I would say the system has failed us when 10 people have more wealth than 250 million Americans below them

As we see with trump money buys access and money buys tax breaks and money buys pardons and money buys legislation

And best of all Money is speech and the more money you have you can make sure the politicians will only hear your speech

The movement was better at critiquing the system than reshaping it. But it has never had this much mainstream political power.

💩 going to buy gas right now! Iran’s military said on Saturday that the Strait of Hormuz had been closed to maritime traffic, citing what it called a “clear breach” of U.S. commitments to implement a preliminary deal to end the war, according to a statement carried by state media.

The Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters, a central military command, cited the killing and the displacement of Lebanese residents from southern Lebanon, along with Israel’s refusal to withdraw from the region, as factors for closing the strait.
