The top 10% of richest Americans own 87% of stocks.
The top 1% alone own roughly half of all stocks.
It's worth pointing out once again that the stock market is not the economy.

Trump hosted a dinner last week for White House ballroom donors.
Then he went to Mar-a-Lago for a $1 million-per-person dinner benefiting his super PAC.
Last night, he treated big GOP donors to dinner on his new White House patio.
The government has been shut down for 22 days.

Latest WH Press Secretary Leavitt statement does not help Trump: "The fact remains that President Trump kicked Jeffrey Epstein out of his club for being a creep to his female employees.”

1/ Important:
"Epstein was actually still on the Mar-a-Lago membership logs up to 2007. ... That of course is a year after Jeffrey Epstein's arrest in Florida."
So Trump didn't kick him out for many years after knowing Epstein 'stole' Virginia Giuffre from MAL in 2000.

Almost every "right, privilege & liberty” Americans have cherished for 250 years is under attack, warns fmr. federal Judge J. Michael Luttig.

Judge Luttig: ‘No leadership' --‘Lemmings..who would walk the country off the cliff towards tyranny'
Former federal judge J. Michael Luttig joins Ali to discuss his powerful new piece, “The Self-Evident Truths of Freedom— and of Tyranny,” a reflection on the Declaration of Independence and its 27 “self-evident truths” about freedom and tyranny that apply today more than ever. Luttig warns that “almost every single right, privilege, and liberty,” Americans have cherished for almost 250 years is now “under attack,” and that power has dangerously “drifted away from the people to the government” itself. “The main problem and the main issue for America today is that we have no leader and we have no leadership,” he warns. “Our elected politicians…have followed like lemmings those who would walk this country off a cliff toward tyranny.
