A comfortable life used to be the American Dream. Not being a financial mogul. Not fighting for the top spot on the food chain. Working to get your share of the pie with the whip cream on top. Grabbing enough food to fill your plate, but leaving plenty on the table for others. Let’s do that again.

The home goods retailer At Home just filed for bankruptcy with $2 billion in debt and is blaming tariffs and a consumer spending slowdown. Don’t worry, the economy’s doing “fine” unless you’re a worker, a shopper, or a business outside the stock market.

BANNON TO ELON: “Wanna stop the debt bomb? Raise taxes on the wealthy.”
When he’s right, he’s right.
But @MarshaBlackburn @RepTimBurchett @AndyOgles @SenatorHagerty etc. won’t tax the rich — because they don’t care about the debt, and never did.

When your neighborhood pizza guy of 25 years is labeled a “threat” and disappeared by masked men in body armor, maybe the problem isn’t him.
