Trump wants Congress to pass the House GOP's version of a budget reconciliation bill that includes massive cuts to Medicaid and SNAP to pay for tax cuts for the rich. The House is on recess, so now would be a great time to call your rep and share your thoughts. (202) 224-3121

Germany's Left Party has a new goal of cutting the wealth of billionaires in half within a decade. Ultimately, they "believe there should not be any billionaires." They aim to implement a wealth tax and raise inheritance and income taxes on the rich. www.dw.com/en/germanys-...

Imagine how Republicans would respond if Democrats won the election and George Soros did what Elon is doing, vs how decorum Dems react.

Do you know how much CEO pay has skyrocketed since 1978? 100%? 500%? Try 1,085% Meanwhile, the $7.25/hr fed. minimum wage hasn't budged in 15 years and the tipped min. wage has been $2.13/hr since 1991. This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

The billionaires want you all to be divided to keep the heat off of them. This nightmare will all be over on the day that working people unite and realize that’s it’s YOU vs. THEM.

Why do so many feel like they've fallen behind? It's not because of immigrants, trans people, the “deep state,” or any other bogeyman trotted out by the GOP. It's because big corporations and billionaires have rigged markets and siphoned off most of the economy's gains.

Old enough to remember when some of the antitrust warriors who claim to be "Democrats" tried to sell us on the fantasy that Trump and Vance represented some kind of hope for corporate accountability 🤣🙄 www.lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2024/12/trum...

The world’s richest 1% have more wealth than the bottom 95% put together, according to Oxfam. There is no moral justification for this extraordinary level of inequality. It's distorting politics, rigging our markets, and granting unprecedented power to a handful of people.

🚨BREAKING: Trump's IRS pick pressed the IRS to crush the Humane Society after it backed a measure protecting dogs, according to documents reviewed by @levernews.com. Long could now target more groups - especially if lawmakers pass the pending House-passed "nonprofit killer" bill.
