🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨 Big time shenanigans going on in UTAH‼️
Utah speaker of the house Mike Schultz owns hundreds of acres of land right near the Stratos data Center site‼️
THIS IS JOURNALISM‼️
I wrote my thesis abt the 100,000+ Japanese American citizens & their immigrant parents being rounded up and placed in “detention centers,” “internment camps,” & “concentration camps.” Told myself I would’ve stood up against that. So I’m standing up to same thing happening NOW!

Fun Fact: A 2% tax on the top 5 wealthiest billionaires would generate more revenue than the entire yearly budget of USAID.
I think I found the efficiencies DOGE was looking for.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
A 2% annual wealth tax on America’s 5 wealthiest billionaires would initially generate $25.8 billion.
USAID’s annual budget is $40 billion.

Harris: Here is a detailed account of all my plans.
Trump: I have a concept of a plan.
If that is not a perfect summary of being a woman in any career…
My 2 takeaways from tonight’s debate:
1) If I don’t vote for Trump, humans will eat my chihuahua.
2) According to Donald, Kamala Harris “supports abortions after birth.” – at Utah, USA
So @eliMcCann just told me he’s going to name his next dog “Barbara Jean” after me and I think my life is now complete – at Utah, USA
I’ve been talking with @LaurenMattNews of @HiddenTrueCrime for months now about a book project, and yesterday I finally got to meet her in person! She is an amazing woman and I relate to her on so many levels. Stay tuned for what we’re cooking up together.
