@timbers_tony@CalltoActivism You’re the clown apologist, excusing the rapidly declining rotting orange husk. Biden is not the president now, wish he were.
@billmaher Your righteous indignation against antisemitism was appropriate except you conveniently overlooked Israel’s threat to annihilate all Palestinians.
Is it still a scam when they’ve stopped even pretending to hide it?
It started as “private money” anonymous donors, fat corporate checks from companies with billions riding on federal contracts. A vanity project. A “legacy” ballroom.
Then came the pivot.
Suddenly, taxpayer dollars are on the table. Suddenly, Trump allies like Lindsey Graham are rushing to pass legislation so public money can “support” the project.
Support it how? By replacing every private dollar with public funds, dollar for dollar.
And what happens to the hundreds of millions already raised in secret?
Nobody knows.
And nobody’s supposed to know.
Because this was never really about a ballroom.
It’s about access. It’s about influence. It’s about building a pipeline where corporations and wealthy donors pour money into a project tied directly to the president while the president uses the power of his office to cash in.
That’s the business model.
The same companies writing checks today will be lobbying for favors tomorrow.
The same politicians pushing this bailout will later tell you there’s “no money” for childcare, healthcare, or student debt relief.
But there’s always money when it’s time to protect the interests of the powerful.
This is corruption happening in broad daylight not hidden, not subtle, not complicated.
Just a straightforward transfer of risk to the public and rewards to those already at the top.
They’re betting you’re too distracted or overwhelmed to notice.
Prove them wrong. 👀
@billmaher Pleasant surprise your choice of guests tonight. After MTG and Boebert, was half expecting you dragging out Steve Bannon or motor-mouth Kellyanne Conway. However, your soft-pillow Trump spanking will never breach his ego driven brain. Suck it up. He manipulated, you got fooled.
Harrison Ford on Donald Trump: "I don’t know of a greater criminal in history. He doesn’t have any policies, he has whims.”
RETWEET if you stand with Harrison Ford against Donald Trump!
