Psst…those 1950s manufacturing jobs Trump loves so much?

They were good jobs because they were UNION jobs.

Oh...and taxes on corporations and the rich were much higher.

Trump’s agenda won’t bring back the “Golden Age.”

It’ll make the rich richer at everyone else's expense.

I was elected in 2010 with Kristie Noem. She used to be kind, compassionate, and put her faith above any personal gain.

She like so many others, is now broken

I am still on Facebook and post on it a lot because that is where a lot of rural organizing happens.

But every time I login, I have to be exposed to four or five extreme right accounts spreading disinformation before it will let me get back to my regular algorithm.

Every. Time.

The cashier at Walmart should be able to afford rent, grocers, a car payment, and have some to save on their paycheck alone. That’s not radical.

Private school vouchers fund discrimination against students with disabilities, LGBT students, non-religious students, and students of color.

Taxpayer vouchers should not be funding discrimination.

For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 1%, it can collect $13.

For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 0.1%, it can collect $26.

Laying off 7,000 IRS employees (during tax season) isn't about efficiency.

It's about making it easier for the rich to evade taxes.

Why do so many feel like they've fallen behind?

It's not because of immigrants, trans people, DEI, the “deep state,” or any other bogeyman trotted out by the GOP. 

It's because big corporations and billionaires have rigged markets and siphoned off most of the economy's gains.

The IRS Free File pilot program helped 140K taxpayers save $5.6M in tax filing costs in 2024.

Despite recent claims, the program is still running and is now available to 30M people in 2025.

Any attempt to dismantle it will enrich the tax prep industry at your expense.

If RFK wants to meaningfully decrease rates of depression, he can support paid family and maternity leave, equal pay for women, universal healthcare, and fully funded public schools.

Stigmatizing medication that treats the mental impact of a country that devalues your existence won’t cut it.

Good news, everyone! You get to do whatever you want! As long as you say you were trying to save the country, it’s all legal now.

When Trump was sworn in, Elon Musk's corporations were under more than 32 investigations conducted by at least 11 federal agencies.

Most of the cases are now closed or likely to be closed soon, and the federal agencies are being defanged by DOGE.

Funny how that works, huh?

The CFPB has returned $21 billion to 205 million consumers who were scammed at the hands of predatory banks. You can root out waste, fraud, and abuse... or you can eliminate the CFPB. But you can't do both.

Banning noncompetes. Changing OT pay rules to include more workers. Capping credit card fees. Erasing student loan debt.

All Biden Admin executive actions to help working people that were blocked by Trump-appointed judges.

The plan was always to flood the zone with shit.

Not everyone can respond to every outrage. That's on purpose. But no need to get mad at someone for focusing on stuff *you* don't think is important. Let everyone focus on what they want to focus on.

Legacy media outlets ignoring the Trump and Melania crypto scams, which at any other time with any other incoming Admin would be one of the biggest scandals in political history, shows how lost and unprepared they are for what is about to happen. They’re covering this like a reality show.

I mean the stock market created a lot of economic fakery but with crypto there’s not even a pretense of producing something useful to anyone. It’s just a pure pyramid scheme where the insiders and wealthy abscond with real cash from the poor suckers they lured into the scheme.
