The Trump family took $4 billion while building a $1 billion gilded ballroom and demolishing the East Wing. Now 20 million Americans risk losing healthcare. This is what Republicans call leadership.

By moving to the ācenter,ā Democrats have failed to fight the forces that led us to Trump: widening inequality and the unchecked power of billionaires. There's no "center" anymore between a takeover of the government by oligarchs and true freedom. Dems need to learn this.

When oligarchs talk of āpersonal liberties and free marketsā they mean their own liberties to become even richer and more powerful. When oligarchs speak of āfreedom,ā what they actually seek is freedom from accountability. Know the truth.

Trumpās income in 2025 topped $2 billion ā a 233% increase from 2024. It's not just stock trades. Over half of his gains came from his crypto business, which foreign countries have funneled money into to curry favor as he deregulates the industry. We must not become numb to this corruption.
