On this day in 1911,146 workers died in the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire.
The bosses responsible were never held accountable for the awful working conditions that sparked the blaze.

This has always been the GOP's strategy:
1) Cut taxes for the wealthy & corporations by claiming they'll pay for themselves.
2) Explode the deficit.
3) Demand cuts to vital programs that help millions.
4) Repeat.

But what's the plan here?
Trump knows his biggest enemies are educators and younger generations unafraid to speak truth to power.
Attacks on education are central to the fascist playbook.
