The world's richest 0.001% now control 3x as much wealth as the entire bottom half of humanity combined.

56,000 wealthy individuals have more than roughly 4 billion people.

Read that back.
Just 0.001% hold three times the wealth of poorest half of humanity, report finds
Data from World Inequality Report also showed top 10% of income-earners earn more than the other 90%

American foreign policy is now an open threat to democracies everywhere.
They are determined to undermine western democracies by promoting racist extremism.
They want to crush Canada and sell out Ukraine.
We have to hold the line.

Trump said he’d make IVF available to every family for free.

Instead, he cuts Americans’ health insurance, guts the Centers for Disease Control’s IVF team, then asks companies to add IVF coverage out of the goodness of their hearts.

Another broken promise.

While Trump blusters about "law & order," his regime has dropped or halted nearly 165 investigations into corporate wrongdoing. And Trump himself has pardoned dozens of his supporters, including Jan 6 rioters and others convicted of crimes like money laundering and bribery.

There are reports that the *entire* office of special education at the US Dept of Education has been cut. These hardworking folks ensure kids with disabilities get equal access to a quality education.

America’s children deserve better than this.

The guy responsible for trying to provoke a civil war via extreme violence on elders, women, children, journalists, clergy, elected officials, workers, longtime residents, and refugees wants a Nobel Peace Prize. The same guy ordering them to murder people in boats in the Caribbean.
I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

As the White House deploys troops to more American cities to train his paramilitary recruits and the U.S. military, and declares anyone that questions his power as enemies of the state, the goal may be to trigger conflict to declare martial law and possibly cancel or postpone next year’s election.
