Our oligarchic self-proclaimed saviors will utilize Trump and the administration’s failures to buttress their feudalistic takeover of democracy.
If they want to donate needed supplies, that is a good thing. But we need to fix our democracy, not surrender it to the likes of Zuckerberg.
These are the people, remember, whose refusal to pay taxes has helped put us where we are today–staring into the abyss.
He apparently meant doing no more than lining their cages with something other than the New York Post.
Ben Smith at the New York Times tells us that the Murdochs knew how deadly coronavirus is and did everything to protect themselves at the same time that the “news” personalities at Fox were screeching their disinformation at their elderly, at-risk viewers.
Trump is genocidal, let’s face it. In his maniacal pursuit of an illusory economic comeback, he is engineering this country’s downfall.
We can only hope that out of the wreckage new paradigms will emerge.
In the by now tried-and-true mode of right-wing hysteria, the Turtle is trying to coerce the Dems into falling on their swords and going along with his sham relief bill.
McConnell’s pitching a fit should be ridiculed by the Dems for the ludicrous sham it is. McConnell doesn’t care about the American people; his bill demonstrates that. McConnell doesn’t care about bipartisanship–he pulled out of negotiations with the Dems Saturday night.

Simon and Schuster epitomizes the way that monopolistic corporate ownership has destroyed book publishing . S & S stood by and let Bolton refuse to present his first-hand evidence because he and they thought he should save it for his book, on which they wasted a 2 million advance.
Now, true to form, maniacal Bolton, like the highly disturbed Sen. Cotton, is trying to gin up hostilities against China, as is the racist sociopath in the oval office.
by continuing to broadcast his demented hate-therapy ravings, in which he actively promotes the proliferation of coronavirus via his lies and defamatory attacks on the media–always presented without any evidence, whatsoever, of course
President Reagan convinced huge swaths of Americans living in a representative democracy that they were actually living in a police state and the government was their enemy.
But his message to the wealthy was something entirely different–I empower you to turn this government into whatever you want it to be.
