Texas Politician James Talarico Says Billionaires, Not Immigrants, Are Destroying America,James Talarico says billionaires are the real threat to America, not immigrants

“WE ARE FOCUSING ON THE WRONG 1%.”
Texas State Representative James Talarico calls out the manufactured culture wars dividing America, exposing how political distraction protects billionaire interests at the expense of working families.
Transgender individuals make up ~1% of the population. Muslims make up ~1% of the population. Undocumented immigrants make up a tiny fraction. None of them are cutting public school budgets or stripping healthcare.
The only 1% destroying public resources, lowering corporate taxes for their wealthy friends, and defunding public infrastructure are billionaires and the politicians in their pockets.
“They want us looking right and left at our neighbors, instead of looking UP at them.”
The biggest divide in America may not be between left and right but between those with extraordinary power and everyone else.

English Script:
James Talarico: The only minority destroying America is the billionaires. Trans people are 1% of the population. Muslims are 1% of the population. Undocumented people are 1% of the population. We are focused on the wrong 1%. Trans people aren’t taking away our health care. Muslims aren’t defunding our schools. Immigrants aren’t cutting taxes for themselves and their rich friends. It’s the billionaires and their puppet politicians. The culture wars are a smokescreen. So many of the divisions in this state and in this country are manufactured by billionaires who want us fighting each other instead of fighting them. They want us. They want us looking left and right at our neighbors instead of looking up at them. The biggest divide in our politics is not left versus right. It’s top versus bottom.
