60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck, struggling every day to keep their families going.
The result: working class people die 7 years earlier than the rich.
We need an economy that works for all, not just the few.

Trump could have used Washington's immense leverage over Israel to force Netanyahu to honor the ceasefire agreement and allow aid into Gaza. Instead he let the IDF lay siege to Gaza and started bombing Yemen for Israel, because he's a warmongering Israel cuck.

The IRS recovered $1.3 billion in unpaid taxes from wealthy tax cheats, which is why an unelected billionaire is hyper-focused on gutting the agency.
It's not about efficiency, it's about making sure the richest Americans don't have to pay their fair share.

Quick economics lesson:
Tariffs are taxes that people in one country pay to buy goods coming from another country.
Tariffs = taxes.
Those tariffs on Canada & Mexico? WE are paying them. He’s literally taxing us to punish foreign countries.
That’s not America first, it’s America last.
