Donald Trump and his billionaire allies are opposed to democracy everywhere.
They know popular control of government threatens their ability to rob from the people.

POLITICO: When you attack Europe, do you intend to send a message of tough love to our allies, or do you think that many of them are just weak and you don't want to be allies with them?
TRUMP: I think they're weak, but I also think they want to be so politically correct.

These are all moves for a govt that plans to strip away our rights and protections in a race to the bottom. Worker exploitation. Consumer risk. Environmental irresponsibility. Human rights abuses. All to make the rich, richer. You think Reform’s agenda of hate will make our country better? Get real.

Russia drafted a 28 point surrender plan, handed it to the Trump team, and the regime delivered it to Kyiv unedited, demanding Zelensky sign it by Thanksgiving or lose all US support. Trump and Vance then promoted the plan exactly as Russia wrote it, verbatim, on TV, online, and in person.

We spent a year investigating billionaires for @washingtonpost.com.
We found: the wealthiest 100 Americans gave $1.1 billion to influence the 2024 elections — 140x more than they did in 2000. And almost all of that giving boosted Republicans.

Other prominent politicians happened to be making Kremlin adjacent statements at the same time, the question “why” should follow them around relentlessly.
