The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.
The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

Much as I would not dare to predict the consequences of this war, I do think we can summarize it thusly so far:
A smart and evil man manipulated a stupid and evil man into a war against a fanatical and evil regime.

It’s irresponsible & unacceptable to remove articles regarding the Holocaust, 9/11, cancer awareness, suicide prevention, etc., under the guise of scrubbing DEI. And fixing it just takes more time and effort. None of this helps American people whatsoever.

There were howls of protest and denial from the GOP any time we pointed out that Republicans want to cut Social Security.
Now the most powerful official in the White House goes on TV and calls it "the big one to eliminate."

Folks, #Trump is lying. He just said his plan calls for “no tax on tips, OT, or Social Security.” But the Tax Bill the House GOP just passed has absolutely none of this. Zero. Nada. Nothing.
But it does have trillions in new tax cuts for billionaires.

Over 37 million children are covered under Medicaid. Contact your representatives now.
Looks like tomorrow will bring votes on a Republican plan to fund tax cuts for the rich by slashing Medicaid.
So this is a great time to contact your Member of Congress.
