America's 813 billionaires now collectively hold a record $5.8 trillion.

That’s more than the wealth of the entire bottom half of the US, roughly 65 million households.

It's not radical to tax the rich. It's radical to allow this level of wealth concentration to continue.

@Austen this is so disingenuous lmao that’s not how it works

It's Tax Day, which seems like a good time to debunk the biggest myths about taxing the rich.

Why are we talking about whether paying fast food workers a better wage will drive up the cost of a Big Mac instead of asking how much McDonald's CEO's $17.8M salary is driving up the cost?

In 1922, a team of scientists visited Toronto General Hospital, where wards housed numerous diabetic children.

Many of these children were in a comatose state and on the brink of death due to diabetic ketoacidosis.

As a result of the amount of deaths, scientists moved swiftly and proceeded to inject the children with a new purified extract of insulin.

As they commenced injecting the final comatose child, the first one to receive the injection started to regain consciousness.

Subsequently, one by one, all the children emerged from their diabetic comas.

During the early 1920s, Frederick Banting, Charles Best and John Macleod discovered insulin.

Both Banting and Macleod were awarded Nobel Prizes in 1923.

James Collip played a crucial role in refining insulin, which was instrumental in enabling its effective application in diabetes treatment.

Banting declined to have his name included on the patent and opted to sell it to the University of Toronto for a mere $1.

He believed it unethical to seek profit from a discovery destined to save countless lives.

“Insulin belongs to the world, not to me," he said.

In 2019, the average cost was $58 per insulin fill, typically for a 30-day supply.

@Graham_Couch They have been a tough watch for a while. My biggest complaint is the team doesn’t get better throughout the season. Our standard used to be competing for Big 10 championship every year but we don’t appear to be holding ourselves to that anymore.

This is the most eloquent argument against Christofascism (Christian nationalism) I've ever heard. This impressive young man's name is James Talarico and he represents the state of Texas. He is the future of the Democratic Party. #Christofascism #ChristianNationalism

2.7 million jobs were created last year — more than during any year under my predecessor.

@bobball Lost me at he can’t “afford” to lose credibility, common man these are the same dudes who chopped up a guy in a Saudi embassy. They do whatever they want.

@FantasyInjuryT Looks like it could be an IT band injury. Those take a long time to heal.

In 1994, I took a lot of heat for this speech warning that the American middle class was in danger. That was 29 years ago this week. Watch and tell me if I was wrong.
