What we are witnessing for this second term is an administration that's much smarter than the first term.
They have people who are much more capable.
They spend the last four years prior to coming to office studying government in a way in which they knew many of the pressure points to hit.
And it's having a very negative impact on American citizens.
Race is a tool, a distraction.
The tax policy bill that was passed last year was the crown jewel.
And that crown jewel was a fight that started back in 1932.
And you look forward and they were not able to radically change tax policy until last year because they were so much smarter in how they govern.
Well, I'll start with the fact that this is class warfare and race is only a tool for the most wealthiest individuals on the globe to divert our tax dollars for their profit.
But then when you start otherizing communities such as African-American community, the females or LGBTQIA, you distract people from what the fight is really about.
Who gets taxed, who's not taxed, what those tax dollars are spent on and regulatory oversight.
And so that's the real fight here.
And so as an organization, we have to stay focused on that as we also are very attuned to race being used as a tool to distract and distort, I might say, a very effective tool.
But I think Epstein files and what we are learning and still learning was a well-coordinated act of treason.
If you think about how they use blackmail to get policymakers to act outside of the best interests of this nation and our constitution, that's treason.
You know, January 6th was the act of treason.
The Civil War was the act of treason.
But the sustained effort of individuals being leveraged to undermine our democracy, undermine the stability of our economy and do all the things that we're doing is something that unfortunately we won't get a chance to hold people accountable under this administration on top of exploiting underage girls.
It is unfortunate that we're here
It's unfortunate that these files were not released under the Biden administration or for that matter, prior to that.
