“They Changed My Daughter’s Last Name and Now She’s Gone”
“They are stealing the children… they are taking the children who are found alone.”
A desperate mother says her daughter was rescued after the earthquake, but when she went to claim her, she was allegedly told the child’s last name had been changed. The little girl has since disappeared.
She claims that many children found alone are being taken, with their identities altered.
@jemelehill It’s so odd that they purposely add additional hurdles to being Black in America, do everything in their power to make everything about us negative and dehumanize us but the moment we speak on it or highlight the obvious history we are supposedly making things up. I hate it here
Ta-Nehisi Coates: “The latent racism of the Republican Party was the kindling and Trump just lit the flame. But it’s always been there. There is a tendency to see Trump as this departure from what Republicans previously have been, but he’s not. What he’s done is taken the mask off. Trump is vulgar, that’s the difference”
#BREAKING: Lawrence: “The Trump White House has been rocked by stunning new reporting in the NYTimes that some in the White House seem to consider SO ACCURATE, that they are accusing NYTimes reporters of having obtained audio recordings of White House Situation Room meetings. Think about that. The White House is not condemning this new devastating reporting from inside the Trump White House as a pack of lies. Instead, they are in effect declaring it to be so shockingly 100% accurate that the reporters MUST HAVE audio recordings of what was said in the White House.”😂😳

In 1879, JP Morgan paid a man to invent the lie that is the foundation of modern economics.
A billionaire who helped start Amazon just exposed the whole thing on Diary of a CEO, and once you hear it you will never look at paychecks the same way again:
146 years ago, a guy named Henry George wrote a book called Progress and Poverty.
It was the first mainstream book about the rich systematically stealing from the poor, and It literally became the bestselling book in the history of the United States at the time.
The working class was reading it everywhere, and the people at the top of the economy completely lost their minds.
So JP Morgan personally brought a man named John Bates Clark to Columbia University, which was essentially the intellectual headquarters of Wall Street, and told him to fix the problem.
Clark wrote a book called The Distribution of Wealth. In it, he invented something called the "theory of marginal productivity," which claims that because markets are perfectly efficient, the amount of money you earn reflects EXACTLY the value you contribute to the economy.
If you make $15,000 a year, that's because you're providing $15,000 of value. If a hedge fund manager makes $500 million a year moving money around, that's an accurate reflection of the value he creates in the world.
And Clark literally said the quiet part out loud IN HIS OWN BOOK.
He wrote that they had to prove to working people that no matter how much they make, whether it's a little or a lot, it accurately reflects their value, because if workers ever concluded that their labor was worth more than they were being paid, they would revolt and destroy the entire system.
That was the whole point. The theory was built to prevent a revolution.
And it worked so well that it got absorbed into mainstream economics and is STILL taught as a foundational principle to this day.
Every time a CEO tells you "the market decides your salary," they're repeating a framework that was literally commissioned by JP Morgan in the 1800s to convince you not to ask for more.
Nick Hanauer, the billionaire who told this story, also shared the numbers that prove why it matters right now:
The median full-time worker in America earns about $60,000 a year. If that same worker had maintained the same share of GDP they held in 1975, they wouldn't be making $60,000. They'd be making $120,000. That gap goes all the way up to the 90th percentile. If you earn $180,000 today, you'd be earning $250,000 under the old distribution.
The ONLY people who benefited from 50 years of economic growth were the top 10%, and the vast majority of that went to the top 1%. That is trillions of dollars every single year that used to be wages for ordinary working people and now sits in the accounts of the wealthiest people on the planet.
This happened because of policy. Tax cuts for the rich, deregulation for the powerful, and wage suppression for everyone else, all justified by an economic theory that was invented specifically to make you believe you deserve exactly what you're getting.
And the craziest part is that GDP growth rates in America were 4 to 4.5% for decades when workers were included in prosperity. As soon as the neoliberals took over in the mid-1970s and implemented these policies, GDP growth fell to 3% and eventually to 2%.
Including people in the economy doesn't slow growth down. It's literally the thing that CREATES growth. And the theory that convinced the world otherwise was a hit job paid for by one of the richest men in history to keep workers quiet.

Thomas Massie: The Epstein scandal is “deeper and darker” than anyone imagined.
“It’s bigger than Watergate.”
“It’s bigger than Iran-Contra.”
“It’s not about Joe Biden or Donald Trump.”
“There are degrees of evil here that we’ve never seen at this scale … ”
“Our government was compromised by wealthy, connected billionaires, and by Jeffrey Epstein himself.”
“At the age of 14, these girls that were being sexually abused by Jeffrey Epstein were told if they could go find another girl to take their place, then they wouldn’t have to be sexually abused.”
“And some of them took that deal.”
“It’s one thing to be evil to a child.”
“It’s another thing to get a child to do evil.”
“The light sentence that was given to Jeffrey Epstein in 2008 that allowed him to victimize hundreds of more women, we want to know, why was he given that light sentence?”

82 years ago, on December 1st 1944, African soldiers who fought and bled to help defeat the Nazis were massacred by the French army at Thiaroye massacre after demanding the salary they were promised. They survived Hitler, only to be murdered by the empire they defended.
This is the history that Trump, MAGA, and all the Republicans don’t want to acknowledge or have their children be taught. The reason why is because they want to rewrite the history of their ancestors and teach a watered down inaccurate version to the masses.
The Mau Mau were one of the most significant anti-colonial movements in Africa. The Mau Mau influenced Pan-Africanists throughout the Diaspora including Malcolm X and the Rastas in Jamaica. This is an example of how interconnected our struggles have been.
Chaos in Alabama: Republican State Senators rammed through a bill to advance redistricting while tornado sirens blared, the chamber was being evacuated, and the livestream went dark.
When this is how they pass it – that tells you everything you need to know.
