These people did everything right
The bottom 90% lost a collective $79 trillion in wages over the past 50 years.
Why? Because the top 1% ate up an increasingly larger share of the national income — so that $79 trillion flowed to them instead of the working class.
The greatest trick of all is trickle-down economics.

Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.
McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.
Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay.
See the problem?
This is how our government has been corrupted:
1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat
We must get big money out of politics.
It is the root of our dysfunction.
The media needs to stop calling it a peace plan. It's a Republican surrender plan for Europe. Why? Because Republicans have embraced fascist plutocracy and Europe isn't.

Socialism is what they called public power.
Socialism is what they called social security.
Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.
Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.
—Harry Truman, 1952
sickening
Harry Truman: If it benefits all the people, they call it socialism.
Trump reportedly demanded that the DOJ pay him for past criminal cases brought against him.
Reminder that the DOJ doesn't have to make a public announcement, meaning they could pay Trump $230 million in complete secrecy.
That's unprecedented, unethical and unacceptable.
He is such a toddler
Let’s go Canada! 🇨🇦 Keep up reminding Americans how insane all of this is.
It certainly triggered him.

This.
Trump is the enemy
Yes, I agree — it would be terrible. Please do NOT share this information!!!
One thing I've learned from the Internet is that a lie needs 0% proof to be believed, but the truth requires thousands of pages of proof and still won't be believed.
This seems to be happening more and more. It's infuriating
Americans have short memories—keep reminding them. PLEASE SHARE!
This will not end without bloodshed. It is time.
Holy crap, I hate this administration.
SENATOR @warnock.senate.gov : “Are we reading the same Book? The Book I know says ‘I was hungry, and you fed me… I was a stranger, and you welcomed me… insomuch as you’ve done it to the least of these, you’ve done it also unto me.’”
