Donald Trump and the now DEAD Lindsay Graham openly ADMITTED that the Ukraine proxy war is all about "making money" for the military industrial complex
Meanwhile, the NATO left still pretends we are fighting Russia to defend "democracy"
One of the funniest things in US politics in the last few years was when Cory Booker -- out of nowhere and with no discernible point -- spoke for 24 hours in a Senate filibuster.
And Dems began cheering it as brave and historic even though he said nothing and it had no goal:
The 40-hour workweek hits differently when 40 hours doesn't pay the bills.
That's the part nobody wants to talk about.
People will tolerate a lot when they feel like they're getting somewhere.
Long days. Hard work. Commutes. Stress.
But sacrifice without progress eventually starts feeling like stupidity.
Work five days then discover you still can't afford anything.
People aren't questioning work because they suddenly became lazy.
They're questioning what they're getting in return.
Prescription drugs are about to get even more expensive.
Trump is coming for Medicare Part D subsidies, which try to keep drug prices down (they're still too high.)
We desperately need Medicare for All. No parts A, B, C, or D. No premiums, no co-pays, no deductibles. Just healthcare when you need it.
New York City is on verge of ending a huge chunk of Amazon's exploitation.
Right now Amazon technically doesn't employ tens of thousands of drivers.
These drivers officially work for other companies, but in reality those companies function like Amazon subsidiaries.
This loophole lets Amazon get away with not being responsible for all of these workers — who are exposed to unsafe working conditions and experience numerous accidents and injuries.
Now the New York City Council is close to closing that loophole, and Zohran Mamdani is throwing his weight behind the legislation too.
Walmart just received a $2.9 billion tariff refund, massively boosting the company's profits.
Regular people paid the costs of tariffs by and large across America.
But now corporations are getting huge checks from the government, while working people get nothing.
Major food companies like Taylor Farms thought Trump's attacks on food safety regulation and public health agencies would boost their profits.
Now they're finding out how quickly "deregulation" can spiral out of control.
@KobeissiLetter “Keep your eye on how much the Government is spending, because that is the true tax.
There is no such thing as an unbalanced budget. 🫵🏼You🫵🏼 PAY FOR IT either in the form of taxes, or indirectly in the form of inflation or debt.”

It's crazy that everyone knows what this image represents without any context.
Think about that.
The world will always know and never forget, especially younger generations who had never seen such evil before.
