Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024.
This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500.
And we're supposed to believe Starbucks can't afford to bargain a fair contract with its unionized workers?

Folks like Musk, Trump, Vance and Thiel are 100% trying to keep America white. They’re worried we’re going to have a majority-brown nation in a few decades. Thus the push for a higher birth-rate and zero abortion. It’s pure racist eugenics and selective breeding on a mass scale.

In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes.
This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

America First. Really?
Trump says we have to throw 15 million Americans off healthcare and significantly raise ACA premiums because we don’t have enough money.
But somehow we have $20 billion to bailout the right-wing regime of Argentina?
We can’t let that happen.

Because North Carolina's state lawmakers refuse to pass a basic state budget, teacher pay is still stuck at near the bottom in the entire southeast.
North Carolina is one of only 3 states in the entire nation that still hasn't passed a state budget this year.

JON KARL: What do you make of Pam Bondi saying she's gonna go after hate speech? A lot of your allies say hate speech is free speech
TRUMP: We'll probably go after people like you because you treat me so unfairly. You have a lot of hate in your hate. Maybe they'll have to go after you.
