This is the predictable result of rethuglicon’s minority-enforced, corrupt policy decisions.
Policies based on their tired, feudal, bigoted, ignorant beliefs about the world… and their position of privilege, in it!

More ways to fleece his followers
More than half the drugs on the TrumpRx site have a cheaper generic version on the market.

Pristiq, an antidepressant, is available with a TrumpRx coupon for ~$200 for a 30-day supply.

A generic version is on GoodRx for less than $30 and Mark Cuban's CostPlusDrugs for $16.65.
How TrumpRx drug prices compare to generic alternatives
Patients could save more buying non-branded copycat drugs, even if they don't have insurance.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Please call your reps and tell them NOT to fund this government
Any Democratic votes to fund DHS later this month as Minneapolis is being terrorized by DHS is going to be a major slap in the face to Americans living here. Demand major reforms or shut the government down.

My thoughts today are with the security people and police officers who defended the Capitol on January 6 and have been treated with such distain since by the GOP. For them and the Democratic leadership who lived through such chaos and no doubt continue to carry the scars within. We will not forget.

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.

Medical appointment and ER wait times are not long because of immigrants. They are long because Republicans keep cutting funding for healthcare.

The men behind Trump's policies are not stupid. Vance, Bought, etc. So what is the thinking behind blocking future health care workers from getting financial aid/loans while also keeping foreign hc workers from entering the country? Are their rich kids gonna do these difficult jobs?
