE -- legally, anyway
Elon Musk is not the legal administrator in charge of the "Department of Government Efficiency," the White House said in a court filing, and has "no actual or formal authority" to make decisions.

ER visit in Alta, Norway as a tourist from the US. Paid at the self-serve checkout kiosk. Total cost 562 NOK, or just under 50 USD for the entire visit.
In the US, that may cover the Tylenol they give you before sending you a 5 figure bill.

This is what happened when the USSR collapsed. The government broke. The only actors left were oligarchs. And bit by bit they bought the valuable assets of the government - industry etc. became oligarchs & made Putin king.
It’s a hostile takeover, business usurping government & democracy.
