āThe billionaire class has sought to convince those making $30-an-hour that their enemies are those earning $20-an-hour. They want the people to fight amongst ourselves so that we remain distracted from the work of remaking a long, broken system.ā -Zohran Mamdani

NEWS: Labor Party has won Australia's national elections today, defeating their conservative opponents. So Labor will continue leading the country for a second term. The right was leading in the polls in 2024 and early 2025, when the lead reversed āĀ in part due to Trump, just like in Canada.

Casualties in World War II: Soviet Union: 26,600,000. United States: 407,316. And the Russians got to Berlin first. So, no, the United States did not do "more than any other Country, by far, in producing a victorious result 'on' World War II." That is just propaganda.

Paramount, the owner of CBS, has been accused of meddling in reporting being done by 60 Minutes. Why? It needs approval from Trump's FCC to be acquired by Skydance ā a media company founded by the son of billionaire Trump-backer Larry Ellison. Always follow the money.

This is a rhetorical question, as I know the answer and so do you: why was an elected Black Democrat charged with a crime (one he pleaded guilty to) for falsely pulling a fire alarm, but an elected white MAGAāNancy Maceāwon't be charged for what is now confirmed as a False Report to Law Enforcement?

A recent analysis found that when Trump imposed tariffs during his first term, companies who contributed to Republicans were more likely to be granted tariff exemptions. Trump's corporate donors won't shoulder the cost of his trade wars. It's crony capitalism at its worst.
