Oxfam says the world's billionaires now sit on $18.3 trillion of wealth. This growing inequality warps the global economy and also threatens democracy, says Oxfam executive director Amitabh Behar. "These billionaires are now not happy being rich and richer. They really want now political power."

Trump is threatening wars with NATO and Venezuela for the same reason he’s at war with the American people: fascism must always be on the march. Authoritarians are good at offense, but bad at defense. The only strategy for combating the Epstein crisis is literally going to war.

Who among us hasn't sold stolen oil and stashed the profits in a bank in the country that bailed out our son-in-law's building at 666 Fifth Avenue?

Frey: "I think the initial impetus to come to MN was to arrest & deport a bunch of Somali people. They got here & realized the Somali people that would be deported are all citizens. Then they turned their ire toward our Latino community & others. These are communities that make Mpls a better place."

Frey: "An individual from a car that was in the middle of a street was detained. ICE left the car in the middle of the street. The car wasn't even in park, so you got it just rolling down the street w/nobody in it. It could've hit anybody, including my own family. This is not about safety"

I've noticed that ICE agents keep yelling "18 USC § 111" at people filming them. I'd like to see the memo they all got on that talking point, and I'd like to know who sent it. Filming ICE or alerting your neighbors to their presence doesn't violate § 111.

A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you." The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?" "Learned what?" she asks Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

at some point we're gonna have to have a real conversation about why we're still paying federal taxes to a regime that isn't using them to help anyone, but instead is using them to brutalize us

This goes out to everyone that keeps poking me to "not forget about the Epstein files". I want you all to know that I'm capable of doing both. That's all.

President Obama couldn’t create a healthcare program without full scale condemnation. President Biden couldn’t forgive student debt without calls for him to be prosecuted. The orange felon covers up child sex crimes and bombs other countries and republicans are pleased.

Trump's got a taste for blood.

Trump on Sheinbaum: "The cartels are running Mexico. She's not running Mexico. We could be politically correct & nice and say, 'Oh, yes, she is.' No no. And I've asked her number times, 'Would you like us to take out the cartels?' ... something is gonna have to be done with Mexico."

Venezuela exchanges dictators.

FOX & FRIENDS: What do you see as the future of Venezuela's oil industry? TRUMP: Well I see that we're gonna be very strongly involved in it. That's all. What can I say. We have the greatest oil companies in the world.

So for months they have tried to blame the entire fentanyl crisis on Venezuela and the indictment only mentions cocaine, which they pardoned a different guy for weeks ago

Carla 🔵 reposted

It’s not about drugs. If it was, Trump wouldn’t have pardoned one of the largest narco traffickers in the world last month. It’s about oil and regime change. And they need a trial now to pretend that it isn’t. Especially to distract from his sinking under Epstein and skyrocketing healthcare costs.

Why pardon the president of Honduras?

U.S. “accidentally” kidnaps Venezuela’s president in a freedom-related misunderstanding. Officials stress this was not an invasion, coup, or oil grab — just a very aggressive concern for democracy. Pedo Trump is now “evaluating options” for the next humanitarian snatch-and-grab. Greenland or Canada
