60% of American households can’t afford a minimal quality of life.
Meanwhile, the 19 richest households saw their wealth increase by $1 trillion in 2024 — the biggest one-year increase ever.

Our problem is ever-expanding inequality.

We are not under invasion.
There is no justification for suspending our constitutional rights.
Every single American should speak out against this, loudly and forcefully.

For the past few weeks I spend every other night reading Harry Potter to my youngest while she takes a bath.
I pause reading only to sip my beer or cocktail-it’s peaceful.
I don’t remember that in parenting books 😂 but it calms her before bedtime. #parenting #anxiety
