Honoring #Labor
Something Biden was all about. No matter what else, he was of & for 'the people' - workers, laborers, families.
Trump? Labor is for the little people.... Let Sir repeat his wondrous wins!
Sick, twisted, tangential... Be it #dementia or #BrainSpurs mixed with #TrumpVirus... What a contrast between a President serving #WeThePeople & improving our lives, versus a #grifter, #liar, #felon there to take it ALL for himself!

My country is also qualified for the following
Kleptocracy
The corrupt people running SR also steal all resources of the country blind, leaving absolutely nothing for the population.
Minimum wage, Social Security in comparison to a minister salary is so large in difference it is laughableQuotes
Kleptocrats abuse the freedoms found in Western countries by transferring funds out of a kleptocracy and into Western jurisdictions for money laundering and asset security. Since 2011, more than $1 trillion has left developing countries annually in illicit financial outflows. A 2016 study found that $12 trillion had been siphoned out of developing economies.[15] Western professional services providers are often taken advantage of by exploiting legal and financial loopholes in the West to facilitate transnational money laundering.[16][17] The kleptocratic financial system typically comprises four steps according to one opinion.[18]

This it from what seem like more innocent days (!) back then in Season 1 of #TrumpVirus - before further loss of #cognitive function and 'guardrails'.

None of those officials were told what they had done wrong. But current & former agency staffers said in interviews that the commission’s work force took away a clear message: Don’t cause trouble for those industries.
The suspensions were just one of many ways in which the #CFTC, the primary #regulator of a specialized sector of the #FinancialMarkets, has been mowed down by the #powerful #business interests it is supposed to oversee, a NYT investigation found.

By contrast, large #corporations in #Minneapolis have been much less vocal about the effects of #immigration enforcement on the city, known as both a bastion of progressive politics in the #US #Midwest & a robust corporate #employer. 17 #Fortune500 companies are based in #Minnesota, including #Target, #UnitedHealth, & #GeneralMills.

"A cryptocurrency firm run by the billionaire Winklevoss twins was facing a punishing federal lawsuit. After Donald J. Trump returned to the White House, the Securities and Exchange Commission moved to freeze the case.
The S.E.C. had also sued Binance, the world’s largest crypto exchange, but then dropped the case altogether under the new administration.
And after a yearslong legal fight with Ripple Labs, the new S.E.C. tried to reduce a court-ordered penalty against the crypto firm, seeking to soften the blow of the punishment.
The agency’s pullback from these cases illustrated a wide-ranging transformation in the federal government’s treatment of the crypto industry during President Trump’s second term, a New York Times investigation has found.
It is unheard-of for the agency to retreat from a swath of lawsuits against a single industry. And yet, The Times found that the S.E.C. had eased up on more than 60 percent of the crypto cases that were ongoing when Mr. Trump returned to the White House, moving to pause litigation, lessen penalties or outright dismiss the cases.
The dismissals were particularly unusual, The Times found. Under Mr. Trump, S.E.C. dismissals came at a far higher rate for crypto firms than other cases.
And although the particulars of the crypto lawsuits differed, many of these firms had something in common: financial ties to Mr. Trump, the self-described crypto president."
