The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

Read that back.

When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

REPUBLICANS HAVE S200 MILLION FOR A BALLROOM, S1 BILLION FOR A NEW JET AND S72 MILLION FOR ENDLESS GOLF TRIPS. THEY HAVE MONEY TO GIVE ICE $50,000 BONUSES.
THEY HAVE S1 MILLION PER DAY TO OCCUPY AMERICAN CITIES. THEY HAVE S3.8 BILLION TO SEND ISRAEL WEAPONS AND $40 BILLION TO BAILOUT ARGENTINA.
BUT THERE'S NO MONEY FOR HEALTHCARE.

Honoring Ashli Babbitt Dishonors the Military If there’s no difference between upholding the Constitution and attacking it, then there’s no honor in service.

β€œβ€¦I am infuriated that the Air Force plans to grant military funeral honors to Ashli Babbitt. She did not die defending the Constitution. She died trying to overturn it.”

The DOJ sandwich thrower as it turns out is a much decorated active duty staff Sergeant in the Marines. He identified himself immediately and offered to self surrender to the felony charge, but they sent 20 officers to arrest him. What a debacle it would be if the grand jury declines to indict.

We greatly respect the groundwork that local orgs laid long before our movement and encourage all to prioritize and uplift their efforts. In that spirit, we are uplifting this event, an idea that began with some of our members and has grown into its own separate, family-friendly community gathering.

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

USMC Ret. Lt. Colonel Joe Plenzler deployed with the same Marine battalion now heading to Los Angeles.

Marines training for war are now being deployed against American citizens. This crosses a dangerous line.
