If we’re serious about more efficient government and better everyday life in America - which we all should be - that means actually improving government, not cutting health care for poor people and slashing support for veterans.

Say NO to tariffs

If Trump wants Americans to ”feel pain” how about raising the income tax on the top bracket back to 70%
- where it was in 1980 when America was great
- before Ronald Reagan’s failed trickle down economics lowered the rate to 28%

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."
Elon Musk says he wants to “eliminate” programs like Social Security and Medicare: “Entitlements... That’s the big one to eliminate”

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate.

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns.

Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care.

The list goes on and on.

Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

America’s wealth gap is now more extreme than it’s been in over a century. Until this structural problem is remedied, the American economy will remain perilously fragile.

Did you know David Gilmour once sold his £3 million London mansion and donated every penny to a homeless charity called Crisis? He said, "I don't need all this luxury while others are fighting for a roof."
No media catwalk, no rockstar egos-just pure generosity.
He quietly changed lives❤️

He’s doing it for free? Nope. Follow the money and see where it goes.

Elon Musk is spearheading the overhaul of the $42 billion broadband program—directly benefiting himself and Starlink.

Starting this week, we’ll all pay more at the store because of the Trump tariffs, even while he’s finalizing a multi-trillion-dollar tax cut for the wealthy.

All the bluster is meant to get us talking about literally anything else.

This is the way…

“The elected officials in Washington have to stop protesting in Washington. They have to go back to their districts…show the consequences…show the school that isn’t operating…they have to make it real.”

With social media, word will spread to neighboring districts—even red ones.

The guy who racked up almost $8T in debt during his first term has no interest in paying it down.

The federal purge underway is to allow for oligarchs to make trillions in privatization and run roughshod in a deregulated landscape.

Remember that in an oligarchy, everything is run by the oligarchs.
