Raskin: "Speaker Johnson described the exercise of 1st Amendment rights across the country by 6 or 7 millions Americans as part of No Kings as a 'Hate America Rally.' The Hate America Rally happened on January 6 ... there were more than 140 police officers who were wounded."

In 2022, we predicted that the wage gap would widen. In 2025, we were proven (sadly) correct. Read more below from @forbes.com on how the widening wage gap is hurting our economy.
