Meanwhile, CEOs make 280 times the typical worker today.

The system is rigged.

Seriously? He has no idea how insurance works or how to govern. Iโ€™ll never get over 77 million people thinking a man this incompetent belongs anywhere near the Oval Office.

The current GOP lie is that theyโ€™re going to replace Obamacare with something better.

Bullshit. In all of the majorities theyโ€™ve had since Obamacare passed, theyโ€™ve never once tried to replace it.

Theyโ€™ve tried to repeal it a whole bunch, but never actually make it better.

Donโ€™t worry, Mitch McConnell, we havenโ€™t forgotten that most of this is your fault.

This current American presidential administration is run by people who are quite obviously mentally ill, and we need to start talking about that.

The rich donโ€™t spend the money they have, and the poor donโ€™t have money to spend.

This is a problem when 70% of the economy relies on consumer spending.

Closing our nation's wealth gap isnโ€™t just the right thing to do. Itโ€™s essential to save our economy. https://youtu.be/S6dCh48b4oI?feature=shared

The CEO of a a multi-trillion dollar company went to the White House, openly handed the US president a gift made of gold, and his company got a special exemption to tariffs the president has illegally imposed.

Also, the Founders took bribery so seriously the Constitution bans it 3 separate times.

CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%.ย 

Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

In case you were wondering, yes, the administration thinks itโ€™s hilarious that Trump supporters are too dumb to realize that tariffs are a tax hike on them.

Theyโ€™re pushing back because it would also ban the administration from trading stocks.

Theyโ€™d be fine with limiting Congress, but their own insider trading must continue

Welcome to America;
where our president
is publicly
saying nice things about,
giving immunity to,
and suggesting a possible pardon for
a well-connected
child sex trafficker.

But Iโ€™m sure heโ€™s got a good reason.

The Department of Justice is pretending it needed to talk to notorious liar Ghislaine Maxwell to know the truth about Jeffrey Epstein, when it is concealing thousands of documents about him that donโ€™t lie. Itโ€™s a sick farce.
