Today the great divide is not between left and right. It’s between democracy and oligarchy.

Let me explain.
The American oligarchy is back, and it’s out of control
It’s the third time in the nation’s history that a small group of hyper-wealthy people have gained political power over the rest of us. Here’s what we must do.

Of course US oligarch Elon Musk is backing the pro-Russia, pro-China, anti-democracy remnants of the Nazi party in Germany. He's a Nazi, it's only natural for him.

Trump views world politics and diplomacy via a narrow personal lens. He determines US policy about a country based on how he gets on with their leader. Problem with that, is that Trump is inherently autocratic in his style, so he tends to get on better with dictators

It's bizarre.
The Musk/Trump regime has picked a fight with long term friend, Canada.

Is this a sign of diplomatic impotence?
Too weak to support Ukraine against a tyrant, so they kick their neighbouring ally.

Weak bully behaviour.

BREAKING: Syria’s Assad has fled Damascus as rebels enter capital.

Here’s the takeaway.

Putin has spread his military forces so thin by invading Ukraine that his house of cards is starting to crumble.

His allies are alone.

This is the ultimate fucked around and found out.

Trump will never unify the nation.
He will only rule through brute force.....because he's a rapist and a fascist.

And that's the truth.

Tax the billionaires, especially Elon Musk....whose companies have received an estimated $13-$15 billion in government contracts.

in fact, does that mean that Musk is going to cull his contracts with the Federal government as part of DOGE ??

Funny how the US government debt closely matches hole created by corporations & billionaires not paying their fair share of taxes:
$5-6 trillion a decade, or say $15-20 trillion accumulated + interest on debt: $10-12 trillion.
= $25-32 trillion.
Debt is $33 trillion.

Coincidence?

Problem solved....tax the billionaires.
Including Elon Musk....whose companies have taken $13-15 billion in government contracts.

America isn't "headed for bankruptcy," no matter what South African Michael Scott says here.

But if he's really concerned about the federal government's balance sheet, he should urge Trump to raise taxes on individuals like him and businesses like the ones he owns. Problem solved.
