ICYMI: @abigaildisney.bsky.social in the @nytopinion.nytimes.com — Disney parks & Trump’s tax plan have one thing in common: catering to the ultrawealthy at the expense of the middle class. #TrumpTaxScam #EconomicJustice

Nearly 70% of Americans now believe the American dream doesn't hold true or never did, the highest in 15 years of polling on this topic. www.wsj.com/economy/wsj-...

The last six months have delivered a series of blows to nonprofits and foundations — steep federal funding cuts; attacks on diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts; threats to organizations’ tax-exempt status; and more. phlnthrp.com/40BZbT1

NEW: CEO pay has ballooned from 42x the average worker’s pay in 1980 to an outrageous 538x today, IPS @inequality.org researchers found. Wealth isn't trickling down, it's being vacuumed up. There's a clear solution, says heiress @abigaildisney.bsky.social in @newrepublic.com: Tax people like her.

Privilege isn’t the problem in and of itself; it’s only positional. The problem is extreme wealth, inherited or earned, curdles quickly into entitlement. And when entitlement is widely distributed among the very powerful, it becomes everybody’s problem. https://trib.al/ITBKeXx

In a new piece for The New Yorker, @eosnos.bsky.social spotlights the blatant pay-to-play schemes of the Trump administration. Evan joined us at our conference in April, and we’re honored he highlighted our work as staunch opponents to Trump’s politics of plunder. www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...

Philanthropist Abigail Disney urged donors and the leaders of major foundations and nonprofits to be braver with their giving in the face of funding freezes and cuts by the Trump administration and said when people act courageously, it encourages others to do the same. phlnthrp.com/4j8czET

“Courage is working through fear, in spite of fear. I’ve never had a moment in my life when I wasn’t fearful. The trick is to hold on to your values through fear.”

Yes, the rich are different, but lucky the rest of us they're not all alike. For @insidephilanthropy.com here's a look at 8 orgs by/for rich people working to dismantle their own privilege. #philanthropy #taxtherich @ewdinstitute.bsky.social @solidaire.bsky.social @patrioticmillionaires.org

Nancy MacLean of Duke details the throughline that runs all the way from the Confederacy to Trumpism

I'll be tweeting clips from @patrioticmillionaires.org's "How to Beat the Broligarchs" event this morning in this thread as part of my partnership with @snapstream.com. Follow along!

"This economy should be judged on how well it takes care of people, not on how many billionaires it prints in a calendar day. Every great country starts with a great economy." Our founder Erica Payne saying what we all need to hear. Join us LIVE here: patrioticmillionaires.org/conferences/

“I am of the belief that every billionaire who can’t live on $999m is kind of a sociopath...It’s a strange way to live when you have objectively more money than a person can spend.” Read a profile of @abigaildisney.bsky.social in @theguardian.com today!

We can't fight against rising authoritarianism alone. Join Patriotic Millionaires for its virtual event “How to Beat the Broligarchs: An Expert Town Hall” on how reforming our tax system is the key to saving democracy. Monday, April 7th | 9 AM–12 PM ET 🔗 patrioticmillionaires.org/conferences

No, this is not a prank. Yes, we really want you to tax our millionaire members. And yes, we really want you to join us for our virtual Town Hall event (less than one week from today!): patrioticmillionaires.org/conferences/

The concentration of wealth in the hands of an elite few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy. When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, the American people don't have a voice. The result? Demagoguery and corruption.

Trump’s executive order canceling federal workers’ union contracts isn't just anti-labor—it's an authoritarian move, like attacks on media & courts. History proves dismantling unions is core to consolidating authoritarian power. We can't overlook this. (Thread) bit.ly/4lpwEcv

Once a union buster, always a union buster! We condemn Trump’s EO attacking 700k+ federal workers’ rights. A 70% supermajority of Americans support labor. Unions won’t be silenced. We won’t back down, and we aren’t going anywhere! iatse.net/iatse-on-exe...

An #EqualPayDay reminder that it is completely legal to discuss your wages with your coworkers. Talk about your salaries and demand fair AND equal pay ✊

“I have seen the way wealth erodes character, the way it saps empathy out of even the most well-meaning people..." Our Member @abigaildisney.bsky.social at the Vatican last month as part of a dialogue about international tax justice and the threat that extreme wealth concentration poses worldwide.

We hear the theme of last night’s speech was “The Renewal of the American Dream.” We were so concerned about the state of the American Dream, we made a film about it… Watch it at home today. americandreamdoc.com/watch-at-home/

As Walt Disney World and Disneyland plan to roll out real time surge pricing, condemning visitors to constantly fluctuating admission costs, this is yet another example of corporate greed, enriching shareholders at the cost of consumers.

Disney is reportedly on the verge of implementing surge pricing. Under the plan park prices will fluctuate in real-time based on demand. As early as next month there could be no set price for a ticket — the only way to check prices will be to try to buy one in the moment.

Great presentation by @abigaildisney.bsky.social debunking the American dream & the supposed meritocracy of billionaires. She calls for #TaxTheRich #TaxThePower to reduce inequality & oligarchy @patrioticmillionaires.org @icrict.bsky.social
