A Christmas Carol circa 2025
Trump is Scrooge (duh?)
All ghosts: Marley, Xmas Past, Present & Future are Epstein and they just keep haunting him.
Bob Cratchit is America.
Taylor Swift as Tiny Tim (soundtrack sales 📈🤑)
Plus a Greek Chorus of Satanic billionaires to make it feel more accurate.

Here's the original campaign mailer from 2004 created for the Tribal-led coalition by my old organization the smartMeme Collective. It was sent out to tribal members across the basin and helped launch the campaign they would lead through so many challenges for the next 20 years. 3/4

Sure terrible things are happening in America as the Trump regime drags the country further into corruption, racist terror and authoritarianism.
But resistance is rising, fueled by basic human decency, anger at injustice and now: freshly harvested PERSIMMONS! 😍

BREAKING: The ONE PIECE flag spotted at Oakland #NoKings march!
This image pulled from a popular Japanese manga is an emerging symbol of Gen Z revolutions from Indonesia to Nepal to Madagascar. And now that is has surfaced in the U.S? We can only assume the Trump regimes days are numbered.

Centibillionaires. Wtf?
How absurd that we have allowed 16 men (at last count) to amass such preposterous levels of concentrated wealth & power. This is end game capitalist pathology. Why are we allowing this rigged system to continue?
Let them henceforth be known as "Oligarchs of D-O-O-M."
