What will it take for regular people to understand that if they refuse to stand up against fascism they will not be spared? Fascism is a serial killer with no restrictions on who it targets.

I don't know if it's done, but I'd say tax the individual receiving the options rather than the corporation.

And return to 90% tax bracket for the obscenely rich.

And forbid stock buy-backs. That's manipulation and was illegal.

It’s as if they’re hoping the Epstein story will somehow just kill itself.

Overnight, Trump and Republicans in Congress shut down the federal government.

They shut it down because they’re determined to strip healthcare from millions of Americans, to enrich the billionaires they serve, to continue the assault on our rights.

We must fight back.

FYI. If the Govt shuts down, everyone stays in town including the president but you’re just bored with nothing to do because it’s all messaging and negotiations.

GREAT TIME TO RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES

What's happened to the "freedom isn't free" folk?

Because while we're *paying more* for everything EVERYTHING, our rights and freedoms are being trampled.

This administration is only out to quash us into serfdom.

Priztker: if federal agents fired upon journalists and protesters, when unprovoked, what would we call it?

I don't think we'd have any trouble calling it what it is. Authoritarianism.

So let's not pretend it's something else when it happens in our American cities.

In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists when unprovoked — what would we call it?

If federal agents marched down streets demanding papers — what would we say?

Authoritarianism — let’s not pretend it’s something else when it happens in our American cities.
