Just a random reminder that over 50 members of Congress collectively own millions of dollars in defense contractor stocks.
They stand to personally profit from wars that enrich these contractors.
Make no mistake, this is legalized corruption.
Watch how they vote this week.

The United States was founded on the premise of the clear separation of Church and State. Our forefatherβs wisdom understood how important it was to keep religion out of politics, out of our schools, and out of the government. Never forget!

Elizabeth Warren: "I am a hard no on a supplemental. This is not a war the American people want us to engage in. This is not a war that makes us safer ... No. No more money. The only thing Congress has the power to do is to stop actions like this through the power of the purse."

A year ago, I was willing to accept that some MAGAs were good people who were merely misguided.
But now that Trump has shown us his true colors, anyone who is still MAGA is simply, purely fucking nuts.

4 Things Billionaires Are Doing With Their Money to Influence Elections
If it wasn't obvious, our campaign finance system is severely broken. It's time to put power back in the hands of everyday people by overturning the disastrous Citizens United decision.

Being a sane American right now: It's like the United States is riding in the back-seat of a car and Dad is driving drunk. Mom is the Republican party, riding in the passenger seat: She knows Dad is completely sloshed but she goes along with it because she's afraid of getting beaten up again if she says anything. Some of your brothers and sisters are excited because they like carnival rides and think speed and chaos is entertaining. But you feel slightly insane because you're the only one in the car who understands the danger everyone is in and no one seems capable of stopping the maniac at the wheel.
I can so relate to this.

Mike Sommers, President and CEO of API, stating: "Encouraging to see momentum building again around permitting reform negotiations in Washington. America is the world's top producer, but we canβt deliver affordable, reliable energy if critical infrastructure is stuck in red tape. The time for durable reform is now."
The American Petroleum Institute's #1 priority is "permitting reform," a euphemism for letting energy & tech data center industries bulldoze over our lands, waters, & communities.
This is about money & power. Not climate. Not our economy. Not even energy.
Money. And power.
Act accordingly.

Yes Trump lies a lot. And you will also if you repeat what he says that is not true. Media has done this too often without pushing back & saying it is not true. They are helping to spread the lie if they do not fact check it & say it is a lie. Trump says outrageous lies for media attention.

Trump and the MAGA GOP Cult don't care. They are trying to demonstrate they can do whatever they want. They want to scare people to not even try immigrate to America (unless they are very wealthy and "white" of course.
