The 100 lowest-paying US corporations spent $644B on stock buybacks from 2019 to 2024.
Buybacks artificially boost share prices and inflate CEO pay.
The typical worker at these companies earned $35k last year.
Meanwhile, the average CEO was paid $17.2M

The shameless hypocrisy of right-wing Christianity: Both James Dobson and Franklin Graham condemned Bill Clinton for having an affair, claiming it was not a private matter.
Neither man criticized Donald Trump for his affair(s). Said it was a private matter. And they both voted for him. Twice.

Tariffs are at their highest since the Great Depression, pushing prices up nearly 2%—a $2,400 hit per household. Shoes cost 39% more, apparel 37%.
Growth slows, jobs vanish, and families pay the price.
Call it what it is: a hidden tax making America poorer, not stronger.

Trump’s mobilization of the National Guard, ICE, and FBI in D.C. has nothing to do with safety.
In fact, violent crime has hit a 30-year low in D.C.
It’s plain and simple—this is what authoritarians do.
The Trump regime is attempting to instill fear, create propaganda, and consolidate control.

We previously found that the Trump administration knew the vast majority of the 230+ Venezuelan men deported to El Salvador had not been convicted of violent crimes.
Our latest analysis reveals another jarring reality: that most of the men were already moving through the U.S. immigration system.

Like most of the more than 230 Venezuelan men deported to a Salvadoran prison, José Manuel Ramos Bastidas had followed U.S. immigration rules. Then Trump rewrote them.

Remember: There is nothing natural or inevitable about extreme inequality; it’s the result of an economic system that values wealth and power over human dignity and justice.

They fear your voice because it’s powerful. The status quo trembles at a single voice. Silence isn’t safety-it’s surrender. They don’t fear your sadness-they fear your clarity. History doesn’t repeat itself- it responds to silence. They want you numb...so stay awake. Read this...often.
