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.

On this date, Matthew Shephard died 27 years ago. He was beaten, tortured, and left for dead on fence for being gay. Please keep him and his wonderful mother Judy in your thoughts. And let's all work for a world where such horrific things do not happen to anyone. ❤️🏳️‍🌈

"Conversion therapy" is a polite name for something that isn’t conversion and isn’t therapy. It’s abuse.

Joly on attracting capital to Canada: "Investors are looking at different jurisdictions and thinking there may be too much risk because of instability. Right now Canada has this great potential of attracting capital from the world because of our stable democracy and our good environment to invest."

The people who want violent protests to happen are Trump, Stephen Miller, Kristi Noem, Pete Hegseth, Tom Homan, and other senior appointees in his admin. They are doing everything they possibly can to provoke people to violence and it is obvious that is what they hope for daily.

The men and women who sacrifice to serve this nation in our military should never need to stand in food lines to keep themselves and their families fed. This seems pretty straightforward.
