Spoiled, entitled billionaire man-children are buying social media companies/newspapers and television networks and funding politicians and judges

Keeping their taxes low and regulations minimal
While we pay the price
#ResistanceUnited #wtpBLUE #DemCast #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue

When we honestly take a close look at all the dysfunction in this country...

Every single issue goes back to bad Republican Economic policies designed solely for the wealthy to gain and the working/middle class to lose
#ResistanceUnited #wtpBLUE #DemCast #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue

We achieved our greatest period of economic security for almost all classes of citizens
under the New Deal policies of FDR

After Reagan, our middle/working class now pays the price for the excesses of the top 1%

Congress
Raise Taxes on the Rich & Corporations
No Cuts to Services for Working Families

New poll shows that 68% of voters Support a Billionaire Tax to Fund Federal Programs and Reduce the Deficit

The original George W. Bush tax cuts will have added $8.4T to the national debt
2017 Trump tax cuts will add another $1.7T in debt
Moreover, the GOP wants to renew those tax cuts which would cost $3 trillion more

#ResistanceUnited #wtpBLUE #DemCast

The Bush and Trump tax cuts alone are responsible for 57% of the increase in the debt ratio (debt as a percent of the economy) since 2001 and more than 90% of the increase in the debt ratio

Rogue Citizen One ☮️

@RogueCitizenOne

The NAACP has filed a lawsuit in federal court challenging the constitutionality of a racially biased bill signed into law by Mississippi's Republican Governor Tate Reeves.

The bill creates a separate and unequal... 1/

2/ ...policing structure and criminal justice system in the whiter, more affluent, areas of Jackson.

Under the new law, judges will now be appointed by the chief justice of the Supreme Court instead of...

#SaveMississippi #TruBlue #wtpBLUE
mississippitoday.org/2023/04/21/gov…

3/ ...being elected by the district’s majority Black voters.

This bill is clearly unconstitutional and also violates Mississippi's state Constitution which calls for elected judges.

Being homeless kills people, but Republicans fight any sort of housing, rent control, or laws that might inhibit foreign or Wall Street from buying up housing and jacking up housing costs.

Guns kill more children in America than any other single cause, and Republicans want more of them, including weapons designed exclusively for use on the battlefield.

The Koch Agenda
Background I

The assault on our Democracy today, is entirely funded by the #KochNetwork
CRT, Grooming and all their crisis creation campaigns
Are just cover while they destroy Democracy Worldwide

#ResistanceUnited #wtpBLUE #DemCast #DemVoice1

Almost all of the current Republican policies stem from the teachings of John Calhoun a Slaver and Fierce advocate for the protections of the Self Titled Aristocracy of the South
Democracy for all was abhorrent to them

#ResistanceUnited #wtpBLUE #DemCast #DemVoice1

Southern Elitists felt their economic gains threatened by the civil rights movement
How would they get cheap labor?
They sold the public on “Protecting our Southern Way of Life”.
Although only the top 1% benefited

Dems have varying beliefs
but do base those beliefs on reality and facts

Republicans base their beliefs on delusional conspiracy theories stoked by Fox and #KochNetwork propaganda

Gradually, then suddenly
Republicans are systematically destroying American democracy with the clear objective of replacing it with strongman authoritarianism, a American version of what Benito Mussolini called fascism.
#ResistanceUnited #wtpBLUE #DemCast #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue

Gradually, then suddenly
In Chile, Pinochet (with help from Nixon) had already infiltrated and gotten the loyalty of both the police, the army, and the civilian paramilitaries he’d spent the previous few years nurturing.
#ResistanceUnited #wtpBLUE #DemCast #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue

Gradually, then suddenly
When Chileans poured into the streets, Pinochet swept them up and held them in the national stadium, where 1ks were tortured, murdered, or simply disappeared.

