The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

Read that back.

When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

This is a great video to explain Judge Perry’s recent ruling. She just handed Trump a civics lesson for the ages reminding him the military defends the Constitution, not his ego. Protests aren’t rebellion; they’re democracy’s heartbeat. 💗

Electricians often put the box in upside down to indicate which ones are controlled by a lightswitch.

The federal food program helping more than 1 in 4 young children access fresh produce, milk, and formula will run out of funding next week.

Over 5 million children could lose food assistance — all thanks to the Trump-Republican shutdown.

The cruelty is endless.

I will give it all the attention it deserves.

One flush ought to do it.

🚨🚨🚨The intensity here is indescribable. The reference post (to follow) indicates the gravity being similar to that of “Bloody Sunday.” A harrowing parallel. 1/2

The RIFs that began Friday will reportedly cut 65% of CISA’s 2,540 employees, one of the dumbest and most dangerous moves imaginable. CISA defends the nation’s cyber and critical infrastructure. Destroying it now only makes sense if you’re afraid of election integrity.

I never hear of any penalties for the prosecutors when they violate the law in this manner. And they should be at least censured, if not outright disbarred.

Nixon also thought of the presidency as imperial. "Well, when the president does it … that means that it is not illegal." -- in an interview with David Frost.

The Imperial Presidency is a work by historian Arthur M. Schlesinger Jr., published in 1973. It explains how Nixon thought he was a king.

What it opens up, is a secret air force base on American soil. Its not the Qataris...its the ability to bring in military flights from all corners of the globe. What could possibly go wrong? There would likely be no accountability as there is at any US Air Force Base, which are All Accountabiity.
