The avg American make 2 million dollars in a lifetime and Elon is giving 45 million a month to the political campaign this shows what is wrong with the USA. This wealth inequality is insane.
The direct result of Citizens United.
The title of which completely belies it's intent.
He hires so many people; let us not judge him on his wealth alone. Bezos can be judged perhaps by how many mom-and-pop businesses he put out of business during Covid, with the help of Washington, and Fauci---some of his employees basically have to work in refrigerators, without breaks, I am told.
Isn't there a limit to how much money one person can donate?
@@Happy-uy5wc Not for Super PACs. That's essentially the point of donating to a Super PAC over the campaign directly.
Elon is not fit to govern Mars.
The main purpose of the Supreme Court is to uphold and protect the United States Constitution and the rights and freedoms written within it. The Constitution clearly states that the judges on the Supreme Court are to be politically unbiased with absolutely no ties to any political party or individual.
Justice Brown says what?
No one cares about what the constitution says, neither dems nor republicans.
What has been written and accepted as a humane form of government has been tilted off it's axis by money,
thanks to the passage of Citizens United by the Federal Election Commission and the Supreme Court in 2010.
Why what is happening is wrong and should not be happening
@@arthurlevin Justice Brown begs to differ…
Money rules who rules America
*rules the world
What a ghastly state of affairs in American Politics
This looks like the last straw. There is no coming back for Democrats once trump is in the white house.
Corrupt news media
A mess!
Who needs political talent and understanding when you have money and a persuadable voter base. "I don't care about you, I just want your vote."
Could it be that racist/fascist birds of a feather vote together?
and they can say "At least he's honest..." on that one!
@@ArleeStarr Racism is basically a combination of erroneous information and irrational fear. If you're so full of emotion that it's overloading your cognition, you're more likely to hand over power to charismatic authoritarians.
Students united ❤ worldwide
And vote for Trump and save America and your family
This show is gonna hafta start calling itself "Democracy Then."
Democracy For Now.
It should have been calling itself that since Citizens United.
The name was chosen as a demand for democracy, now. Why can't you wingers understand that?
I like, “Democracy When” a show where there’s time to focus on envisioning the world we all claim we want; peaceful, compassionate, empathetic, equitable, just, and Free!
Many slow learners can't grasp the meaning of the title. So sad.
American is government is appointed by the rich for the rich..
Sure but Most of us are rich. Because it’s easy when you work hard in the USA.
USA still has extreme assistance to poor people. Like so extreme that you could be a total loser your whole life and live like a king from 200 years ago. You just don’t realize it because they are so ungrateful
Very easy considering how USA stole all that the land @markblaze4909 .
Where is democracy??? 😢😢😢
@@markblaze4909 Maybe 50+ years ago, the vast majority are really struggling now. Inflation is crazy and they lie about the true rate of inflation, the cost of everything continues to go up and examples have shown the TRUE COST of groceries has tripled in the last 4 years. Many of us work hard, are not rich and don't think it's easy, we're just barely surviving.
The Israeli journalist Ben White wrote the book “Israeli Apartheid A Beginner's Guide”..
The whole point was Jack Smith wasn't picked by President Biden to make it more fair. 😮
What?
@@lancelothogben1297he was saying the reason for a special Council was so that there would be no influence by Biden . Smith was an independent outside the DOJ.
Jack Smith was Trump's appointee (see Jan 23 notes)!
@@Braveheart.22 yeah but just-us Clarence the Clown now tells us it’s unconstitutional in this specific instance.
@@lancelothogben1297 Special Council has to be voted on and approved by the Senate and Jack Smith was not, that makes it unlawful.
Beyond Occupation Apartheid, Colonialism and International Law in the Occupied Palestinian” A book written by Virginia Tilley, an American Professor of Political Science...
One more to add to the list. Thanks!
The dismissive attitude by Bidens and his advisors or handlers like Blinken, toward the Palestinian people is heart breaking. Just tragic, how could it be anything less?
@@rosecorley6748 "Traitorous" and "Pure Evil".
This is not how a democracy survivez
Survives? Democracy is dead.
Antisemitism , it’s a TRICK, we always use it” In August 2002 former Israeli Minister of Education Shulamit Aloni was interviewed on the radio and television program Democracy Now. During the interview, she was asked:
Question: Often when there is dissent expressed in the United States against policies of the Israeli government, people here are called anti-Semitic. What is your response to that as an Israeli Jew?
Shulamit Aloni replied: “Well, it’s a trick, we always use it. When from Europe somebody is criticizing Israel, then we bring up the Holocaust. When in this country people are criticizing Israel, then they are anti-Semitic..
That’s the absolute truth. It’s a distraction tactic.
@@misterwill3625yes, but doesn't longer work, entire world knows who they're, truth can't longer be hidden!! We all see with our own eyes!! Unfortunately for them this card can't longer be played!!we see what's going on in Gaz period 😢

