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.

The most dangerous form of government is theocracy. 

Because the only thing worse than a tyrant is a tyrant who thinks they're on a mission from God.

The share of Americans age 65 & older has risen & will likely keep growing. Older households tend to hold more wealth, increasing the demand for assets across the economy. This chart shows the rise in older population alongside a decline in long-term real yields. https://bit.ly/47fEqQW

The future of the Democratic Party must be rooted in investing in the American people — not Wall St., corporations, and consultants.

Otherwise, Trumpism will continue to use cynicism, racism, and distrust to divide America.

With emphasis on “all”.

And the long tail of excessive deaths from tropical cyclones…

Like any other map in America... Obesity, literacy... etc. Overlap with Bible belt, correlation, or causation?

Worse than having *no* public protests at this point, given all the horrors this administration has already visited upon our democracy, wd be to have public protests w/anemic turnout.

Don't just think abt attending.
" " hope to attend.
PLAN to attend.
Leave early & BE THERE.

The White House is already walking back hundreds of federal layoffs Trump's cronies fired critical public health workers. Regret set in immediately.

It's hard to overstate just how badly and completely they screwed up.

Boston No Kings! won't be your average protest.

Yes, we’ll have speakers-but also live music, theater & art, & more than 30 resistance groups ready to turn your outrage into action.

Because in Mass, we don’t just rally—we organize.

Peaceful? Yup. Passive? Never. Join us!

Vance is having an incredible morning on the Sunday shows doing "oh so now it's illegal to [mundane thing]?"

A real quote when Vance is asked about whether Tom Homan kept the $50,000 he got in a fast food bag: "Is it illegal to take a payment for doing services?"

The way he “Georges” him and plays the VP card—🤮

It would appear Christo-fascism has its appeal to devout Christians long accustomed to authoritarian strongmen. Sadly, many newcomers equate the Democratic Party with the far-left (radical socialism or communism) - betraying a facile understanding of contemporary American politics and culture. ✌️

Baldwin: Our farmers are facing incredible headwinds. A lot of the fertilizer inputs come from Canada. Those have shot up because of tariffs. About a quarter of all farmers use the ACA for their health care coverage. This president is just contributing to the headwinds that our farmers are facing.

Entirely predictable.
Entirely of their own making.

It's disturbing to see Hispanics arresting other Hispanics, as if they consider themselves superior to those they are apprehending.

In your zeal to muddy Pritzker, you conveniently overlooked wealthier Illinoisans. For the sake of balance, here are the top five:

Lukas Walton -- $39.8 billion
Patrick Ryan -- $10 billion
Neil Bluhm -- $8.7 billion
Mark Walter -- $7.3 billion
Ty Warner -- $6.5 billion

Gov. Pritzker on Trump's threat to jail him: "I am not afraid. Do I think he could do it? He might. As I've said before, come and get me....I will stand up for the law and the constitution."

Translation: We're launching a ground invasion of Gaza and Israel.

Greetings from the happiest country in the world.

The stakes are high and the time is now.

Trump's militarized crackdown on dissent is a threat to our very democracy.

October 18 we stand against authoritarian overreach and we send a LOUD message: #NoKings social.demcast.com/s/UX0uJ2qz

Pritzker: "If the Constitution means anything -- and I guess we all are questioning that right now -- the Insurrection Act cannot be invoked ... they just want troops on the ground because they want to militarize especially blue cities in blue states."
