In the last few days, the president fell asleep at the pope’s funeral, said he wasn’t making decisions in the White House and fell for an obvious photoshop.
Cool. Cool cool cool.

President Franklin Delano Roosevelt popularized the idea that the first 100 days of a presidency established an administration’s direction. As soon as he took office on March 4, 1933, he called Congress into special session to meet on March 9 to address the emergency of the Great Depression.

The $7.25 federal minimum wage is a poverty wage in every state.
Meanwhile S&P 500 CEOs made $40k/hr in 2024.
There’s a minimum wage because employers would pay less if they could, but no maximum wage because the rich write our laws to benefit the rich.

What $7.25 buys you in 2025
Americans who work 40 hours a week, 52 weeks a year, at the federal minimum wage no longer make enough money to keep themselves out of poverty.

IMPORTANT - vaccines could now be BANNED for part of this winter by Trump and RFK Jr, although hopefully any such ban would get halted with an injunction in court
GET CAUGHT UP ON VACCINES NOW - just in case
