Amazon has cut a combined 28,000 jobs since October. Its CEO made $40M+ in 2024

UPS has announced 78,000 job cuts since last year. Its CEO made $24M.

HP announced up to 6,000 layoffs in November. Its CEO made $21M.

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

The Epstein Files Transparency Act is a law, passed by Congress on November 19 with an overwhelming vote. Complying with it was not optional. The Department of Justice did not comply.

I want to make sure this is very clear.

Doing your holiday shopping this weekend? Prices for many of the most popular holiday gifts have risen an average of 26% since last year — nearly 9 times the rate of inflation.

Meanwhile, Trump’s personal net worth has soared by at least $3 billion this year.

Priorities.

As 2025 ends, the pattern is unmistakable. Trump’s second term is unraveling under its own weight. A hollowed-out presidency, factional chaos, and policies that keep backfiring. Step back from the daily noise, and the consequences are impossible to miss.
Backfire
On every major policy question, the Trump regime is failing badly. And voters are taking note.

It’s outrageous that they are still coming after Sen. Mark Kelly. Especially after we learned about an illegal double strike by our military on shipwrecked people. He was right to warn and remind service members of their oaths.

This is how our government has been corrupted:

1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat

We must get big money out of politics.

It is the root of our dysfunction.

"We can have democracy in this country, or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we can't have both." –Justice Louis Brandeis

Words spoken many years ago that are just as relevant today.

We must continue the fight to get big money out of politics.

Kroger will lay off ~1,000 employees.

In December, it announced $7.5B in stock buybacks – which juice stock prices, enriching shareholders and boosting CEO pay.

Just so happens that Kroger's last CEO was paid 457x its typical employee in 2024.

Textbook corporate greed.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion, after getting $1.2 trillion richer over the past year alone.

Meanwhile, the rest of the country is getting squeezed by tariffs and high prices for groceries, utilities, and health care.

The system is broken.
