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.

As ICE terrorizes communities, remember that some of Trump's biggest supporters are private prison companies that will make bank off his budget bill.

And Stephen Miller recently disclosed over $100K of stock in Palantir, the shady data firm ICE uses to target immigrants.

Cashing in on cruelty.

Today in an interview with NBC News, Vance said that Trump was considering all of his options for deploying the National Guard to major cities, including invoking the Insurrection Act of 1807, which grants the president emergency powers to deploy troops on U.S. soil.

The future of the Democratic Party must be rooted in investing in the American people — not Wall St., corporations, and consultants.

Otherwise, Trumpism will continue to use cynicism, racism, and distrust to divide America.

We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.

When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.

Let’s be honest: there have already been several bizarre moments from Trump this morning alone that would justify invoking the 25th Amendment.

He is a seriously unwell individual.

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.

Vance could not give a straight answer to questions about:

➡️ Tom Homan's alleged acceptance of a bribe
➡️ Trump's accusations that J.B. Pritzker is a criminal
➡️ Layoffs at the CDC

If you don’t see the link between ICE and the IDF, you haven’t been paying attention. We are being asked to accept a world where whole communities are made disposable and marked for disappearance. If we accept that for anyone, no one is safe anywhere.

Dementia doesn’t judge either. I believe Trump is experiencing psychosis from narcissistic collapse and is also demented. I’m no doctor though.

Facts. I’m in a red sea of hell and can tell you these folks really don’t know 💩 because they refuse to learn. Learning and education are boundaries for republicans. 🤦🏼‍♀️ This is called sophophobia.

If you’re wondering why institutions and people keep failing us, it’s because of capitalism.

Every decision is tied to money.

Will the company lose profits? Will the non-profit lose donors? Will you lose your livelihood?

We choose money, because money is survival.

It doesn’t have to be this way.

Q: Who is Mike Johnson being threatened by? I mean, if he's not bringing the House back, releasing the Epstein files ... he seems scared

MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE: I think so ... Do I think he's really up to the task? No.

Kamala Harris: "Here in Chicago I'm told the helicopters that were descending on an American city were Black Hawks. Do you know what Black Hawks were designed to do? War. So I think everyone can draw their conclusions just based on the facts."

Kamala Harris: "The Supreme Court made the decision that the president would be immune from any of his conduct while in office. So we went into the election with this individual, Donald Trump, knowing that he would essentially be immune from any consequence for misbehavior while in office."
