Liberal, environmentalist, artist, gardner, reader. Extremely concerned about the sorry state of planet Earth and our ability to pull our Republic out of the greedy hands of the oligarchy.

Under the banner of “innovation” and “freedom,” a coalition of right-wing billionaires, libertarian think tanks, and Trump-era policymakers are pushing a plan to seize public lands and carve private city-states out of them. They’re calling them “Freedom Cities.”
“Freedom Cities”: A tech-bro fantasy with real-world consequences for public lands
A fringe idea born in tech circles and right-wing politics is now being positioned as the next great excuse to carve up public lands.

This is the end game for Project2025 and the billionaires. We can stop the oligarchy from stealing our resources. Push back!

Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.
McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.
Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay.

2016 happened. Russia did support Trump’s campaign. Good reporters were on it at the time. I wrote it up within the larger context of global oligarchy and neo-fascism in "Road to Unfreedom."
9 years ago,House Speaker Paul Ryan, and Speaker to be Kevin McCarthy had a recorded conversation in which McCarthy says, "There are two people that I think Putin pays, (Representative Dana) Rohrbacher and Trump. Swear to God."
