DHS nominee Markwayne Mullin is one of the most active stock-traders in the Senate β and violated the STOCK Act against insider trading as recently as last August.
He currently holds stock in L3Harris, which has millions in contracts with ICE and FEMA.
The grift continues.
How come βHow are you going to pay for it?β is never asked about endless war?

Carney: "American hegemony in particular helped provide public goods, a stable financial system... this bargain no longer works. Let me be direct. We are in the midst of a rupture, not a transition... recently, great powers have begun using economic integration as a weapon. Tariffs as leverage ... "
The power of the least powerful begins with honesty.
"while the strong may dominate, their power often relies on the compliance of the weak. By "living in truth"βnaming injustices and refusing to participate in deceptionβthe powerless dismantle the artificial strength of the powerful. "
