Carlin spoke truth. They are coming for all of it $$$

And they are going to get it. Your retirement savings, your stocks, your Social Security, they want it ALL. Their goal is to steal ALL the wealth from the middle class. Can you imagine if Harris or Biden or Obama ran a campaign with the message: "Me and my billionaire buddies are going to smash the U.S. and Global economy and you are going to lose ALL of your social safety nets, including your personal wealth and retirement. Oh and by the way George Soros is going to be my Co-President in an ill-defined role with no legal authority, oversight or consequences whatsoever. In fact he is going to move into the Lincoln bedroom. Vote for me!!!"

and the media and the a large portion of the US population think this is normal or they can't be bothered with thinking about it.

Trump actually said it in so many words. "There will be some pain." or something like that.

What the hell, man????

I firmly believe there is no way that he won the 2024 election fairly and that he outright stole it. This just doesn't happen organically. Trump wants the whole country to suffer for the indignity of having to go to court and having his mug shot taken.

Somehow I doubt that some 300+ million people are going to be totally without any money, any stocks, any bonds at all. I likewise doubt that a relative handful of Repubs are eager to see us starve to death.

have you not been following??? Right now hardly anybody is putting up a stink but there are people being snatched up from the streets and disappeared without due process. His Reichsfuhrer in charge of immigration wants to assign Amazon efficiency to scooping up more immigrants to send to El Salvador.
