Let’s be clear: ICE injured and detained the president of SEIU California for peacefully observing. ICE picked the wrong side. The wrong state. The wrong person. and the wrong union. David Huerta stood up. And now 750,000 SEIU workers are standing up behind him. seiuca.org/press-releas...

I’m more convinced than ever now with Steve Bannon trying to throw more chum in the water. Chaos is their friend & thru chaos they distract us from evil elsewhere. Thiel is still consolidating our data, senate is still trying to kick millions off healthcare & Trump still has us in failed trade war

CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%.  Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?
