Costs are rising, the market’s crashing, and once again—nothing Trump does is for the working class. It’s all for the 1%. Let’s show it. Go out, gather receipts, screenshots, stories—share them with #WTFDJT. Let’s make it clear: he’s not one of us, and he never was. Spread this post so he sees the #

Kindness is radical when the system is built on cruelty. Faith or not—we all win when we care for each other. Share what you do with #RealChristianValues so others join in. Let’s make it clear: we know what love thy neighbor really means—and it’s not tax cuts for billionaires.

Let’s show what real Christian values look like: care for the poor, the sick, the struggling. From now until Easter, let’s observe a Weekly Day of Kindness. Volunteer at a food bank. Donate to mutual aid. Help a neighbor. Cover someone’s groceries. Call your reps & demand action for workers

The right loves to shout about “Christian values,” but their policies tell a different story—tax cuts for billionaires, attacks on the poor, stripping healthcare, and crushing workers. That’s not love thy neighbor—it’s farming the working class for profit while worshiping greed.

Billionaires aren’t just complicit—they chose this. They chose Trump, corporate greed, and policies that bleed workers dry. And they’ll keep choosing it—until we stop them. The government should work for us, not the ultra-rich.

The richest 1% own more wealth than the bottom 90% combined. They could end poverty, fund healthcare, and raise wages—but they won’t. Instead, they back Trump, demand more for themselves, and leave workers with less.

While wages stagnate and prices soar, billionaires hoard wealth, crush unions, and raise costs. Then they smile at Trump’s rallies, knowing he’ll keep the scam going. They don’t care if democracy burns—as long as their stock portfolios rise.

Billionaires aren’t just bystanders in Trump’s America—they’re enablers. They back him for tax cuts, deregulation, and handouts while workers struggle. They don’t fear him. They profit from him. Because for them, chaos isn’t a problem—it’s an opportunity.

The right floods the zone with noise to keep people distracted and hopeless. Don’t play into it. Give working people a voice. Elevate those helping others through this time. Make it clear who’s really hurting America—and who’s fighting to fix it.

There are people out there organizing, fighting, and surviving despite everything being thrown at them. Tell those stories. Give people hope. Show them that they’re not alone and that action is possible. That’s how you build something real. @podsaveamerica.crooked.com

Every minute spent dunking on bad-faith right-wingers is a minute not spent exposing the real damage being done. We need to hear from workers struggling under these policies, families being crushed by greed, and communities banding together to help each other.

Progressive & independent media: Stop wasting time on right-wing hypocrisy & “I regret my vote” stories. We know they’re hypocrites. We know some regret it. That doesn’t help working people survive this mess. Focus on them. Tell their stories. That’s what matters.

If you’ve never worked a 12-hour shift, stressed over bills, or sacrificed basics just to survive, you shouldn’t be making decisions for those who do. It’s time for a government that answers to workers—not the people getting rich off their labor. #TaxTheRich

Workers know what workers need: better wages, real healthcare, and a fair shot at life. Billionaires know what they need: lower taxes, weaker unions, and cheaper labor. Who do you think politicians should be listening to?

A CEO making $20 million a year isn’t worried about grocery prices. A billionaire with private doctors isn’t losing sleep over medical debt. These people have never lived like the working class. Yet they get to tell Congress what’s “best” for workers?

Billionaires have no clue what it’s like to live paycheck to paycheck, skip meals to afford rent, or pray your car makes it one more month. Why are they the ones influencing policy on wages, healthcare, and workers’ rights? They don’t know our struggles—they just profit from them. #WorkersFirst

You wouldn’t hire a plumber to do heart surgery, so why trust a podcaster over a journalist? Read local papers, support investigative reporting, and question everyone—especially those who profit from outrage, not truth.

The truth exists. You just have to care enough to find it.

Social media rewards engagement, not truth. If someone says, “Actually, that’s false, here’s the data,” they get ignored. But if someone shouts, “The world is ending and it’s YOUR enemy’s fault!” they go viral. That’s why these non-journalistic sources thrive.

Tim Poole, Joe Rogan, and their clones aren’t journalists. They don’t fact-check, they don’t investigate, and they don’t care if they mislead people. They just talk. Loudly. Confidently. And rake in cash while their audience spirals into conspiracy rabbit holes.

It’s wild that in 2025, so many people get their “news” from Twitter threads, Reddit posts, and YouTube grifters instead of actual journalists. Imagine getting your medical advice from a guy at the gas station instead of a doctor—that’s what’s happening to the news.

Next time they tell you immigrants are the problem, ask yourself: Who actually controls wages? Who sets rent prices? Who makes record profits while you struggle? That’s where the real slight of hand is happening. #FollowTheMoney #WorkersUnite

If they really cared about American workers, they’d fight for higher wages, better benefits, and affordable housing. But that would cost their rich donors money—so instead, they hand you a scapegoat and hope you don’t look too closely.

But instead of holding CEOs and billionaires accountable, they want you to look in the wrong direction. Just like a magician, they rely on misdirection—keeping you distracted so you don’t see who’s really robbing you. #SleightOfHand

Wages aren’t low because of immigrants. They’re low because corporations refuse to pay fair wages. Housing isn’t unaffordable because of immigrants. It’s because landlords and investors price-gouge and hoard properties.
