I don't resent poor people who use food stamps to buy another soft drink.

I resent rich people who take away the funds for food stamps to buy another yacht.

Where are all the MAGA cultists who ranted endlessly when egg prices went up under Biden? They’re quiet as a church mouse now — even though grocery prices are up, housing costs are up, household furnishing costs are up, and electricity prices are through the roof.

Maybe it was never about prices? 🤷🏼‍♂️

July 18: If we have a smart president, you're never going to let the dollar slide. If you have a dummy, that could happen.

July 25: A weak dollar makes you a hell of a lot more money. It doesn't sound good, but you make a hell of a lot more money with a weaker dollar than with a strong dollar

According to a new report, nearly 27% of homes sold in Q1 of 2025 were bought by real estate investors — the highest share in at least five years.

If we want to make housing affordable for working people, we must get Wall Street out of our homes. https://youtu.be/q9TOGxDJ0TE?si=vGkgsj8jyHBFtUyW

This has always been the GOP's strategy:

1) Cut taxes for the wealthy & corporations by claiming they'll pay for themselves.

2) Explode deficits

3) Use the debt as an excuse to demand cuts to vital programs that help millions.

4) Repeat.

JUST HAPPENED: West: “You can’t violate another country’s sovereignty.”

Jennings: “Why? We do it all the time. Who’s going to stop us?”

He admitted America breaks the law constantly—and then dared the world to do something about it. That’s not journalism. That’s fascism on live TV.

Billions in foreign real estate deals.

$320M in crypto trading fees — and a private dinner with top buyers of his meme coin.

$28M from Amazon for a Melania documentary.

The list goes on...

We're so numb to Trump profiting off the presidency that hardly anyone notices. Hello?

Here's something everybody should be paying attention to: Congressional Republicans are trying to weaken the Affordable Care Act and put millions of people at risk of losing their health care. Call your Senators and tell them we can't let that happen.
Shhh. Republicans are trying to repeal Obamacare again. Sort of.
They’re not branding it an Obamacare repeal this time around, but congressional Republicans are pursuing cuts to programs that are part of the 15-year-old health-care law.

The overwhelming majority of jobs at the two biggest companies in America pay less than $20/hr.

Meanwhile, the heads of those companies are some of the richest people on the planet.

See the problem?
