Our 'leader' is Strongman Dictator handing out our formerly-protected natural resources for exploitation by his foreign Billionaire cronies.

I wonder if Al Franken would've been on every Sunday show in the AM if he were still MN Senator Al Franken?

Also, watch how quickly this outright, blatant corruption becomes a non-story in the coverage by our sack-gargling MSM ... move along, nothing to see here! What about THE SQUAD!?!

New law when I'm King...anyone that proposes building or mining anything in a national or state park will be spayed or neutered. They need to be culled from the population.

The wealth of the many transferred to the pockets of the few.



Andrónico Luksic III is the CEO of the privately-owned Luksic Group, which made most of its money on mining. His political influence is vast, with investments in politicians, banks, educational institutions, the media, etc. Antofagasta did well during the brutal Agusto Pinochet dictatorship.
Luksic, besides being the CEO of Antofagasta plc and a board member of Antofagasta Minerals, also has close connections to Banco do Chile and the Toronto-based Barrick Gold Corporation, the largest gold mining company in the world.
