    >On Friday, a nonprofit forced the Trump administration to unseal a damning complaint lodged by the Biden-era Federal Trade Commission against Pepsi for colluding with Walmart to raise food prices across the nation. New un-redacted information claims FTC Chair Ferguson and his colleague Mark Meador (both Trump appointees) were hiding the mechanics of Pepsi’s and Wal-Mart’s price fixing.

    Given the vast number of different sources of products that have raised their prices, and the total secrecy of the involvement by the Democratic conspiracy, I am truly impressed by their competence.    

    Donny should be taking notes.

    He talks to his followers like they’re the dumbest motherfuckers on that planet…which they are because they don’t even realize he’s doing it. It’s incredible.
