It’s corruption on steroids in plain sight. He doesn’t even try to hide that he’s looting US and cashing in on insider trading.
He’s the most corrupt president in American history.

I am retired public school teacher. I have always lived paycheck to paycheck. But I inherited some money. I plopped it all down on this solar installation. I just added a 5th battery module. Now I am broke, but I’ll be mostly off the grid. I am paying it forward at age 71.

Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security.

Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.

Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

Again and again, Trump’s tariffs have created higher costs and chaos. I chair the bipartisan Canadian/American group in the Senate & work with my counterparts in Canada all the time. We have always found a way to work out trade because it hugely benefits both countries. But not with this President.

This is another brutal reality that we must face. We, yes we "the people", have allowed the gestapo to take control of our lives and streets! Stop being complacent! Is this really the country that you want for your children and grandchildren?

Gary, Indiana has been without electricity for nearly TWO WEEKS:

Gary is 75% Black, over 1/3rd of Gary’s population lives below the poverty line.

This would never happen in a wealthy white area, anywhere in America.

Black people are consistently treated worse than anyone else in the U.S.

"First Draft: 🍁 It’s a Huge Scandal That Trump Is Plunging Us Into ‘War’ With Canada"

The president has opened up another front in his economic hellscape and it should be an all-consuming scandal that the GOP lets him do it.

To be are clear, Supreme Court justices write "dissents" to rulings

when they're against the outcome and wanna explain why its wrong.

A dissent is the loser justice, preserving the REASONING of why the majority's opinion is wrong.

Everyone should read Justice Sotomayor's dissent in this FCC case.
