The Trump tariff roller-coaster goes off the rails.

The mad king makes a mockery of the rule of law.

The Reverse Robin Hood budget bill begins.

The stock portfolios of more than two dozen members of Congress outperformed the market in 2024.

This isn't due to luck or skill.

Lawmakers can use privileged information to trade stocks while they’re supposed to be working for you.

Make no mistake, it’s legalized corruption.

The United States is the richest country in the history of the world. But who benefits from those riches?

Consider: the richest 10% of Americans hold nearly 70% of the nation’s wealth – while the bottom 50% hold just 3%.

The concentration of wealth in the hands of an elite few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy.

When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, the American people don't have a voice.

The result? Demagoguery and corruption.

Nearly every Republican in the Senate voted to overturn a Biden Admin rule that limited bank overdraft fees to $5.

This rule, initially established by the now gutted CFPB, was expected to save consumers $5 billion annually.

The GOP is the party of junk fees.

If you give in to extortionists, they’ll extort you and others for more. If you let bullies get their way, those bullies will bully you and others even more menacingly.

This is what a worldwide Tesla boycott looks like. Reports just in show that Tesla sales in San Diego have dropped by 35% this month. We likely won’t have a full picture of U.S. sales for another week.

The White House reportedly wants to recruit corporate sponsors for its annual Easter Egg Roll.

The financial backers could spend as much as $200,000 on a "sponsorship" and gain exclusive access to the Oval Office.

Is there anything that's not for sale under Trump?
