UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year.

Trump demanded Texas and other red states redraw their congressional districts to rig the midterms in Republicans' favor.
California fought back by redrawing its map to balance out this power grab. Now, Trump’s DOJ is suing California.
The hypocrisy is endless.
