Millions of people are living paycheck to paycheck.

They're struggling with the cost of food, housing, and other basic necessities.

How does Trump respond?

By creating fake emergencies to distract from his failures to address very real issues impacting everyday Americans.

This is how our government has been corrupted:

1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office.
2) Elected officials rewrite the rules in the donors' favor.
3) Donors make a huge profit.
4) Repeat.

For the sake of democracy, we must get Big Money out of politics.

Do NOT believe Israel if it puts out lies about allowing some humanitarian aid in.

If they allow any food at all, it will be barely a trickle, just enough to ease up the criticism.

NOT NEARLY enough to stop the famine.

Israel is all gaslighting all the time.

Their excuses for shooting people

DOGE isn't just cutting vital government services.

Each federal job loss could also result in the loss of at least one additional worker in the private sector.

Working people having less money in their pockets to spend stifles local economies.

What’s “efficient” about that?

I'm old enough to remember when polio ripped through the globe and put my friends into iron lungs.

We dutifully lined up at school to get vaccinated. We eradicated the disease. We protected the common good and saved lives.

After Trump embraced crypto, Coinbase gave millions to PACs backing pro-Trump candidates.

After Trump's win, they gave $1M to his inaugural and listed his meme coin.

Now, Trump's SEC has dropped a major lawsuit against Coinbase.

See how this works?

Kroger and Albertsons claimed they wanted to merge into one grocery giant in order to keep prices low.

But after the merger was blocked, they approved spending a combined $10 billion on stock buybacks.

They each paid their CEOs over $15 million in 2023, by the way.