Instead of using their tax breaks and record profits to raise wages and invest in their workforces, greedy price gouging and/or union-busting corporations are enriching executives and wealthy shareholders.
#ResistanceUnited #wtpBLUE #DemCast #ProudBlue #DemVoice1

Stock buybacks mostly enrich top corporate executives and other wealthy shareholders. That’s because about 90% of all corporate stock is owned by the richest 10% of Americans; and half of that is owned by the top1%
#ResistanceUnited #wtpBLUE #DemCast #ProudBlue #DemVoice1

Not surprisingly, some of the worst corporate actors that utilize stock buybacks are also price gougers and union busters. Padding profit and CEO and bank accounts, while adding no value to their businesses

Do Republicans have anything to offer the working class?

So far, all we’ve heard is that they want to turn Soc Sec over to the NY banks
& Medicare over to the big insurance companies
Suppress wages and deny union rights
#ResistanceUnited #DemCast #wtpBLUE #ProudBlue #DemVoice1

Do Republicans have anything to offer the women of America?

So far, all we’ve heard is that they want to send them to prison or administer lethal injections if they get an abortion.
#ResistanceUnited #DemCast #wtpBLUE #ProudBlue #DemVoice1

What have R's done for climate change?
Republicans are still taking $Ms from the fossil fuel barons every year and denying climate change even exists,
& actively trying to sabotage any effort to move to a green economy.

Ironically #KochNetwork ALEC calls this bill anti discrimination
while actually discriminating against investors
who dis-invest their companies from Fossil Fuels
But atypical of all Republican/Koch network propaganda
#ResistanceUnited #wtpBLUE #DemCast #ProudBlue #DemVoice1

The real intent of these bills is to continue FF profit and greed models that exist worldwide today
Claiming FF are unfairly treated while achieving massive profits the last 2 years thru price gouging consumers
#ResistanceUnited #wtpBLUE #DemCast #ProudBlue #DemVoice1

Under the guidance of Koch propaganda
these ALEC bills are part of Americans For Prosperity

The GOP Plan to roll out their
“Path to Prosperity” Corporate agenda in this Congress
ALEC is a Koch corporate mill bill machine
& Americans for Prosperity is a
Koch/Billionaire dark money disinformation outlet
#ResistanceUnited #wtpBLUE #DemCast #ProudBlue #DemVoice1

The Path to Prosperity agenda only benefits the top 1%
With GOP false claims it was TCJA tax bill in 2017 that created the growth we have today
While ignoring the fact that in 2019 our economy was already sinking
#ResistanceUnited #wtpBLUE #DemCast #ProudBlue #DemVoice1

The TCJA is a corporate mill bill from ALEC, and the true beneficiaries have been the corporations and the wealthy in this country who own the large majority of stocks.

Koch 1% libertarians are actively changing our Democracy to a government with no regulation or oversight for corporations
While slowly shifting the burden of taxes to the 99%
#ResistanceUnited #wtpBLUE #DemCast #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue

When Ronald Reagan was sworn in and promised to destroy our government because it was “the problem,” we wondered the outcome, now we know,
4 decades of wealth inequality and the steady destruction of our Democracy
#ResistanceUnited #wtpBLUE #DemCast #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue

Before Reagan, we’d passed the right to unionize which built the middle class
We passed unemployment insurance and safety to protect workers
Soc Sec largely ended poverty among seniors, and Medicare provided health care

Few understand how The Federalist Society is the Koch/Billionaire judicial wing and much more

Rolling the country back to pre-new deal economics is their only mission

AstroTurf Organizations within the Koch network each promote issues and advance multiple Koch agendas at once
CRT for example is to undermine public education-promote privatization and enrage their voters to vote R
#ResistanceUnited #wtpBLUE #DemVoice1 #DemCast #ProudBlue

Koch libertarians could honestly care less about CRT as an issue, but knowing they could twist the facts, play to the racists and pick up Republicans votes by twisting the CRT message..they went all in in Virginia
#ResistanceUnited #wtpBLUE #DemVoice1 #DemCast #ProudBlue

Faux grass roots appearance of the Anti-CRT campaign is another trade mark of Koch networks
However, it doesn't take Herculean effort to uncover the same old billionaires behind the scenes, despite their attempts to hide
