#WorkingClass perhaps some amount of income redistribution is in order. WDYT?
BREAKING: Billionaires in America now hold a record $7.6 TRILLION in wealth.
That's a $4.7 TRILLION increase since the last Trump tax scam.
Yes, wealth increase is a form of INCOME. And most of that income will never be taxed.
This is why we need a Billionaires Income Tax.

The 100 lowest-paying corporations in the S&P 500— Amazon, DoorDash, Lowe's, McDonald's—pay their CEOs 632x what they pay workers.
CEOs made an average $17.2 million. Workers made $35,570.
Guess which of those just got a massive tax break.

From 2019-2024, Lowe's spent $46.6 BILLION on stock buybacks.
That's enough to give each of its 273k employees a $28k bonus for the next six years.
Instead, it paid its CEO 659x what it paid median employees.
And we STILL think corporate tax breaks will magically trickle down?

Truth. And neither party in Congress has a position working class Americans understand
AI is coming for YOUR job and jobs all across the country.
Who will benefit from this revolutionary transformation?
Will it be working class Americans or the billionaires who own the technology?
That is the economic struggle of our time.

#AMZN #WORKINGCLASS #WAPO DEMOCRACY DIES IN THE DARK; we need more information for consumers to know how govt policies affect us. I'd rather know the tariff cost. It helps me choose American products
Dana Perino: "I thought one of the strongest takeaways was Amazon making a business decision that it was going to be transparent and show the cost of the tariff as an increase to any of the prices that are going up on its site ... this 100 days is most important on the economy."

#workingclass : watch for layoffs next. Contact your Representatives and Senators to ask for a tariff course correction.
KIMBERLY-CLARK: "We currently expect changes in the global tariff environment to result in approximately $300 million of additional costs this year. We also think it’s reasonable to expect economic pressure, especially on value-conscious consumers to escalate as we progress throughout the year” $KMB

Republicans have the litmus test of Trump loyalty. Should Democrats pledge loyalty to the rule of law and termination of all Musk contracts for conflict of interest?

Protect the #workingclass from leaders that can't come clean even with the evidence made public to all. I understand why they use #Signal -- secure when used properly. I'm made for the incompetence and the lying.
A growing number of Democrats in Congress are calling for Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and National Security Advisor Mike Waltz to be fired or resign over the leak of a Signal chat discussing a strike in Yemen.
Calls for Hegseth, Waltz ousters grow in Congress over leaked Signal chat
"The WH is in denial that this was not classified or sensitive data. They should just own up to it," said a House Republican.
