Dear Joe, I know it feels really wrong to order your AG to release a Special Counsel report because that’s been a bad thing to do for so long. But the Supreme Court says it’s okay now. It’s legal. It’s an official act. So go ahead, Mr. President. It’s normal now. ~ Everyone

According to the CBO, extending Trump's tax cuts for the rich would shrink the economy over the long run. Extending the cuts would also increase the deficit by $4.6 trillion and be used by Republicans as an excuse to gut programs millions rely on. It's reverse Robin Hood.
