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.

“So many things have shocked me about the past 100 days. Even for me, even the person who was saying it’s going to be so bad, it’s much worse than even I thought.” I spoke to the Guardian’s podcast:

Booker: Do you think we got the right to vote for women because a bunch of men on the House floor got together and said “on the count of three, women get the right to vote..” That’s not how it happened… Change doesn’t come from Washington. It comes to Washington.

Bragging about being “close to a trade deal” with South Korea is a joke—we already have one: KORUS—a free trade agreement signed in 2007 & updated in 2018. Nearly all tariffs are already gone. PS— Bessett sounds like a terrible negotiator. “We’ll see if they actually follow through.” Clown show.
