US BUDGET DEFICIT SOARS
The deficit jumped 19% to $291B in July. This is despite $21B collected from Americans due to higher import taxes, which led to higher costs on goods like furniture, footwear, and auto parts.
The deficit for 2025 is already $1.63 trillion, up 7% from the last year.

Trump whipping himself up about cracking down on DC.
The language - “savagery, filth and scum” - should worry any right-minded person.

This was given to reporters today. Trump is comparing Washington, D.C.'s murder rate to cities in other countries. Why? Because DC isn't even in the Top 10 for American cities. This chart only proves how violent the United States is compared to the rest of the world.

As you listen to an unhinged Trump try to justify deploying the National Guard in DC, here's reality:
Violent crime in DC is at a 30-year low.

So Donald Trump is going to send the national guard to Washington DC today when the people of DC don’t need them, after refusing to deploy them on January 6, when the people of Washington DC did.

Not only will we continue to demand the release of the unredacted (other than that of the victims), Epstein files, we demand the victims be heard!
We don't care what a convicted sex trafficker has to say. The only voices that matter are those of the victims.

the intensity of my anger at those who would criminalize the homeless — a population literally created by the greed and callousness of the ruling class — is very hard to contain. it was you who dismantled the safety net. if you don’t like the results, put it back

We out number the elite, and we hold the real power. For one they have convinced us wealth is power, it isn't numbers are, which is why they divide us into manageable numbers, in order to dominate and control. The weapon of divide, and conquer continues to be utilized by the elite