Thank you Amy for bringing world news rather than news about Trump only like most media are doing. Please also don't forget about Haiti in your reporting. Great job!!

More spin then the O'Reilly factor had...
Retire Goodman!
The Trump family is absolutely inspiring! God bless our former and future President, Donald Trump. Spread love, and not hate darling! Why not pray for the family of the fire fighter that lost his life? ❤
Great coverage thank you very much
We should call it deep sea strip mining.
Much respect Gambia.
Bet that Elon dumping sacks full of money to the Trump campaign makes all the Tesla owners very proud!
Well..now we know..let's see what's under that tape on that ear..the ear is made of gristle..there's no blood..anyone with pierced ears or noses knows this..I've watched men get plates in their earlobes..no blood..sure it up..why were his shoes ooff?..why didn't he say "!ouch!"..or something?..why did he say "fight!"..fight whom?..and why would he say "wait..wait.."because according to the"ear is a gristle" theory..Donald j didn't get shot..couldn't have..no shot..no ricochet..nothing..so where did the fake blood come from?..was it in his shoes?..is that why donald j took them off?..to get the packs out?..then donald j goes to see wrestling?..and jumps on the net?..his demeanor is not that of a person getting shot..or is sad over the dead and injured..that boy was paid to miss while donald j did the rest with bloodpacks..there should be a diversion on his ear the exact size of the alleged round and the wound should be seared by the spin..sure it up..something doesn't make sense..at all..Donald j was right though..putin is a genius..and viktor orban knows it too..doesn't he donald j..
You are a nutcase....
Thanks Amy for dire reports in these difficult times.
Going to the bathroom at 75 is a truly difficult time.
Thank you Amy and DN! You consistently provide the most comprehensive news reporting in the U. S.

Girl the RNC police popped somebody in our city MILWAUKEE. TALK ABOUT THAT. You need to show real people in Milwaukee and not just Career Protesters from out of town. The real poor people in Milwaukee are locked in the ghetto, fenced out from your convention and now an out of town police popped a REAL Homeless Milwaukee resident because of this convention. Talk about it.
Biden for President!
@@mwoods7696 He trash too
@@mommagotit3073 Yes he is. Kennedy is good but I guess he's too honest so he had to run as an Independent. The Democrat Party used to be "The People's Party", these days it's the "The People's Money Party".
@@user-sk3pi1me2f Kennedy sounds like he swallowed 30 ash trays wrapped around bricks. 😭 I ain't got time to hear his bs either. 😂
Anyone that is confused about what is happening, simply does not care.
On the flip side, most people are confused because MSM and all of the talking heads are pushing propaganda instead of trying to do unbiased research and report hard facts. You have to turn to Independent Journalists to get the truth and Social Media works real hard to suppress them so it does take a lot of effort to actually know what's going on. You can't just turn on a screen and get facts like you could 40+ years ago.
Musk is really desperate to get back Trump back on X.

please shade some light on stories about CEMETERIES of numbers hold by ISRAEL..
13:20 Was the US the world's largest exporter of natural gas before the Nord Stream pipelines were blown up?
Nooo don’t ask Democracy Now about Russia 😂
@@lobotobot154 I am putting the question out there because it would have been removed if I wrote a factual statement.
Why not ask the accurate and truthful news program? DN! has covered the pipelines being blown up. Even interviewed Seymor Hirsch when he wrote about who the culprit was.

