There is a simple way to find out where a politician’s priorities lie; just do as Mark Felt advised Woodward and Bernstein and follow the money. It took less than 100 days for Biden to reveal his fidelities; to the surprise of only the Blue Anon crowd and the erstwhile “resistance”, it is not on the struggles of everyday Americans. To the contrary, Biden’s objectives are the same as Trump, Obama, Bush, Clinton going all the way back to Reagan; they get elected pretending to care about us only to enrich the military-financial complex once they enter the White House.
On the average, each bomb dropped in Syria costs US tax payers roughly $1.4 million to manufacture. That final tally does not include the cost of logistics, maintenance and the endless number of consultants needed to execute a military campaign. The old adage comes to mind; when one only has a hammer, everything starts looking like a nail. This is especially true when there are profits to be reaped with each bang of the gavel. In all, the US government spent more than $10 million dollars lobbing missiles at Syria—a nation that never attacked us—with a promise to return with more explosions and mass casualties.
Biden/Harris: We won’t get involved in the fight for a $15 minimum wage in the Senate, we want to respect the rules & the parliamentarian that we can legally overrule
Also Biden/Harris: We will break domestic & international laws to bomb Syria

Bombs for Syria, bromides for the rest of us. To be honest, this shit is getting old! Every four years it’s the same thing; two-faced politicians with forked tongues whispers sweet words of nothingness as they promise to end more than two decades of war that none of us endorse. Once the last votes have been counted and they again power, they go on to perpetuate a never ending battle against the very terrorism that our government keeps incubating. It is going on two decades since the horrific Tuesday in September when our innocence was shattered and our veneer of safety was permanently ripped away. Yet, twenty years later, we find ourselves firmly entrenched in a global crusade that only benefits Wall Street and bleeds humanity.
When it comes to wars and the quest to enhance the top and bottom lines of “defense” contractors, both parties are equally malicious as they are obsequious to the demands of their corporate patrons. Joseph Mengele Biden joins a long list of harlots who bend their knees in order to satisfy their plutocrat pimps. It is truly breathtaking; this same neo-pedophile who was elected on the backs of the most marginalized quickly did an about face the minute he touched down in DC. While he showers conglomerations like Raytheon, General Dynamics, Boeing and Northrop Grumman with helicopter money, he tells the poor, working and middle-class to eat cake.
Meanwhile, the most ardent frauds in the US Capitol, otherwise known as “the Squad”, are completely silent as they swallow their collective tongues faster than they swallow the offerings of their moneyed masters. The same AOC who was supposedly cowering in fear as “insurrectionists” bore down upon her has nothing to say as Biden unleashes hell upon Syria. According to these neo-coons who dress up as Sojourner Truths, it is perfectly acceptable to blow up other nations’ capitals but it is an act of treachery—one to be punished severely—for the same chickens to come home and roost.
Let’s do a quick accounting exercise; no need to bust out a calculator or wear your green hats, this undertaking is very straightforward. With his illegal and immoral actions in Syria, Biden just revealed his financial prerogatives. He would rather spend $1,400,000 per bomb destroying yet another country than invest $2,000 per worker to rebuild America. Biden has no intention on helping out the forgotten majority, his aim is to enrich arms manufacturers while using the bogeyman of “white supremacy” and the strawman of “domestic terrorism” to manufacture consent. When it comes to faking empathy only to add on to our miseries, no one can exceed the fraudulence of Democrats.
Sit tight my fellow Americans, the bombs that were dropped in Syria were but a preview of what is to come. The past is prologue after all; Biden will follow in the footsteps of George W. Bush as he continues and enhances a war that is killing countless Syrians, Iraqis, Iranians and Afghanis in the “defense of democracy” that we don’t have here in the United States. This should not surprise us; after all, Biden voted and cheerfully endorsed the first and second Iraq wars as well as the war in Afghanistan. Meanwhile, as children are being blown to smithereens in Damascus, kids in Denver and beyond are being shredded by poverty. Maya Angelou once said 'when they tell you who they are, believe them', @JoeBiden keeps telling us who he is, how long before we believe him to be the public serpent that he is? #BidenMath Click To Tweet
