We are living in the Second Gilded Age.
Remember: the Supreme Court handed Trump a permission slip to break the law...with both hands...and not lose a minute of sleep.

And the Justices who blessed it? They're operating at a level of corruption we haven’t seen....since judges took bribes in livestock.

Trump supports criminal billionaires because he is one.
First Republican to call out Trump’s corrupt pardon of the man who helped funnel over 500 tons of cocaine into the U.S.

If the Venezuelan sailors were enemy combatants, then the 2nd strike is a war crime.

If the Venezuelan sailors weren’t enemy combatants, then both strikes are criminal murder.

It’s that simple.

Thank God his people are so fucking incompetent.
DC jury acquitted the Sandwich Guy. Lindsay Halligan can’t even bring an indictment because she’s not legit. Jeanine Pirro couldn't get a conviction because she’s incompetent.

As the judge pointed out, incompetent Pam Bondi completely screwed up the appointment of Halligan in violation of the law.

Q: Stefanik has called Mamdani a 'jihadist.' Do you think you're standing next to a jihadist right now?

TRUMP: No, I don't. I met with a man who's a very rational person

I thought it was strange that we almost went 24 hours without a new Mills scandal. That countdown has ended.

The President of the United States just called for my arrest and execution.

In these moments, fear is contagious, but so is courage:

Just to review, in the last week the President of the United States:

- Refused to condemn the rise of Neo-Nazis in his party
- Tried to block the release of further evidence he sexually abused children
- Encouraged the execution of Congressional Democrats

Those are just factual statements.

Amazon announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year.

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

Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

Increase in productivity since 1979: 87%

Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32%

Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.

As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.
