CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1

CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 280-to-1

Trickle-down economics was always a sham.

Nothing has ever trickled down.

What we are witnessing is an outright abuse of power.

This administration is attacking critics and using fear as a weapon to silence anyone who would speak out. Media corporations — from television networks to newspapers — are capitulating to these threats.

Charlie Kirk spent his life making people like me unsafe. His followers sent me death threats for years and threatened my employer if they didn’t terminate me.

His work was NEVER about free speech. It was about hate and emboldening violent people. The dishonesty of the past 24hrs is disgusting.

I will never forgive those who voted for DJT or for this bill.

I hope each person responsible feels the pain they have put upon their neighbors & that their sleep is filled with nightmares of the pain & death they voted for. May they never find peace again.

If men were victims of domestic violence, assault & rape at the same rate as women....Diddy would have been found guilty on all charges.

It is exhausting as a former victim to watch men get away with violence at this level over & over just because the woman was to terrified to leave or report it.

Thanks to Senate Republicans, 17 million people will lose their health care.

Thanks to Senate Republicans, three million Americans, including veterans and seniors, will lose food assistance.

Thanks to Senate Republicans, families will see their energy bills go up by $400 a year.

Dear World,

I've said it before, I'll say it again: DO NOT COME TO AMERICA for the next 4+ years.

Not for vacation.
Not for business.
Not for FIFA World Cup.
Not for ANYTHING.

Due to new management, it is not safe here. Our President is declaring an unprecedented war on us.

PASS IT ON.

To all the people who called me an alarmist when I cited Project 2025 to you last year, who stopped calling, who didn’t vote, who “don’t do politics” …..
Fuck you. Politics is about to do us all.

There’s not a single person whose life isn’t in some way touched by immigrants.

They’re the farm workers picking your food.
They’re the healthcare workers treating you when you’re sick.
They build, clean, fix & sell everything you use.

Immigrants run this country, & they’re as American as anyone.

Just a friendly reminder to anyone serving currently: your first duty is to the Constitution, the second to the president. Please don't forget that order as we go into this next weekend that will assuredly test the strength of our democracy.

We see what they’re doing. They’re baiting us, trying to provoke violence to justify a crackdown. Don’t give them the footage they want. Every broken window becomes propaganda in their hands. Stay sharp. Stay united. We’re here to fight for justice, not feed their narrative.

Let this sink in.

Even the Los Angeles Police Chief, Jim McDonnell, made it clear: the people protesting immigration raids were not the ones causing violence.

During a Sunday evening press conference, McDonnell condemned the violence as “disgusting”

We’re deeply disappointed in much of the U.S. media. Grateful, however, to international journalists who are telling the truth.

Undocumented immigrants pay almost $100 billion in taxes each year.

The top 1% evade $163 billion in taxes each year.

Stop pretending that immigrants are the ones taking advantage of taxpayers.

73% of mothers with kids under 18 are in the workforce. More than flowers or brunch, working moms need:

-Paid family leave
-Equal pay
-Universal childcare

(But get your mom flowers, too)

A constituent was forcibly removed from Mike Lawler’s town hall.

He has inadvertently created an instantly iconic image of the resistance.
