Political corruption. Vast inequality. Giant monopolies. Ultra-wealthy elites. Conspicuous consumption.

These problems defined the Gilded Age of the late 1800s. And they're dominating America again today.

But we have the power to fight back. https://youtu.be/Nmq7QqqY4vo?si=F3dxZcPJJRcBXB1O

The bottom 90% lost a collective $79 trillion in wages over the past 50 years.

Why? Because the top 1% ate up an increasingly larger share of the national income — so that $79 trillion flowed to them instead of the working class.

The greatest trick of all is trickle-down economics.

If it takes 1000 FBI agents or just 1000 people to redact his name from the files, then the dumbass is in deep trouble, because 1000 more people know he is in the Epstein files an insane number of times. 😏

It will only take a few of them to leak it to the media. 👍👍

MAY THE LEAKING BEGIN NOW. 👍👍

He was getting paid for access to teenagers to rape, and for access to other influential men. He wasn’t getting paid to manage money for the rich.

The “financier” thing was a cover.

Having spent a number of hours today fairly deep in the Epstein docs from his estate, one big takeaway is that Epstein had his hands in everything. Connections to MbS, MbZ, China, Israel, the UK, all over Europe, big tech, Bannon, Dems & Rs, academics, physicists, genetics experts and EVERYONE KNEW.

I was on the StartMeUp podcast today talking about Epstein, the Dem cave on the shutdown, the potential of a Vance presidency, and why community organizing will save the nation.

Always fun to be with @kimberleyjohnson.bsky.social. Give it a listen.

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?
As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX
