No way I live In Torrance
Finally the comment sections are seeming more united, its us agaisnt them yall. forget the parties theyve been the problem all along
Doesnt look like theyre “ reeling” to me. Usually in the real world if something like this happened , people would be shaken and pale and a look of at least intense concern on their faces. These people looked HAPPIER than before it happened. Very strange.
We live in a time where 2 administrations.. One red and One blue have both failed to address any real systemic problem in this country. There is no longer any public trust in the system/people that govern us.
Our
Debt outweighed our GDP for the first time , our leaders both terms "ONE RED ONE BLUE" have failed by not focusing on the American people or the state of this country.
Regular people follow the law while we've not really seen a single politician/mega Corp have any real punishment for breaking it, all while our own congress basically acknowledged on live TV that so many people are involved in the Epstein files that the entire country would grind to a hault if they actually had to make them answer to the law .
That is a complete system failure of the leaders of this country red/blue doesn't matter.
Our politicians are owned by mega corps and the American people are being farmed at a rate so high that the definition of the American dream doesn't even exist anymore .
Even in my area houses that our parents bought for 180-220k in 2009 are 550-600k with intrest rates so high you would be dead before making that payment.
Renting a 2 bedroom apartment in 2026 cost more than the generation before us mortgage did.
Wages in this area have not changed since 2009. Minimum wage here has been 7.25 since 2009. The gap has been allowed to get bigger than it has ever been before period. The pay people make and the average cost of living is not even in the same dimiension anymore .
We've had 2 administrations who could of made a law restricting how much a company can charge for standard/essential goods vs cost of production to stop the farming of people . Hasn't happened yet. 1 law could of been made over the past 8 years that caps how much over you can charge for a essential item vs it's cost of production . Say you can't charge more 25% for a product vs production cost. Greed needs a lid.
Houses should be marketed on their actual value and a house is made of materials that degrade over time. So why is the price of time rotted wood, brick, glass being labeled 3 times its value 10 years ago 😂.
When a normal citizen runs out of money you go to jail, evicted/for-closed , you loose your things , or you go bankrupt. When a bank runs out of money the gov prints them more with quite literally our children's future as payment. Even my job I make my company +4600 a day and I'm given $240 daily that's like 6%…
Per hour needs to go in the trash. People need to be paid 30% of the overall revenue They generate a company per week . Even that is a 30/70 split.. still let's the company have the greed on the transaction. The fact humans are not getting more than 10% of what they individually generate a company weekly is straight robbery. Our ancestors flipped this country upside down over a 3% tax and you people let the corps ,leaders, our jobs , and these realtors/banks triple the cost of everything your touch while paying you less than 10% of the money you make them. That's robbery and how sedated this population has become is honestly sick af.
People should be in the streets demanding a better life , better governing of our people, complete overhaul of pay , laws that restrict companies charging 300 times the cost of production for a product or service , and the pay scale needs to be reinvented completely to reflect fair pay direct percentage of a person service to work across the board.
Our leaders are killers , rapists , thieves , liars , and money launderers. Our tax money isn't being used to improve our lives anymore or the gov services we receive. The pay – cost of living scale is completely broken.
Stand up for yourself , your neighbor , your friend, and your family or this country is done.
Doesn't even need to be violent not 1 bit. Every person in this country could say we aren't paying another dime in taxs ever again , never working for 💩 PAY ever again , never purchasing a product for 300% of its value ever again, and in less than a week they would have to meet public demands or face COMPLETE system collapse . It's that simple. People have 100 times more power than they realize and it's why the system is designed to keep you to tired, broke, and scared to make a stand.
It's why there is red vs blue , a skin vs skin, religion vs religion . We are all the same animal with the same basic needs and the world has been overcomplicated to a point it's ruining the original value of even living.
To put it straight :
THEY HAVE NO RULES , NO LAW, AND COMSUME US TO LIVE LAVISH LIVES ! While we are subject to tax, laws, overpriced living ,underpaid wages vs service actual provided by the worker.
THERE IS NO IF ITS 2 TIERED IT IS 2 TIERED.
The government exists to ensure companies never own human beings through labor and prices that outweigh their value 10* over. They have joined together. Hold them accountable , ask question, and protest ACTUAL PROBLEMS WE ALL FACE AND DO IT WITHOUT VIOLENCE. If they use violence on you for doing that then it's time for violence but we haven't even taken step 1 as a people. Do better America my kids and your kids deserve better. A human shouldn't be working 60 hours a week and still living paycheck to paycheck. Greed has killed America and it's your job as a citizen to meet it head on with as much tenacity as you can humanly muster.
Jesus turned water into wine to prove he could do it
And Alcohol is a blessing from God to be used for Medical purposes ( EXAMPLE. NYQUIL FOR WHEN YOUR SICK ) and in Isreal 2000 years ago. Clean Drinking water was not easy to find. So there was a low grade Alcohol content for wine. That you could drink lightly even with your Breakfast if you had no clean drinking water
HOWEVER IN BOTH THE OLD AND NEW TESTAMENT IT SAYS TO STAY AWAY FROM STRONG DRINK AND BEER. AND YOU ARE A DRUNKARDS IF YOU DRINK ALCOHOL TO BECOME INTOXICATED. FOR THEN YOU ARE LIVING IN SIN WHICH YOU CHOSE TO DO
AND THEN YOUR SOUL WILL BE PUT TO SLEEP AND YOU WILL NOT FEEL GUILTY FOR HAVING THOUGHTS OF FUST FOR THE FLESH AND THAT IS THE PL THAT YOUR HEART WANTS YOUR EYES AND THOUGHTS TO DWELL ON
RHIS IS THE ACT IF AN UNRIGHTEOUS CHRISTIAN
Why does she stand like that? She standing sideways wtf?
Can we eat the rich now?
Psyop BS
Seems like they’re really trying to kill trump huh what’s this third attack now JUST RESIGN BRO
This is just a ploy to justifying spending $2,000,000,000 on some grand new ballroom. Trump wants to leave his legacy in the White House, which is undoubitly the safest place ion Earth.
The White House even has underground fallout shelters , with 13 inch thick blast doors, and an escape tunnel, which leads outside.
How did we make it 150+ years without some fancy ballroom ?🤔 This is a ridiculous waste of tax payer money.
This just shows man the media has to stop reppin up violence against the man for god sakes there was already three attempts against him
@0:01 ya, reeling the public in. Caught hook line and sinker.
Staged again clown 🤡

What's up with the Pocket Stance?
00:33
What was security doing?
Wonder who will get the academy award?
Yo Trump I’m not a religious person and yet I’ve spent my life helping those less fortunate . You are the damn Antichrist pretending to be religious ( poorly ) and don’t care about anyone but u.
He wasn’t worried there would be casualties despite not seeing what happened as it wasn’t in ballroom. He was more concerned that he needed a ballroom after this . Probably because this was staged.
there are no "plans to reschedule the event," the dinner event — if the newsroom here were reporting facts would have noted — is a private event that POTUS was a guest at. WHOTUS has no say in when it would happen, where or anything else.
Who did they have securing the Elevators The 3 Stooges, Marx Brothers and Barney Fife??? This is not a simple mistake, this was DELIBERATE! Every Single Guest Should Have Been Vetted!
Wrong scenario, you don't point your gun to the public, and turned your head away from the target 🎯💯 👎
I’m waiting for lip readers to report what was actually said.
Best President in History 💪🏻🇺🇸
Secret service was NOT paying attention. Very BAD JOB.
