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.

Speaking of voices under attack…can we be just as loud about Black journalists and comedians who are silenced, even by our so-called liberal outlets. • Joy Reid • Don Lemon • Melissa Harris-Perry • Tiffany Cross • Jemele Hill • Marc Lamont Hill • Karen Attiah • Amber Ruffin

🧊🖕✈️ TURNED AWAY⁉️ 👉 An Eastern 767 (tail: N705KW) on an ICE mission to Venezuela—on final approach to Caracas—was diverted to Aruba; no explanation available at this time.

Wake up, America, or I fear we may not have elections in 2028.

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

DISNEY: "OK, we are putting Jimmy Kimmel back on the air. You can resubscribe now." ME: "I unsubscribed because you immorally bowed to fascism. I'm not going to resubscribe because you immorally bowed to finances."

Not just Unpopular! He's also the Most Unworthy-Unqualified-Unethical-Uneducated-Unprepared-Undemocratic-Unfortunate-Unhinged-Unjust-Unread-Unappealing-Unconscionable-Untrustworthy-Unscrupulous-Unstable-Unbearable-Unlikable-Unreliable-Unsound & Unctuous President in Modern American History. 🇺🇸 🙄

Wannabe Mob-Boss Brendan Carr to ABC: "Look, we can either do this [getting rid of Kimmel] the easy way or we can do this the hard way." Professional Liar Karoline Leavitt: "This was 100% ABC's decision. There was absolutely no pressure put on them."

IT'S OFFICIAL: Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York State, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and New York City have formed the Northeast Public Health Collaborative. The collaborative will issue their own vaccine recommendations and coordinate public health efforts.

It's genuinely become comical how *clearly* desperate Trump's efforts have become to distract us from the Epstein List. But we won't forget. Each new distraction is just more Guilty icing on his "I did that!" Cake.

The 2022-23 tax stats just dropped. And there we have it: 91 millionaires who paid ZERO tax

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

Thank you for standing up to tyrants. Retaliating against people standing up against illegal acts is such an ugly attitude in our politics.

66,000 tons of food are rotting away in USAID warehouses thanks to Trump and DOGE. That's enough food to feed more than a million people in the world's poorest countries for three months — including over 480,000 kids. In what world is starving children "efficient"?

Just a reminder for any member of Congress who seems to have forgotten...

Aaaand there it is.

"Let me just make up facts based on my feelings, and do 0 research before publicly stating my feelings as facts" - This entire Administration

Crockett: Instead of the President cosplaying as the next pope, he may want to cosplay as an actual President of these United States. That means he may have to do a little bit of research and understand that he swore a an oath to defend and protect the constitution.

The Paradox of Tolerance: Tolerance cannot tolerate intolerance. If the tolerant permit INtolerance, intolerance wins every time. Tolerant people *must not* tolerate the intolerant. We don't have to stoop to their level, but we cannot allow them to feel comfortable exercising their intolerance.

Dear god let this man cook.

We believe in the Constitution, Bill of Rights, separation of powers, and checks and balances. The U.S. was founded in opposition to monarchy. We fought for democracy over dictatorship. What the Trump regime is doing is the antithesis of the values this nation was founded upon.

So this is where we are now? This nation was founded on checks and balances. The Trump regime is deliberately trying to undercut these founding principles as it unleashes an authoritarian power grab.

BREAKING NEWS: The White House has begun the process of looking for a new secretary of defense, according to a U.S. official who was not authorized to speak publicly.

If you paid $1 In federal income taxes, you paid more than: Tesla in 2024 & 2022 AT&T in 2021 Nike in 2020 FedEx in 2020 Dish Network in 2020 Amazon in 2017-2018 Elon Musk in 2018 Jeff Bezos in 2007 & 2011 Carl Icahn in 2016-2017 Yes. It’s time to tax the rich.

Undocumented immigrants paid an effective federal income tax rate of 5.27% in 2022. That means they paid a higher effective tax rate than 5 of the richest Americans…and a higher effective tax rate than 55 mega corporations. So let me ask you: who are the real freeloaders?

Where is our humanity?

This is blood-boiling. Charles Rogers was awarded the Medal of Honor in Vietnam after being wounded three times leading the defense of a position. Google his name and the entry below comes up. When you click, you'll see the page has been deleted and the URL changed to include "DEI medal."

Everyone should be screaming like this! More of this, now please!

I'd like to bring this video to your attention. www.youtube.com/watch?v=hyco... It's doing pretty significant numbers for what it is, so while I understand sharing it won't make a difference for those knee-deep in the cult of personality, I'd say it has a better-than-average chance of resonating.

No bone spurs detected.

Today, the House GOP censured me for speaking out for the American people against @POTUS’s plan to cut Medicaid. I accept the consequences of my actions, but I refuse to stay silent in the face of injustice. #WeShallOvercome x.com/repalgreen/s...

Former Vikings punter Chris Kluwe was arrested at a city council meeting after stating, “MAGA is explicitly a Nazi movement. You may have replaced a swastika with a red hat, but that is what it is,” before engaging in peaceful civil disobedience.

Crockett: "It's just that they're idiots. These are the same guys as it relates to our nuclear stockpile, they're like, 'Oh, wait a minute, we needed those guys? Can we get them back? Oh, we don't know how to.' I don't know how anyone can look at this administration & feel a semblance of confidence"

Pass it on.👇
