Trump Stays Out of Public View After U.S. Launches Military Assault on Iran

Trump launched an attack and sent American kids to war, and then attended a glitzy fundraiser at his country club.

This is the life of the Epstein class.

We wouldn’t be where we are right now if Trump and the rest of the Epstein class had been held accountable for their crimes.

I’d rather have universal healthcare than another forever war.

Trump’s billionaire allies will now own CNN, Fox News, CBS, WaPo, WSJ and NY Post — plus 185+ local tv stations and news in 100 markets.

They also control X, Facebook, Instagram, Threads, WhatsApp, TikTok, Truth and Twitch.

This is all by design to manipulate and surveil us.

Pay attention.

Hill added $34 billion in unrequested defense program funds Congress added billions of dollars beyond the Pentagon’s budget request for research and procurement projects that receive little scrutiny.

Congress diverted an extra $34 billion in taxpayer funds to unrequested projects for the military contractors bankrolling their election campaigns.

I assume right-wing influencers are going to film themselves banging on the doors of the Pentagon demanding they pass an audit now, right?

New A.C.A. Plans Could Increase Family Deductibles to $31,000

Deductibles should be $0
Premiums should be $0
Copays should be $0
Prescriptions should be $0

We could have guaranteed healthcare with Medicare for All and save up to $450B and 68,000 lives per year if politicians answered to us instead of billionaires and corporate donors.

Just 7 health insurance companies reported $54 billion in profits last year.

Their profits are your denied claims.

Health insurance is not healthcare — it’s an exploitation of sick people designed to transfer wealth upwards.

Demand Medicare for All.

Days after $5M donation, Trump administration backs Crypto.com in lawsuit In a document quietly filed with the Federal Election Commission on Friday night, MAGA Inc., the primary Super PAC supporting President Trump, revealed that it received a $5 million donation from Cryp...

Crypto,com donated $5 million to Trump on January 23rd.

On February 17th, Trump’s administration intervened in a federal lawsuit on their behalf.

This is what a bribe looks like.

Democratic Rep. Tom Suozzi Owned Palantir Stock While Voting to Fund Homeland Security Palantir is doing huge business with the federal government as its share price soars.

Always voting to boost your stock portfolio or increase the profits of the corporations funding your campaign is never a coincidence — it’s always corruption.

👉🏻Ban stock members of Congress from trading stocks.

👉🏻Ban corporations and billionaires from buying elections.

They can’t figure out how to spend the extra $500 billion they gave themselves for the military, but cut our healthcare and food assistance because they said they couldn’t afford it.

What’s in the Epstein files is so bad, that Trump is going to release the files about aliens instead.

FYI, “Arresting and prosecuting all of the powerful people in the Epstein files would make governments and the economy collapse,” is a lie created by the powerful people in the Epstein files so we won’t arrest and prosecute them.

Trump ran on reducing the deficit, and eliminating fraud and waste…

… then he gave more massive tax cuts to corporations and billionaires that are exploding the deficit, while taking bribes and giving massive kickbacks to donors.

Do you understand it was all a scam yet?

Roses are red.

Violets are blue.

The people downplaying, covering up and protecting the predators in the Epstein files

Are complicit in all of it now too.

“there will be Voter I.D. for the Midterm Elections, whether approved by Congress or not!”

Trump’s authoritarian takeover and interference in the midterm elections under the guise of “election integrity” has begun.

This stopped being about immigration once Trump's DOJ started labeling anyone who spoke out against Trump's actions as "domestic terrorists," and they started justifying ICE attacking and killing Americans in the streets.

We all understand where this is heading.

The most disturbing thing about the Epstein files isn’t what we’ve learned — it’s that after what we've learned, those involved still remain protected, still in positions of power, and shielded from accountability.

Anyone protecting them, or downplaying this, is complicit.

Another way to phrase this is, “ICE shot someone and got caught lying about it.”

The GoFundMe For James Van Der Beek's Family Is A Depressing Look At US Healthcare "The costs of James’s medical care and the extended fight against cancer have left the family out of funds."

No one should be forced into crippling debt because they need healthcare.

Medicare for All is the fiscally and morally responsible solution to our broken, corporate greed-driven healthcare system.

Just Trump’s personal masked, armed, paramilitary force identifying people using AI and facial recognition.

This will 100% be used to identify protesters.

There’s a reason Trump labeled dissent as a domestic terrorism indicator, and why they’re buying up warehouses for more detention camps.

Could it be the:

a) unaffordable food, housing and healthcare

b) masked, armed ICE agents terrorizing cities

c) allegations of child rape and assault in the Epstein files

d) taking bribes, running scams, and grifting off the presidency

✅ e) all of the above

Trump’s allies who are profiting from ICE and his mass surveillance agenda are trying to buy the midterms for Trump agenda-aligned candidates in both parties.

We can’t protect our country if the people leading it can be legally bribed.

End corporate and dark money in politics.

Major corporations bankroll "America First" propaganda Mastercard, Deloitte, and ExxonMobil are spending millions to promote events supporting Trump and his divisive political agenda.

Mastercard, ExxonMobil, Deloitte, the UFC and other large companies are paying big money to spread Trump’s propaganda around “election integrity,” and whitewashing history, for America’s 250th.

Make supporting fascism as unprofitable as possible for them.

The best part about Kid Rock playing the Turning Point USA halftime show is that Donald Trump is named more than 38,000 times *so far* in the Epstein files — for allegations of rape, trafficking, and murdering kids; and throwing child-rape parties for his friends at his country club.

Bad Bunny should read the Epstein client list during the halftime show.

NSA detected phone call between foreign intelligence and a person close to Trump Whistleblower says that Tulsi Gabbard blocked agency from sharing report and delivered it to White House chief of staff

Tulsi Gabbard and the White House killed a whistleblower report that someone close to Trump was talking to foreign intelligence.

Trump and his allies are in the Epstein files, and likely controlled through blackmail by foreign intelligence.

The Trump administration is a national security threat.

Corporations pay taxes on profits — the money left over after their expenses, and can write off their losses.

Individuals pay taxes on income — the money before paying their expenses, and can’t write off their debt, with few exceptions.

This is what a rigged system looks like.
