« «Voir les milliardaires de #SiliconValley prendre le contrôle du gouvernement des États-Unis, je n’avais pas vu ça arriver», avoue le Canadien @parismarx , auteur, conférencier et animateur du balado Tech Won't Save Us, qui présente un point de vue critique sur l'industrie de la technologie et les personnes qui la dirigent. »
Pourquoi les géants de la #tech s’allient-ils à Donald #Trump?

Is it just me… or does this look really fishy? - US Treasury Department says it will not enforce anti-money laundering law - Sounds like an invitation, doesn’t it? And after tRump said Russian #oligarchs would be welcome to take advantage of his new $5 million ‘gold card’ visa… hmm? Is the goal here to turn the USA into a haven for thugs, gangsters and oligarchs? Sure looks like it. What do you think? #MoneyLaundering #TrumpCoup #TrumpIsAGrifter

Was this #RepublicanBlowback covered in the #Project2025 playbook.
Source: @NBCNews
From the article: "WASHINGTON — House Republicans are becoming weary and wary of in-person town hall meetings after a number of lawmakers have faced hometown crowds angry about the Trump administration’s push to slash government programs and staffing.
"Party leaders suggest that if lawmakers feel the need to hold such events, they do tele-town halls or at least vet attendees to avoid scenes that become viral clips, according to GOP sources.
"A GOP aide said House Republican leaders are urging lawmakers to stop engaging in them altogether."

Ummmm... From #wikipedia:
The #WagnerGroup (Russian: #ГруппаВагнера, romanized: Gruppa Vagnera), officially known as PMC Wagner (ЧВК «Вагнер»), is a #Russian state-funded private military company (#PMC) controlled until 2023 by Yevgeny Prigozhin, a former close ally of Russia's president Vladimir #Putin, and since then by Pavel Prigozhin. The Wagner Group has used infrastructure of the Russian Armed Forces. Evidence suggests that Wagner has been used as a proxy by the Russian government, allowing it to have plausible deniability for military operations abroad, and hiding the true casualties of Russia's foreign interventions.
"The group emerged during the war in #Donbas, where it helped Russian separatist forces in #Ukraine from 2014 to 2015. Wagner played a significant role in the later full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine, for which it recruited Russian prison #inmates for frontline combat. By the end of 2022, its strength in Ukraine had grown from 1,000 to between 20,000 and 50,000. It was reportedly Russia's main assault force in the Battle of Bakhmut. Wagner has also supported regimes friendly with Russia, including in the civil wars in #Syria, #Libya, the #CentralAfricanRepublic, and #Mali. In Africa, it has offered regimes security in exchange for the transfer of diamond and gold mining contracts to Russian companies. Wagner operatives have been accused of #WarCrimes including #murder, #torture, #rape and #robbery of #civilians, as well as #torturing and killing accused #Deserters.
[...]
"Early in 2020, #ErikPrince, founder of the #Blackwater private military company, sought to provide military services to the Wagner Group in its operations in Libya and #Mozambique, according to The Intercept. By March 2021, Wagner PMCs were reportedly also deployed in #Zimbabwe, #Angola, #Guinea, #GuineaBissau, and possibly the #DemocraticRepublicOfCongo."

No sé ustedes, pero yo veo que los #oligarcas de la actualidad nombran a sus #empresas de #guerra o #vigilancia con palabras inventadas por J. R. R. #Tolkien (Andúril, Palantir, etc.) y que se gastan millones en procedimientos para "vivir eternamente, como los #elfos".
Y me da un asco terrible. Aparte de malvados y codiciosos, pésimos #lectores.

Raawwrrrr! #BernieSanders, 83, started the video by saying he's not typically "in the habit of thanking #ElonMusk."
"'But I must confess that he's done an exceptional job of demonstrating a point that a few of us have been making for years, and that is the reality that we live in an #oligarchic society in which #billionaires dominate not only our politics and the information we consume from media but our government and economic lives as well,' Sanders said."

Well, the change in tack at the Competition & Markets Authority hasn't taken long....
The CMA found in November that American Express Global Business Travel’s planned purchase of rival CWT was likely to lessen competition substantially....
But, under pressure from the Govt. it has reversed that provisional judgment and now says the purchase will not result in a “substantial lessening of competition”.
Labour; friends of the oligopolists

One of the major UK oligopolies is the concentration of auditing in the 'Big Four';
After the semi-neutering of the Competition & Marketing Authority it will come as no surprise to your that ministers are 'exploring' weakening proposed legal requirements for the Big Four to share their work with smaller auditors....
yes, its become clear that Labour think oligopolies spur growth.
But, of course if that was true the UK would not actually have a growth 'problem'
