Two children died in Buffalo over the weekend, in a fire caused by a space heater.
You know who doesn't die in fires caused by space heaters?
Rich people.
There is public assistance for heating, but not everyone can get it, and the right still wants to eliminate the benefit.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.
The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.
Read that back.
When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

My husband said Josh Allen had a Russian touchdown. I asked him how it differs from an American touchdown, but he seems to have trouble articulating it. #BuffaloBills
