"You and I could try and talk about this like it were economics or like it were international relations, but it's not. It's a soap opera. It's Sons and Daughters. It's Home and Away. It's Neighbours. And it's going to be a soap opera that goes on and on for the next three and a half years."

This is what oligarchy looks like:
Trump gave corporate America a $920 billion tax break.
Now, corporations like Amazon, Meta, Apple, Google & Lockheed Martin are returning the favor by giving Trump $300 million for a fancy ballroom.
That’s a pretty good return on investment.

Not being even vaguely sarcastic:
At some point, a journalist needs to ask Johnson “you regularly claim you have no idea what your own government is doing. If we take you at your word, how are you so poorly informed, and do you this level of ignorance should disqualify you as speaker?”

Q: What's your message to the 170 US citizens who have been detained by ICE? About 20 of them are children
MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know what you're talking about with the children. I haven't seen that so I'm not going to comment on it.

There's literally no reason for Congress to exist if any random freak in the presidential orbit can nullify laws and seize federal funds. All of this is plainly illegal, but Mike Johnson leads the most corrupt Congress in US history (and by a wide margin.)

Presidents? SCOTUS gives them immunity.
Corporations? SCOTUS makes it easier for them to pollute.
Billionaires? SCOTUS says they can buy elections.
But if you look Latino, speak Spanish, or work at a low wage job, SCOTUS says you can be abducted by masked agents.
The legacy of the Roberts court.
