According to AP, the typical pay package for S&P 500 CEOs rose to $17M last year — an increase of 9.7%. At half of the companies surveyed, it would take the median worker 192 years to make what the CEO did in one year.  This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

“Pretending this crew is stable puts our democracy and national security at risk. Trump is nuts and his advisers prove that the fish rots from the head. We need a forceful, uncompromising coalition of decent, and normal Americans to combat MAGA’s reign of crazy!” open.substack.com/pub/contrari...

The summary roundups can be overwhelming. Read it in sections if you start feeling like it’s all too much. You can do this, we can all do this together!! #StrongerTogether open.substack.com/pub/contrari...

It's always wrong to vandalize personal property and that certainly includes Teslas, and also: your government is actively disappearing innocent people without due process, so, you know, that second one is taking up my empathetic bandwidth at the moment.

It‘s astonishing commentators think Trump is going to change his destructive course. His destruction of our nation at home & abroad is not just about retribution; Trump is preparing to seize control as our dictator. This is not about electoral process; it’s about force.

Sit and Talk - “here’s looking at you” - Is Trump vying for a world with a new political order - a trinity of tragedy - Russia, China, and the US? What “transaction” - favor exchange - with Russia - might otherwise explain Trump’s traitorous conduct? youtu.be/fYpZIneZ-1M?...
