and Hillary started Third Way, with funding in part by the Walton Family.

They are republicans who have conspired to make the Democratic Party rightwing. They've succeeded.

The Waltons just gave Hillary some more money, too. The anti-union, anti-worker, anti-fair wage Walmart love that keeps on giving~

2/26~Hillary Clinton Just Received a Massive Donation from America’s Most Hated Oligarch

Do you think they give her her over $1/3 mill so she'll work against their interests?

Newly revealed campaign finance records show that a wealthy Walmart heiress gave a donation exceeding a third of a million dollars to Hillary Clinton’s “Victory Fund.”

.......Meanwhile, Bernie Sanders has harped on Walmart heirs and the company’s abusive labor practices as a prime example of how greedy corporate behavior is harming workers and costing billions in tax dollars. Forbes estimates that despite Walmart being one of the wealthiest corporations in the history of the world, the company costs taxpayers roughly $6.2 billion per year due to paying workers so little that workers have to depend on public assistance to meet basic needs.

In this video, Sanders explains the disparity of wealth inequality between the Walton family and average Americans, and how the retailer is the “major beneficiary of welfare in America.”






Its time to get the party back (& end this tragically successful long con of the American public.)
