When Trump was sworn in, Elon Musk's corporations were under more than 32 investigations conducted by at least 11 federal agencies.
Most of the cases are now closed or likely to be closed soon, and the federal agencies are being defanged by DOGE.
Funny how that works, huh?

Remember: If unions didn’t matter, powerful corporations wouldn’t spend millions of dollars every year to stop them from forming. Keep up the fight.

The 100 lowest-paying major US corporations spent $522B on stock buybacks from 2019 to 2023.
Buybacks artificially boost share prices and inflate CEO pay.
The typical worker at these companies earned just $34k.
Meanwhile, the average CEO was paid $14.7M.
See the problem?

87% of jobs at Amazon pay less than $20 an hour while half of its warehouse workers struggle to cover food and housing costs.
Meanwhile, Jeff Bezos saw his net worth increase by $7.9 million an hour in 2023.
Is this the "free market" Bezos is so desperate to defend?

I heard this rumor too.
I keep hearing rumors that witches are organizing to curse Elon Musk. Anyone else hear that? I would hate to start a baseless rumor and have people spreading it across social media, of course.

Hi, it's me again. THIS IS A COUP. AN ACTUAL COUP.
Not a drill, not a test, just a COUP. We are experiencing a coup in the United States, and the fact that we're not acting like that's an emergency is a problem.
IT IS DAY 38 OF THIS COUP.

So increasing the minimum wage to a livable wage is “socialism”?
But Amazon union busting, keeping wages low, and forcing workers onto public assistance while its founder increases his net worth by $7.9M an hour is the "free market"?
Perhaps this could be a WaPo opinion piece.
