DEI, wokeness and immigrants are not why your life is worse than it should be. The super wealthy have pushed policy to benefit themselves since the 80s, causing more money to flow to them that should be going to higher wages across the entire economy.

The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) led a path of gutting and destruction of public, global health, and medical research resources, among others.
How much did it save in federal spending?
Nothing...it led to an increase

The housing crisis isn’t about immigrants — it’s about private equity gobbling up entire neighborhoods and pricing families out. Blaming immigrants is cowardly lie.

The real villains are the billionaires turning homes into profit machines.

Walmart made $20 billion in profits last year, yet thousands of employees rely on SNAP just to survive. Taxpayers are covering the gap while the company thrives. Low wages, big profits — who really benefits?

One extremely underappreciated aspect of today’s affordability crisis is that its roots lie not in recent price spikes but in the long-term suppression of workers’ pay. 5/

I wish all figures of authority cared about moms and babies. But some don’t. Some even want you to hurt. And those are the people who cast doubt on the vaccination miracle that has allowed so many of us to live longer and better.

A man rushed to the Broadview ICE facility searching for his wife. They followed every legal step, but ICE took her into another room and she vanished. He tracked her phone there when the signal died. Police told him to “look up her name online.” He sat in the parking lot, weeping, with no answers.

A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.

How to indict your political enemies:

Step 1. Appoint an AG who went to law school in a hotel
Step 2: Replace career prosecutors with an insurance lawyer who never prosecuted a federal case
Step 3: Hire an FBI director with zero years in law enforcement
Step 4: Let them cook

What a meritocracy!
Trump's DOJ Is White DEI
The Trump Administration's Justice Department is filled with incompetent, unqualified people who personify the conservatives definition of a "diversity hire."

I co-wrote Trump’s first anti-terrorism plan in 2017-18. He’s not trying to stop “left-wing” terrorism. He is staging it.

His troop deployments are a false flag — meant to provoke a response in order to justify harsh crackdowns.

This is now very obvious.

Democrats DO have good messengers who show real leadership. Let’s put those people in charge.
This is simple. Congress should not willingly pay the bills to fund the most serious assault on political freedom in our lifetime - an assault that may collapse democracy as we know it if we don't fight back.
