For years we've heard from the right about "welfare queens" and other so-called "freeloaders" pulling one over on the government. But actually, it's the wealthy who are the real freeloaders — pulling one over on us all by skirting their taxes. Where is the outrage over that?

Donald Trump’s latest plan slashes taxes by $3.7 trillion, while piling $2.4 trillion onto the national debt. Citizens foot the bill, as oligarchs fatten their wallets with gilded grins. A classic shell game, repackaged for the elite. #3E

If Musk & his pals are so concerned about increasing the national debt in Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill, why don’t they cut the $664 billion in tax breaks for the 1%; the $420 billion in tax breaks for large profitable corporations; & the $150 billion in increased military spending?

BREAKING: Linda McMahon just embarrassed the entire Department of Education. She told Congress we ranked “very low” in reading and math in 1979. Senator Markwayne Mullin had to stop her and say: “We were number one.” You can’t fix education when you don’t even know its history.

Harvey Milk served his country honorably — first in uniform, then in public office. Taking his name off this Navy ship sends a clear message, and it’s one of disrespect and cruelty.
