Weโ€™re in the second Gilded Age just like the first โ€” when Americaโ€™s wealth was in the hands of a few, money corrupted politics, and working people were abused and exploited.

It can be easy to feel discouraged, but the first Gilded Age teaches us lessons on how we can fight back.

REPORTER: We know the president moved forward with mass layoffs. We're also learning there were significant cuts to staff at special education services. Are you comfortable with those cuts?

MIKE JOHNSON: I haven't seen the specifics of that and I don't know

George Stephanopolous did what every anchor and host should have been doing since Bush 2000: Rejecting the bullshit, gaslighting, and rude, evasive filibustering the GOP has perfected to hide their lies.

NO MORE BULLSHIT.

Looks like Justice Amy Coney Barrett visited the La Prairie counter at Neiman Marcus and asked for a "Mar-a-Lago" makeover.

Imagine making six figures to not do anything you were entrusted to do.

โ€ฆgetting paid to not work while thousands of civil servants around you were getting fired.

โ€ฆbetraying those who counted on you to represent them, all to appease a wannabe dictator.

The GOP Congress is a helluva thing.

Trump to Israeli Knesset: "We have settled 8 wars in 8 months. I'm now including this one, by the way. They may say, 'Well, that was quick,' but yesterday I was saying 7 but now I can say 8. The hostages are back."