From the river to the sea, it was Palestine BCE. Plus 3500 years before that.
Lol that Giuliani archive footage cracks me up every time! Thanks for everything you do Amy and team!
Vance may have been a Marine , but he was not Combat Arms; rather someone Combat Arms people pejoratively call REMFs, as in Rear Echelon.
Ope, your ignorance is showing. JD Vance was a combat correspondent. He was in the midst of battle regularly. Oh, and by the way, every marine is a rifleman.
Yup, another resume builder looking to work for the 1% 1:44 somewhere in politics. Unfortunately, we have one of those as well; Pete Buttigieg.
@@arcanondrum6543 Ahhhh yes, the awful practice of resume building. The kryptonite of leftists.
Bro, you're a brokie mouthbreather. Stop pretending.
@@TA23576 People with great careers hear by word of mouth about new opportunities. Their experience doesn't fit on a resume.
Ahh but to you, a resume is just a pretty piece of paper with buzzwords on it, empty inside.

Do you know the definition of Paradigm?
It means something like the basis of an idea.
@@Happy-uy5wc... there we go !
So why you don’t question trump in interview come on we Better
Why would Putin negotiate anything when there's a real possibility that Trump could get elected President in November?
And Trump will negotiate, unlike Biden, who was put in office by the War Machine.
You assume a Trump presidency would favor Putin.
Trump doesn't do war. Look it up. Oh ya JFK had an executive order on his desk to pull out of Vietnam never got signed.
@@premitive1 It is a conclusion that even Trump’s eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., has appeared to confirm, saying in 2008-after the Trump Organization was prospering again-that “Russians make up a pretty disproportionate cross-section of a lot of our assets.”
“And this is what he (Eric Trump) said. He said, ‘Well, we don’t rely on American banks. We have all the funding we need out of Russia.’ I said, ‘Really?’ And he said, ‘Oh, yeah. We’ve got some guys that really, really love golf, and they’re really invested in our programs. We just go there all the time.’” -- The Hill
That ear bandage is theatrically large.
That's what I thought too.
And the entire event screams preplanned.
Rudy super stressed. 148 million payout.😂
And most people won’t donate even if standing on the street with a sign.
Actually, I watched the interview with Rudy just this morning! He is quite calm and is super proud of Donald Trump....remember, that guy that survived an association attempt! God bless America and Donald Trump!

At spreading leftist propaganda
Hello Amy ✌🏻
We should not allow millions upon million of dollars to any political party.
This is not a good sign.
Russia and China did not attend because they were not invited! Tell the whole reason.
China was invited.
Zelensky wanted China to attend. To tempt Beijing, Ukraine even agreed in advance to take some of the most sensitive questions off the table-such as the withdrawal of Russian troops from internationally recognized Ukrainian territory.
@@ClownCarCoup I stand corrected; I did not think China was invited. While Zelensky may have wanted China, I am sure the US & UK did not. Even though it was supposed to be a peace conference, I am also sure the US & UK did not want Russia there so Zelensky could make a deal. Zelensky could have probably gotten a similar deal to the one he turned down in, I believe, 2022. The US & UK want Ukraine to fight to the last Ukrainian.
@@williamschmitt-matzen4052 stop spouting propaganda. Zelensky has already said he’s like to see Russia at the second peace conference
@@ClownCarCoup Do you really believe the US and UK will favor Zelensky getting a peace deal similar to the one offered in the past? They are the ones who told him to turn it down. Look at what it has cost Ukraine since then. Go back into Russian history and also their response when JFK said take the missles out of Cuba or prepare for war. Why do you think Putin would do less than Kennedy?
Thank you! 💙 Vote blue!

Ohhh, he’s got a boo-boo.
Trump adding street cred to the list of his false superlatives in his and his follower's heads is nauseating.
@@Will_Moffett Most of USA thinks he's a hero.
@@georgemetesky5519 Most of the USA thinks is an arch villain. He's a very polarizing figure and the most hated person in the country. I'm not saying his opponents on the other side are any better, but it is a fact that Trump is hugely disliked and those who think he is a hero are, while significant, a minority.
Still, not a Van Gogh.
