Jeff Bezos paid $50 million for a wedding. He just got a $16 billion tax break. He just laid off 60,000 people.
And you're furious about a kid getting a free school lunch?

Nyambeni is a leader in the making. She has a heart of gold and regularly likes to look after the babies but - like any toddler – she has a few quirks. Just the other day she shoved Wamata into the trough, giving her an unexpected extra bath. Hardly becoming matriarch behaviour!

In the past five years alone, our Canine Unit has covered an impressive 7,588 kilometres on patrol. To put that into perspective, the dogs have tracked roughly the distance from Cape Town to Beijing - nose to the ground, head in the game, and hearts on the job. Their dedication led to 75 arrests.

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.

One caution I'd offer as everyone goes through these emails is that *Jeffrey Epstein* (of all people) saying something in an email does not automatically make it true!
