Why do so many feel like they've fallen behind?
It's not because of immigrants, trans people, DEI, the “deep state,” or any other bogeyman trotted out by the GOP.
It's because big corporations and billionaires have rigged markets and siphoned off most of the economy's gains.

Let’s not forget: Trump promised he would go after “criminal” migrants. But instead he’s targeting farm workers who labor to put food on all our tables.

Nearly nine months after Hurricane Helene devastated North Carolina, people in some communities are still struggling to find fresh food.
9 months after Hurricane Helene, food scarcity is still real in western North Carolina
The town of Swannanoa is a mess after Helene. Some businesses may never reopen — including the only grocery store. "Swannanoa is a food desert," says the head of a nonprofit that brings in fresh food.

The stock portfolios of more than two dozen members of Congress outperformed the market in 2024.
This isn't due to luck or skill.
Lawmakers can use privileged information to trade stocks while they’re supposed to be working for you.
Make no mistake, it’s legalized corruption.

The top five egg producers own roughly half of all U.S. laying hens.
The biggest of those corporations is Cal-Maine, which just announced quarterly profits of $509 million — more than 3x what it made a year ago.
Corporate concentration + bird flu = a price-hiking free for all.
