MAGA needs the oligarchs to survive.

That’s why Trump fawns over wealthy donors, calling them “rich as hell” and promising to give them tax cuts.

The oligarchy, of course, loves it. Billionaires are lining up to fund him.

Here's why: If democracy dies, they both win.

55 years ago, Armstrong and Aldrin walked on the moon.

The first Apollo landing is history: closer to the first world war than to the present day.

==

Decades ago, Kris Hansen showed 3M that its PFAS chemicals were in people’s bodies.

Her bosses halted her work.

As the #EPA now forces the removal of the chemicals from drinking #water, she wrestles with the secrets that 3M kept from her and the world.
