What Would a Successful Insurrection Look Like?

Equity Doesn’t Mean We All Get Shares of GameStop
President Biden recently signed executive orders promoting racial equity. He didn’t mention equality. Is equity the new equality? Here’s what Webster has to say about it. And here’s an illustration of the difference between the two.

Locked Down Traders flush Wall Street Elite

The Accountability Project is also hard at work. Former Obama spokesman Hari Sevugan tweeted, “WH staff are starting to look for jobs. Employers considering them should know there are consequences for hiring anyone who helped Trump attack American values.”
