Since 2000, political donations from the richest 100 Americans have increased nearly 140x.

They collectively spent over $1B in 2024, amounting to 1 in every 13 dollars spent during the election.

Is it any wonder why so many regular people feel like they no longer have a voice?

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market.

Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today.

Four giants control 80% of meat processing.

A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry.

The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

It would be a shopping experience free from the ecological harm done by traditional grocery stores with their plastic-wrapped produce and countless brands of processed snacks delivered by long lines of carbon-spewing trucks. 🫘

Corporate Welfare!
In 2024, Tesla reported a profit of $7.1B but paid no corporate income tax—and it's legal. Corporations are forever telling the IRS their profits are low, even as they tell Wall Street that their profits are high.

Newsom: The New Testament and Old Testament have one dominant thing in common—Matthew, Isaiah, Luke, Proverbs, go down the list—it’s about food, about serving those who are hungry. It’s not a suggestion; it’s core and essential to what it means to align with God’s will.

Not surprisingly, most of the U.S. tariffs are being paid by American companies and consumers — NOT by foreign exporters.

I’ve lived in rural America long enough to know that the entire point was to bankrupt farmers…

We are all about to find out.

In the first quarter of 2025, farm bankruptcies increased by 95%

Remember: the policies leading to bankruptcy are purposeful. Our food supply is in danger…there is no better way to bring a country to its knees than having control of its food supply.

Great looking beans in the fields too.
Then why are you providing a $20 billion bailout to Argentina and helping them cut deals with China that crush American soybean farmers?

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion, after getting $1.2 trillion richer over the past year alone.

Meanwhile, the rest of the country is getting squeezed by tariffs and high prices for groceries, utilities, and health care.

The system is broken.
