The so-called party of free speech and small government is happily supporting armed, masked government agents conducting “show me your papers” stops and brutalizing U.S. citizens.
Their real “party values” are terrorizing communities of color and anyone else who speaks out.

BREAKING: Donald Trump says his administration is halting all "payments to sanctuary cities or states having sanctuary cities."
That would mean hurting millions of Americans by illegally stopping the flow of billions of federal dollars.

The IRS is effectively unable to audit private equity, venture capital, and real estate investment firms.
Thousands of workers have been fired from the agency since DOGE and the world's richest man took an ax to it.
Now audits of these giant enterprises have dropped 80 or 90%.

After buying it for $18.8 billion, Walgreens' new private equity owner has eliminated paid holidays for all hourly workers on Christmas and New Year's.
Last year, Walgreens had a CEO-to-Worker pay gap of 410 to 1.

Around 70% of the U.S. economy depends on consumer spending. As wealth concentrates in the richest 10%, the rest of America can’t afford to buy enough to keep the economy running.

Trump says the New York Times is a “threat to the National Security of our Nation” and a “TRUE ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE.”
(Given how he uses specious claims of national security threats to justify his actions, this could be an opening salvo in a campaign to shut down the NYT or to extort money from it.)
