That's just to get their foot in the door. Then once they add in the money they get from us paying for tariffs then the real robbery begins. As one by one our Social Programs get shutdown.

i started thinking of "private equity when romney was running for pres. he couldn't quite pull it off,

petroleum, minerals and such have been given to the capitalists for decades, and they have been selling off post offices and other prime urban real estate for a while. they will get to the national parks soon enough.

But you never know. I know that I worked my buns off w/ NC GOTV so losing was a gut punch.

That said, I'm not going down without a fight.

To robbing the Treasury. The tariffs are part of that plan. Remember President Psychopath said "They make a lotta money." Building up the US Treasury on the backs of everyday Americans via tariffs and rob us blind while taking away all of our Social Programs, not just SS. It's a detailed plan and money is the endgame.

I didn't watch the video. But I will. ❤️
