Both walked away stronger. T gained legitimacy thru proximity to a socialist victor. M gained access & cooperation thru cordial tone. The system stayed exactly where it was.

The meeting showed how easily a left project that prioritizes cost of living can be absorbed into the political logic of the system it aims to confront.
Mamdani, Trump, and the Dangers of Affordability Politics
When Mamdani meets Trump on affordability, capitalism gets cheaper without becoming less exploitative.

ALL businesses must be worker owned w/ one vote each on managing the company. Imagine what it would be like. It could be the standard. How life would change.

Tyson is closing a Nebraska plant that employs 3,200 workers in order to “right-size” its business.
The meatpacking giant paid its CEO $22.7M last year, 525x its median employee's pay.
It also spent $196M in stock buybacks to reward shareholders.
Textbook corporate greed.

Don’t show anyone claiming to be ICE any identification unless they show you theirs. And even then, tell them to go fuck themselves. Do not answer them and do not acknowledge them when they speak to you. Unless you see a warrant or an ID, that’s nobody.

US Congress voted 285–98 to condemn "socialism." 88 Democrats joined Republicans, including Hakeem Jeffries.
What they mean by socialism is your access to healthcare, housing, safety regulations, and anything that benefits you instead of the oligarchy. There has been no vote to condemn fascism. #3E

UPDATE: Today a federal court blocked the unprecedented efforts by the IRS to share data on millions of taxpayers with ICE.
This is an important win for millions of people, and represents the first injunction against this unlawful data sharing.

If you know what Thiel is after, you know where this regime is headed. To put the focus on anyone else is to miss the true fight and the chance to unify against a future NO ONE wants except he and his fellow ghouls. See also: billionaire owned crypto-corpo-cristo-fascist Network States.

JD Vance was hand selected by Jeffrey Epstein's collaborator Peter Thiel, he's a replacement part incase Donald Trump doesn't make it his full term. Not a real politician or serious person, just a stand in for a South African billionaire and an Israeli-Russian pedo network.
