They are just flat out stealing from us. If they are cutting our healthcare, retirement, emergency assistance, research and a shit ton of other things then what are we seeing for it?
The Grift Is Global—And the Wealthy Are Playing With Fire
Let me be clear: I say this not out of rage, but from lived experience and a lifetime of watching patterns—both in business and in power.
It’s ignorant—deeply ignorant—for the wealthy to believe bullies ever stop. Crime families don’t quit. There’s never “enough.” That’s the nature of power addiction. And what we’re seeing with Trump is no different. Courtesy of independent networks like the incredible MeidasTouch, I’ve reviewed so many of his cases—and it’s all textbook: intimidation, jury tampering, judge tampering. You don’t need a law degree to see it. You just have to look.
Trump has aligned himself with Putin and operates with the same mafia, cartel, and dictator playbook. And it’s not complicated: unless a handful of ultra-wealthy families wake up and voluntarily put 50% of their income back into this country, they will lose it all. Whether they’re overthrown by MAGA extremists or the citizenry—it doesn’t matter. The outcome is the same.
This reminds me of something I saw often in my career: wealthy owners buying toys for their friends just so they could stay in the inner circle. That kind of transactional loyalty is as gross as it gets. It creates rot at the top, and it spreads.
There are so many conflicts of interest now, it’s hard to tell what’s even enforceable. The grift is so massive, so embedded in our systems—from crypto scams to media monopolies—that it’s easy to lose track. But we can’t.
We vote with our wallets.
Stop giving money to corporate media.
Stop shopping at Amazon.
Stop feeding Meta.
These companies aren’t participating in the solution—they’re part of the problem.
And the biggest grifters of all? Elon Musk, Donald Trump, and everyone orbiting that regime. This isn’t conspiracy—it’s commerce. Global commerce.
Their reach is now global through the crypto grift, and nobody’s paying attention to the fact that even our own government isn’t taxing or tracking it.
Meanwhile, Americans are being stripped of everything we built. Our rights. Our institutions. Our future. All so a handful of billionaires can fly private and play kingmaker.
This isn’t about left or right anymore.
It’s about right and wrong.
And it’s time to stop pretending we don’t see what’s right in front of us.
Crazy times, right? Almost as crazy as a white supremacist rapist trying to tell women what to do with their bodies — not for morality’s sake, but to manufacture more babies for their selective genocide campaign. All while defunding healthcare for the largest retiring demographic in American history. Genocide wrapped in bureaucracy.
And as they pass bills that pillage public lands and erase decades of environmental recovery with the stroke of a Sharpie, we’re watching hundreds of years of progress torched by a dyslexic criminal and his cronies — a gang of white-right “Christian” hypocrites doing the devil’s work just so Donnie can avoid prison.
Meanwhile, I’m having reoccurring dreams of marrying an immigrant just to keep her and her children safe in this country. Honestly, it’s the first time I’ve felt a real sense of purpose in a while… and all because I didn’t turn off my YouTube feed. Imagine if I was watching Fox News 24/7 — I’d probably end up like my mom: a full-blown cult member.
She married an ex-Jesuit priest who wrote his thesis on hypocrisy in Catholicism, then spent her life praying for this very moment — protesting for “pro-life” while backing the policies that destroy lives. That’s why I finally wrote her off. Love and light, right?
Divided we stand.
Just like the tech we carry — handheld isolation devices masquerading as phones. Nobody answers anymore. The “village” they promised? It’s been stolen. Probably by the same 125 dissatisfied families and 11 billionaires running Congress like a puppet show.
So I ask: who are the complicit? Do we still eat the rich in America, or did I miss the revolution?
I can’t remember. I’m getting too old for this shit.
I’m so sick of the orange trash. What I hate almost more than his fuckery of our constitution, is the time I have to spend defending it. Calling congressman and senators, protesting, sending postcards, calling and texting voters (which I would do anyway). Reading all the craziness he is inflicting and personally wanting to find a way to end a life. Not mine by the way. Ahhh!!! You guys keep my sanity somewhere on the ok side. Thank you!
