Paramount's entire sales pitch is the US government will do our bidding AND they are paying the president's son-in-law: Trump Family's corruption is magnitudes more than anything else in US history.
Jared Kushner's involvement was "not mentioned in Paramount's press release on Monday morning about its $108 billion bid, nor were participating sovereign wealth funds from Saudi Arabia, Abu Dhabi and Qatar."

fancy that
Jared Kushner is part of Paramount's hostile bid for Warner Bros. Discovery
Paramount is telling WBD shareholders that it has a smoother path to regulatory approval than does Netflix.

Oh goody. Let’s have more people high as a kite running all America’s businesses. What could possibly go wrong? 🙄
Holy smokes! If you acted like Palantir CEO Alex Karp in a corporate meeting, they would report you to HR. Just saying.

While Hegseth is sending $100,000 dollar missiles to mass murder civilians making $100.00 a month, the Sackler family who killed 720,000 Americans and started an opioid crisis made billions, and they never sniffed a jail cell. They have a billion dollar real estate empire living as kings.

This is state-sponsored murder

This is not acceptable
Pete Hegseth, the TV personality, does not have the skillset, temperament, and moral code to serve.

Demand his removal.
They’re not hiding the brutality anymore.
They want you to see it.
They want you to get used to it.👇

Reuters reached out to everyone that Trump or his subordinates singled out publicly for retribution, and reviewed hundreds of official orders, directives and public records. The result: the most comprehensive accounting yet of his campaign of payback.

An unhinged president has unhinged followers who will do anything he commands (or anything they THINK he wants to command). That is why Trump is as dangerous as he is and his Republican lawmaker enablers need to be held to account.

In June, Trump’s older sons held an event at Trump Tower where they touted a new made-in-the-USA mobile phone with an American flag on its back, plus a new wireless service called Trump Mobile.

The buyers? They’re still waiting.

Government is shut down. Chaos in airports. 42 million going hungry. 24 million face skyrocketing healthcare costs. Economy in turmoil. And the president of the United States is in the Fox broadcast booth calling plays for a football game.

I’m no great fan of the ACA.

I believe we should guarantee health care as a human right through a single-payer Medicare for All system.

But — at minimum — we cannot allow Republicans to destroy our already-broken system by doubling insurance premiums for 20 million Americans.

Protecting people's health care is worth fighting for. Stopping our health care system from going into a death spiral is worth fighting for. People want Democrats to stand for something.
