So Drumpf declares at 8:05 this morning that all hell will "rain down" in 48 hours. That happens to be right before the markets open Monday. Kinda fits a pattern.

For 50 years, the median wage of hourly workers stagnated or declined while the stock market and CEO pay skyrocketed. Is it any wonder why so many feel abandoned by the system? People lose faith, and a demagogue fills the void. This is why we must fix the system. AOC is right.

One more word I expect to be used soon on top of Epstein corruption, concentration camp... Stagflation. I'm not an economist but pretty sure employment numbers tanking and prices going up is not ideal.

"He's in the process of establishing a dictatorship." It's a simple 8-word sentence. News media could tell the public that. They know it's true. They report on the various steps toward autocracy every day. But they're afraid to utter that 8-word sentence. Which is more evidence of how true it is.

“Alligator Alcatraz” is a concentration camp by every definition, and just like in Weimar Germany it is unlikely that immigrants are going to be the only group that end up in the camps. Anyone who studies history has seen where this train ends before.
