This is how our government has been corrupted: 

1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office. 
2) Elected officials rewrite the rules in the donors' favor. 
3) Donors make a huge profit. 
4) Repeat.

For the sake of democracy, we must get Big Money out of politics.

Don't let Trump flood your zone. Stay focused. Keep your eye on what this corrupt regime is really doing — looting the government to line their own pockets with massive tax cuts and the ability to steer more federal contracts their way.

Wow. Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde fearlessly calls out Trump and Vance to their faces. This is heroic.

1/ 🚨 Conspiracy theories about the 2024 election miss the bigger picture.

The truth? It wasn’t one night, one hack, or one fraud. It was a system rigged in plain sight – right in front of us. The playbook was out in the open for years. But hardly anyone paid attention.

Here’s how they did it... 🧵

Why did the UK Government agree to sell the ghost station to an oligarch already suspected of money laundering for the Russian underworld? Why did senior Conservative Party figures accept large donations from such a man? Why hasn’t there been a full official inquiry?

So true. 💯

Easy proof you’re on the wrong side

Good morning dear phone family. It's #InternationalMensDay2024 so I wanted to highlight this 💔 I've seen the impact of suicide on loved ones left behind. If you're worried about anyone, ask if they're OK, and ask again if there's any doubt. You could save a life ❤️
Take care 🥰

Billionaire-funded neoliberal networks (like IEA ⬇️, part of #AtlasNetwork) use simple tricks to subvert #democracy and fool the masses into voting against their own interests (e.g. #Trump). Gary Stevenson, a self made millionaire trader & #WealthTax advocate, effortlessly sees through this—watch 📽️⬇️
