STOP. RIGHT. NOW.

In 2024, the richest people and corporations on Earth dropped $16 billion to buy your government.
That’s $120 from every single American household — stolen in plain sight and converted into lobbyists, super PACs, and AI algorithms that know your fears better than your therapist.

Your vote didn’t lose.
It was outbid.

Democracy didn’t die in darkness.
It was strip-mined in marble hallways by men in $10,000 suits who can’t pronounce your town but own your feed, your data, and now your future.

Before you dive in: Parts 3 and 4 are subscriber-only. Dropping Thanksgiving Eve and Thanksgiving, with exclusive footage from my first interview with a surprise Big Tech collaborator. I’m telling you exactly what you need to stay ahead of the curve. 👇
