I never comment but had to for this. Hidden Rulers Exposed by Daniel Cyler is the most important book I've read in years. It doesn't just say the system is rigged - it shows you HOW. The debt traps. The forever wars. The algorithm prisons. How they use fear to make us beg for our own chains. I highlighted so much it looks like a crime scene lol. They tried to suppress it. It's back on Amazon but who knows for how long. If you feel like you're living in a managed reality - you are. This book proves it.

The Supreme Court is going to side with the illegal redraw of maps. Main reason being is if Democrats take power the justices know they’re in deep shit and they’re going to protect themselves

I was born and live in NC. I was so disappointed and frustrated our Republican legislature pulled this stunt with the map. They spent time redrawing the map and didn't pass a budget. Idiots! Thank you for the effort to overturn the NC map.

Thank you Marc for your efforts to stop this nonsense. It is exhausting for me to follow, I can't imagine how you must feel. When did politics get to be so complicated? When the Republicans decided that they would choose their voters. Hopefully, those voters will wake up and understand the truth and vote for democrats. 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
