Liz Cheney: “If House GOP wants new Jan 6 hearings, bring it on. Let’s replay every witness & all the evidence from last year. But this time, those members who sought pardons and/or hid from subpoenas should sit on the dais so they can be confronted on live TV with the unassailable evidence.”
Right now, someone making $160,000/year pays the same amount into Social Security as someone making $16,000,000,000. That doesn’t make ANY sense. By raising the cap on payroll taxes for the wealthy, we can increase Social Security by $200/month and fund the program through 2095.
BREAKING: Another MASS SHOOTING has taken place this evening in the James G. Blaine schoolyard in Philadelphia's Strawberry Mansion section. If that doesn't disgust you enough, the victims were a 2-year-old girl, 13-year-old boy, 15-year-old boy, and two 16-year-old boys.
As Republicans spend their time literally writing laws to make the AR-15 our "National Gun," Democrats are trying to write laws to ban that very gun and make sure our children don't have to worry about dying, playing in schoolyards.
It's time we elect people who care about our kids instead of people who merely write laws to get under Democrats' skin.
PHOTO OF THE DECADE!
Nothing says “strong leader” more than President Biden sneaking into Kyiv on Presidents Day, to meet with President Zelensky in the midst of war.
As air-raid sirens blared around them the two men stood firm and showed that Democracy will never fall to Vladimir Putin.
Jimmy Carter shows that it’s the whole of your life that matters, not just what you do in your time of power and fame. He devoted his post-presidency to helping others, defending the rights of oppressed groups despite blowback, and loving his wife. A good man, a good American.
Norfolk Southern cut 9,600 jobs and boosted shareholder payouts by 4,500% in the years leading up to the Ohio train disaster.
Folks, this is what corporate greed looks like.
Former President Carter is so under-appreciated:
-In the 1960’s he supported civil rights, which hurt his early political career in Georgia.
-Jimmy and Rosalyn Carter are the longest married president and first lady ever.
- Jimmy Carter won a Nobel Peace Prize
-In 2006, he was instrumental in reforming the U.N. Commission on Human Rights, now the U.N. Human Rights Council.
- At 95-years-old he continued to build homes with Habitat for Humanity as seen below.
Best wishes President Carter!
In America today, the top 15 Wall Street hedge fund managers make more money in a single year than every kindergarten teacher in America.
That is absurd. Let's finally give educators a raise — let's start by paying public school teachers a minimum of at least $60,000 a year.
BREAKING: This video was posted of empty book shelves by a Florida teacher.
The teacher has just been fired. His termination came less than 24 hrs after @RonDeSantisFL was asked about this video.
Thanks @JuddLegum for noticing!
Don't you dare RESHARE it!
CEO pay is out of control. Just look at Amazon.
The company’s chief executive made $212.7 million in compensation in 2021 while the typical worker received $32,855.
That's a ratio of 6,474 to 1.
This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.
I do not think we should accept it as 'normal' in our society that billionaires get massive tax breaks while teachers in this country have to work a second job just to make ends meet.
We must pay all teachers in America at least $60,000.
Can we please settle this debate already? There is no labor shortage. There is a living wage shortage, a hazard pay shortage, a child care shortage, a paid sick leave shortage, and a health care shortage.
After Ron Desantis' idiotic book banning laws, this book about Roberto Clemente, which touches on how he was discriminated against, has been removed from Florida public school shelves.
Don't you dare buy this book on Amazon or RETWEET the link:
