The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.
The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.
Read that back.

On this date, Matthew Shephard died 27 years ago. He was beaten, tortured, and left for dead on fence for being gay. Please keep him and his wonderful mother Judy in your thoughts. And let's all work for a world where such horrific things do not happen to anyone. ❤️🏳️🌈

"The losses and damages on the Palestinian side are overwhelmingly larger than on the Israeli side. It is completely meaningless to accept that an occupying power attacks a civilian population with tanks, bombs and war-helicopters, and then call the resistance terrorism".

Oh my God. The allegations against a ‘Trumpet of Patriots’ candidate are utterly terrifying for a real person somewhere. A court must decide about them, of course, but he shouldn’t be an endorsed candidate with this unresolved.
"Police allege they found weapons and camouflage clothing inside his car. It is also alleged that during a further search of the vehicle officers located a shovel, axe, gloves, duct tape, ropes and a cadaver bag."
