Turns out America is a lot richer than most Americans realize. For average folks to feel it the global redistribution of their wealth will have to end.
.@POTUS is right.
Snowmelt from the Sierra Nevadas and rainfall sent almost 30 million cubic acres of water into the Sacramento River Delta over the past 15 months.
Of this, only 23% was sent to productive use in farmland irrigation and homes.
A staggering 77% was sent to the ocean. The multiyear "drought" affecting most of California is man-made.
California under @GavinNewsom is full of some of the dumbest, destructive policies imaginable.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again and again
If this is how they treat us when we’re armed to the teeth, I can’t even imagine what atrocities would await us after a national gun confiscation
But then again, I’ve studied world history so I have a rough idea
1) IMPORTANT THREAD on the infamous Trump-Zelensky meeting, 9/25/19.
We all remember Zelensky looking mortified when hearing what Trump knew about in Ukraine, live, in front of the world.
Here Trump suggests that Zelensky should get together with Putin to “solve his problem”.
One thing to keep in mind as you read this -- the FBI took possession of the laptop nearly a year before the NY Post reported on it.
They knew it was real, and they were circulating disinformation anyway.
The government serve us. We don’t serve them. We employ them. We pay them. As such, the government should be completely accountable and transparent to us in all of their actions. So instead of them wanting surveillance on us, we should be surveilling them.
Instead of chasing child sex predators or terrorists, the FBI has agents — lots of them — analyzing and mass-flagging social media posts. Not as part of any criminal investigation, but as a permanent, end-in-itself surveillance operation. People should not be okay with this.
To be crystal clear my motto is live and let live. I have nothing against LGBTQ+ people or people who flee their countries in hope for a better future. But I do have a problem with political parties that play with peoples lives or manipulate kids to create more voters.
Remember when the UN said a $6B donation from @elonmusk could end world hunger, and people raged at him for not doing it?
Well, your government is spending another $50B on war and $0 on world hunger.
Mark Zuckerberg put up $500 million to interfere in a presidential election.
Elon Musk is putting up 100 times as much to save democracy.
It is a testament to the insanity of our times that Zuckerberg is heralded as a hero while Elon is vilified.
If you thought Russia controlling 5% of #oil exports was a threat to global stability, wait until you find out who controls 90% of the critical rare earth elements needed for EVs and solar panels.
