American corporations are on pace to spend $1.1 trillion on stock buybacks in 2025, an all-time high.

Buybacks don't create more jobs, increase wages, or grow the economy β€” but they do help juice CEO pay that's often tied to stock performance.

Nothing trickles down to workers.

22% probably doesn't include
the ongoing debt incurred during Biden's 4 years
as a result of Trump's 4 years
due to Covid & Tax Cuts for the Rich.

DID U KNOW?Beneath the World Trade Center ruins, crews uncovered a Revolutionary-era ship buried since 1773. Once part of Manhattan’s shoreline expansion, its timbersβ€”cut in Philadelphiaβ€”now resurface, linking America’s fight for independence with its resilience after 9/11

Democrats can't assume future elections will follow normal patterns returning them to power.

Trump/"GOP" is trying to rig future elections to keep them in power permanently.

MAGA will not accept anyone else having power over them.
America must remove MAGA from "GOP" permanently.

STOP THEIR STEAL!

"Democrats in disarray!"
Democrats embrace Diversity, but Diversity divides them into separate interest groups. Democrats have lost their unifying strength.

"Republicans come home."
Republicans strongly unite. Something unifies them. The "GOP" core is White Christian, unified by "White", not Jesus.

Trump will give Putin what he wants
including territory he has tried to steal from Ukraine.

Putin will just use his stolen Ukrainian territory
to launch another assault on the rest of Ukraine.

Any "deal" to give Ukrainian territory to Russia
must say Russia loses it if they break the peace "deal".

If you want Growth, Tax the Rich so they have to work harder to get richer.

If you give tax cuts to the rich, they get richer without working harder. They pocket the money, & corporations do stock buybacks. No Growth!

You're against helping the poor to force them to work harder, also Tax the Rich!

A video arguing that women shouldn’t be able to vote was just shared by Trump’s Secretary of Defense, the guy in charge of our whole military.

And Democratic Party leaders still can’t stand up to this administration?! Our rights are on the line and all our party leaders offer us is silence.

Every increasingly panicked, paranoid move Trump makes
on every issue, old & new, says:

GUILTY! GUILTY! GUILTY! GUILTY! GUILTY! GUILTY!

Everyone in Trump's administration & every Republican politician can't stop digging deeper & deeper holes
because the hole in Trump's soul can never be healed.

The Secretary of Defense is out here promoting Christian nationalism.

Imagine being a Jewish or Muslim servicemember right now.

In any other Administration this would be a fireable offense. In this one, it’s applauded.

Lawrence O’Donnell is giving a scathing and profoundly relevant to August 2025 indictment of the lax, ethically compromised, historically disengaged White House Press Corps. It should be widely circulated tomorrow and used in every journalism department in the nation.

Dear White People,

ONE of our jobs right now is to make sure we’re not in social circles where fascism is unmentioned.

The ultimate privilege is to pretend this isn’t happening & that we’ll somehow be unaffected.

It is happening.
We made it happen.
We will be affected.
Others are affected first.
