Dark looming reality, but only if we the people DONT act. We will not be peasants or prey!

Read The Hartman Report.
The bombs are falling on Iran this week, Kash Patel has fired the FBI experts on Iranian sleeper cells in America, and people are speculating that Trump’s trying to provoke an Iranian attack on the US to justify blowing up November’s elections. Somewhere in the wreckage of what used to be America’s functioning national security apparatus, the ghost of Ronald Reagan is grinning.

I’ve been doing my progressive program on SiriusXM, Free Speech TV, and radio stations nationwide for over two decades, and every time a Republican runs for office promising to “run government like a business” — Reagan‘s favorite meme — I tell my listeners exactly what’s coming next:

— Tax cuts for the morbidly rich,
— Gutted regulations that had been designed to protect average people,
— Privatized (profitized) public services that will make billions for corporations and eat our tax dollars,
— incompetent management of government agencies and our economy,
— And, soon, a slow-motion disaster that the rest of us end up paying for.

We’re living through that disaster right now, and it’s accelerating.

And figuring out why ain’t rocket science; it’s one of the GOP’s oldest scams that relies on public ignorance. Here’s what, since Reagan gutted aid to public education (20% cuts in his first year), they don’t teach in Civics classes anymore: businesses and governments have fundamentally different purposes and are run in fundamentally different ways.

A business exists to maximize profit for its shareholders. A government exists to provide services, protect rights, and ensure, to quote the Constitution, the “general welfare” of its people. You can’t do both at the same time: they’re not even on the same spectrum.

When you try to run a government the way, for example, Jack Welch ran GE, you don’t get “efficiency.” You get cruelty dressed up as cost-cutting programs for average people and massive subsides and tax breaks for giant corporations and their morbidly rich CEOs.

Reagan started this particular con back in 1981, arguing that government was “the problem” and that corporate-style management was the solution. What he was really up to was laying the ideological g by @acitizenking

Adam Kinzinger a conservative shares his own faith journey and dance with the Evangelical & fundamentalist Christians and how it fits in this moment of Trump & MAGA 's war w Iran.

In MHO this is a manufactured war based on false prophecy led by a false prophet aka the antichrist and chief. Adam doesnt go that far, but skirts up to it. by @acitizenking
