Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

Repeat after me: "trickle down economics" is a disgusting lie.
It is the exact opposite of the truth.
It came about so that billionaires could:

or rather - in plain sight
ie taking the piss
wealth doesn't trickle down... value is hoovered up
