I have believed in democracy for a long time, and don't like to see cynical forces attack it.

Header picture is a screen cap from Indivisible reading "If Trump Wins Repeal the Affordable Care Act kicking tens of millions off their insurance. Expand tax cuts for the rich. If we win Continue lowering drug prices and healthcare costs. Close tax loopholes to ensure ultra-rich and corporations pay their fair share of taxes.

Alito & Thomas violated SCOTUS' "code of ethics," which requires them to recuse from cases with even the appearance of a conflict of interest.

Alito flew 2 insurrectionist flags.

Thomas' wife tried to overturn the election.

If that's not the appearance of conflict, what is?

"code of ethics"

"code of ethics"?

More like lack of ethics.

Rich donors are paying as much as $300,000 per person to attend a Trump fundraiser in San Francisco today. What do they expect in return for their money?

My guess is 100 to 1 on their investment.

The FTC found evidence that a US oil exec colluded with OPEC in 2021 and 2022 to cut production and drive up prices.

The price-fixing scam is estimated to have cost Americans an extra $2,100 per year.

When I say corporate greed is driving inflation, this is what I mean.

Guess what they hate? When you travel by muscle power, electrons, ride the bus/subway, or stay home.
Don't feed the greed!
