Republicans have been out to gut Social Security for years because it’s one of the most popular and successful programs ever created.

Those who claim to care about the debt while pushing for trillions in tax cuts for the rich and corporations don't really care about the debt. Hello?
Unelected billionaire Elon Musk attacks social security, which keeps millions of seniors out of poverty, as “the biggest Ponzi scheme of all time”

The heartlessness is limitless

This is what House Republicans voted for tonight.

Another reminder that we have socialism for the rich, harsh capitalism for the rest.

Amazon workers in Quebec unionized last year.

This week, Amazon closed its warehouse operations in Quebec.

Amazon denied the closures were related to unionization, but it has a track record of crushing unions in America.

Union busting is disgusting — and a global problem.
Amazon Closes Operations in Quebec, Laying off 1,700 Workers
Unions had gained a foothold in one of the company’s warehouses in the province, though Amazon would not say if there was a connection.

Don't forget that just hours before he took office, Trump became a crypto billionaire by shilling a worthless meme coin.

And of course he didn't divest from any of his other businesses.

Is it any wonder that ethics are out the window in the second Trump administration?
Trump has repealed a Biden executive order mandating ethical behavior from administration employees.

The order told federal workers to:
-Not accept gifts from lobbyists
-Not take other bribes
-Not lobby for two years after government work
-And more

Now those rules are gone.

Trump is the consequence rather than the cause of the anti-democratic surge.

Here's how the Supreme Court's infamous Citizens United decision — issued 15 years ago today — overwhelmed our political system with money and brought us to our current moment.
