While all eyes are on the nominees…has there been any press about the US joining the Geneva Consensus?

It’s a statement on women’s health and “rights.” Other signatories are (mostly) places where women are horribly oppressed.

The US signed on this week.

If you’re feeling despair today, I understand.

But Trump’s second term will expose a reality that's been hidden from many Americans: the raw, stinking power of the American oligarchy.
