Dear America

Is anyone putting together the bill for the Trumps? Who’s got the current tally?

When this is over I want them to pay back every freakin dime we’ve paid to cover their security, travel, golf, EVERYTHING!

...WITH INTEREST

p.s. That’ll cover Healthcare for a while
For those who say Trump has no money to seize. I believe he lied about his billions & easily could have been in debt when he took office but I think he’s been profiting off the presidency in ways we can’t even imagine
Here’s some excerpts from an article
I also posted the link👇

Do the GOP fear a dancing “little girl”[Misogynist Ed Rollins🖕exact words not mine]
or
Do they fear going from a FAKE Tax of 37% that let Trump & his Fox & Friend cohorts pay NOTHING for yrs to a REAL Tax Rate of 70%?

Cause you can swear or rape women but don’t touch the GOPs💰
When did actually COLLECTING taxes from the rich & ensuring folks, who made money off this country & its people, contribute to the maintainability & improvement of the Country’s infrastructure become “Progressive”?

And when did the word Progressive become an American swear word?
If a 70% Tax Rate seems shocking it’s not~
👉Eisenhower’s top tax was 91%
👉In the 60’s it was 70%
👉Under Reagan=50%
And thats without “loopholes”

‘Coincidentally’ wage growth at this time stagnated
When the Rich keep more💰
Workers DON’T make more💰
but they DO lose Healthcare

I want so badly for us to have a YOUNG & DIVERSE Govt. But can we realistically get our ‘dream’ young & diverse govt as soon as 2020?
The damage Trumps doing will take years to repair. The first step to rebuilding is to put up a ticket that can win in 2020
Heres my thoughts👇
Last nite I had a debate about my current pick for a 2020 ticket. I know a tickets normally 2 positions but mentally I’ve expanded to 3
Here’s my ideal “ticket” at the moment
BIDEN~Prez
BETO~VP
KAMALA~Attorney General
Before you dismiss Biden as an “Old White Man” Hear me out..👇
Joe Biden may be the right “transitional” President.
I believe he’d only do one term.

His job would be to
👉Clean up the💩show Trumps left. His prior 8 yrs in the WH prepared him
👉Help pass the baton to Beto or Kamala & prepare them to be the best future presidents they can be

IS THIS RELATED TO THE MYSTERY FOREIGN STATE-OWNED CORPORATION SUBPOENAED BY MUELLER🤔
This👇picture shows Cohen & Michael Flynn entering a Trump Tower elevator 5 days AFTER Qatar Investment Authority, run by Mohamed Al-Ruwaini (pictured w/ Cohen) bought a 19.5% stake in Rosneft
Qatar’s Mohammed Al-Ruwaini supposedly bragged that Michael Flynn had NOT refused their money. And that Michael Cohen asked him for $1M. Al-Ruwaini claims they didn’t give $1M to Cohen. Coincidentally Cohen did receive a $1M consulting contract linked to a Russian Oligarch?
A firm linked to Russian Oligarch Viktor Vekselberg (Yes, Mueller questioned & sanctioned Vekselberg earlier this year)paid $580k to the same shell company that Cohen set up to pay Stormy Daniels. They also paid $250k to Trumps Inauguration fund. Were these fees & donations more?

The Suffocation of Democracy

By: Christopher R. Browning

1/
As a historian specializing in the #Holocaust, #Nazi Germany, and #Europe in the era of the world wars, I have been repeatedly asked about the degree to which the current situation in the United States resembles the interwar period and the rise of #fascism in Europe.
2/
I would note several troubling similarities and one important but equally troubling difference.

In the 1920s, the US pursued #isolationism in foreign #policy and rejected participation in international organizations like the League of Nations.

You can buy a lot for $20T. Our Republic borrowed it from a private bank. Do we have high speed railways? New bridges? World class airports? No. We have a decimated Middle East and an impoverished middle class. Do we get the scale of the Heist of America yet?
That is $60,000 for every man, woman and child in America and we have NOTHING to show for it.
Must I get even more scary? It is our income tax that is used to pay back this loan. The average household debt is $140,000 that we took because we had to pay this income tax. This means they are impoverishing us to start pointless wars while giving NOTHING in return. SCAM!!!!!

President Obasanjo once called maintaining Nigeria Airways (NAL) irresponsible. Six years later, one of his successors, despite a petition from former NAL employees appealing for ₦45 billion in severance pay, is shopping the world for an investor for a proposed national carrier.
Between a ferocious fight over revenue sharing, and ignoring the obvious on Boko Haram, bad ideas seem to die slowly, such that it has almost obscured the recognition Nigeria’s music industry got from the world’s largest music label.
The latest #BokoHaram attacks don't suggest a resurgence of the group so much as they demonstrate its resilience, capacity for strategic hibernation and stealth.

They also indicate that the financing with which it procures weapons and its recruitment remain largely uninhibited.

In 1996, not only did the Clinton team influence Russia's election to Boris Yeltsin (who collapsed their economy and made the life expectancy go down by 5 years), they bragged about it in Time Magazine.

content.time.com/time/magazine/…
Boris Yeltsin apparently was so bad at handling things, he could not pay government workers.
Sounds familiar.
If Russia had an electoral college, Boris Yeltsin would have lost a rigged election.

Couple of his tweets sparked a half-hour phone call with @APompliano about tokens and a potential role in PE. Here were my takeaways:

First, glad people like him are thinking deeply and often about the space. It's exciting to explore how a new technology could create efficiency.
The value of tokens for PE-specific use cases isn’t in decentralized accounting or the ledger. A debt-based token will carry rights and obligations like any other debt instrument. Power is in millions of people bidding on assets in realtime in a permissionless manner.
Instead of a handful of banks competing to provide financing, it could be a coalition of 5K Americans, 3K Indians, 1K Australians, etc. The retention of a portion of the tokens allows for a sharing of risk/reward.

I almost never talk about my work at Thr Players’ Tribune on twitter, because twitter is bad, but I’m breaking that rule to tell a quick story about Ryan Shazier ...
Ryan came into our office because he wanted to tell his story, about growing up with alopecia from the time he was 4 years old. He couldn’t ever remember having hair, and he couldn’t ever remember a time when people didn’t troll him for it.
But as he was telling me all these stories about kids making fun of him, he was doing it with a genuine smile of his face. Not like a fake smile. Not like “I’m a millionaire now” thing. He just seemed almost indifferent to the hate.
