I’m sorry. If you don’t get paid vacation from work, you live in a third world country.
If you don’t get basic healthcare free, you live in a third world country.
If you don’t get paid maternity and paternity leave, if you don’t get paid from work and the government when you’re off sick, then you live in a third world country.
If your government doesn’t force employers to give you a contract after a trial period so your employer has certain rights to uphold when it comes to loyalty back to you as a worker, so you feel safe and secure when you work hard, then you live in a third world country.
These are the very basics we come to expect In Europe and The U.K. This is the very least we will accept.
This year I have 52 paid vacation days off from work. This would not include paid sick days, time for doctor’s appointments or paid time off for looking after my child or taking them to the doctors. Some employees like mine pay a little extra for working from home, for electric, for internet and aditional money for food for when I work. We have very good free education. Americans travel to Europe just for the free universities to study without drowning in debt whilst living in the most beautiful cities. These universities that for some subjects are the best in the world.
It is physically illegal for my employer to contact me on my day off or outside of my contracted working hours.
Some of these things which can vary country to country in Europe are the very basics of what we expect living in a European country. The very minimum.
Yet we get told by MAGA that we live wrong, and we should change our values, and that America represents freedom. And we should follow what this government administration wants.
What is it to be free? Just to be allowed to have guns? To protect what? To protect yourself from your government?
The truth is sadly, that there is no Freedom in America. I say these things above so Americans know what you should demand from your leaders, because none of the above is taught to you.
Now this is the Truth you need to hear:
For education America is 13th in reading, 18th in science, 37th in math among 79 countries.
College debt is over $1.7 trillion and average borrower owes $30,000+.
America has the highest incarceration rate in the world….
You have around 25% of the whole world’s prisoners, but only 4% of the global population….
Over 2 million people currently incarcerated in the U.S.
You have the most expensive healthcare system globally, yet it ranks #30 in overall health care.
U.S. has higher infant mortality and lower life expectancy than many developed nations by far.
1 in 7 American children live in poverty. Roughly 11 million children
90% of your wealth is with 1% of people.
America has over 40,000 gun-related deaths annually.
And even for tech… The U.S. ranks 13th–20th in internet speed globally.
Why would they tell you what you are missing?
Why would they tell you what you should demand and expect as tax paying citizens…
Seek Freedom, Seek Real Freedom. Not the Freedom They Sold You.
The one they sold to you wasn’t free.
Dear Maga: The world is laughing at you. #FAFO

BREAKING: A Russian attack drone has struck a residential building in Galați, Romania, according to reports from the scene.
Romania is a NATO member state. Initial reports indicate multiple people were injured, including several with serious injuries, after the Russian one-way attack drone impacted the building in eastern Romania overnight.
NEW: Trump’s DOJ is seeking the names, addresses, and banking information of Reddit and X users who criticized the administration’s deportation policies, per Bloomberg.
The subpoenas came from the US Attorney’s Office in Washington, led by Trump ally Jeanine Pirro. The users still haven’t been told what crimes they supposedly committed, and their lawyers say it looks more like an effort to scare and silence critics than a real investigation.
Bruce Springsteen appeared on Stephen Colbert’s show tonight and COOKED Trump and his goons
“I’m here in support tonight for Stephen, because you are the first guy in America who lost his show because we got a president who can't take a joke…. and because Larry and David Ellison feel they need to kiss his ass to get what they want. Stephen, these are small minded people. They got no idea what the freedoms of this beautiful country are supposed to be about”

The 30-Year US Treasury Yield ended the day at 5.14%, its highest close since July 2007.
The Federal Reserve and Federal Government continue to spin the lie of low inflation while the bond market reveals the truth.
Iranian airstrikes have damaged or destroyed at least 228 structures across bases or sites used by the U.S. military since the war began, hitting hangars, barracks, fuel depots, aircraft, and key radar, communications and air defense equipment, according to a Post analysis of satellite imagery.
The amount of destruction is far larger than what has been acknowledged by the U.S. government or previously reported.
For this examination, The Post reviewed more than 100 high-resolution Iranian-released satellite images. The Post verified the authenticity of 109 of those images by comparing them with lower-resolution imagery from the European Union’s satellite system, Copernicus, as well as high-resolution images from Planet, a major U.S. commercial provider, when available.
A military spokesperson disputed the characterization of base damage by experts as extensive or evidence of failures, saying assessments of destruction are complex and can be misleading in some cases, but declined to provide specifics.

While everyone is chasing inflation, they’re missing the most critical part of the conflict in the Middle East and oil:
A massive, synchronized global balance of payments shock and a historically large liquidity shock
