Reminder: Billionaires are not “self-made.” They’re made via a combination of inherited wealth, government subsidies, tax loopholes, labor exploitation, and policy failures.
Can we stop perpetuating a myth that blames the wealth gap on the choices of everyday Americans?
The national debt took 200 years to accumulate – 25% of this debt was added by the last administration alone.
President Biden cut the deficit by $1.7 trillion in just two years, and his budget will cut another $2 trillion over the next ten years.
Key takeaways from the Fox News scandal:
They fired people for telling the truth.
Hosts like Tucker Carlson and Sean Hannity pushed election fraud claims they privately knew were absurd.
For Murdoch only the money mattered.
And the biggest scandal:
No one is surprised
Tucker Carlson himself is peddling lies about January 6th. He’s not a journalist, he’s the headmaster of the conspiracy theory cosplay group of QAnon nutcases to radicalize the base. @TaraSetmayer nails it on @MSNBC.
Yana (Yara) Rykhlitska, 29, volunteer and paramedic of 93rd brigade, died near Bakhmut.
Yana was killed while evacuating the wounded - the ambulance she was in was shelled.
Eternal memory to Hero!
FYI #OPNation we didn’t know the gator was going to be killed (I was waiting for the “trapper”) and I didn’t even know it was dead (as opposed to tranquilized) until officer on scene said so. Sorry to those who were upset by it. We always try to be as sensitive as possible.
BREAKING: Newt Gingrich is now attacking Florida Republicans for trying to pass a bill requiring all bloggers who blog about Florida's governor Ron Desantis and all Florida law makers register with the government and tell them how they generate an income. For four years Gingrich helped promote Trump's fascism. He was warned, and yet he continued to promote Trumpism. DeSantis and Trump are one of the same. They want to give their voters and supporters freedom while taking freedom away from everyone else. That's how fascists operate.
President Biden’s legal authority to #CancelStudentDebt is clear. Trump used the same power when he was president, and we didn’t hear a peep from the GOP. But now they’re suing and delaying relief for the working class and middle class. It’s shameful.
BREAKING: Biden has just arrived in Selma, Alabama to commemorate the 58th Anniversary of "Bloody Sunday".
For those unaware, Here is a brief history lesson about Bloody Sunday:
- Bloody Sunday refers to the violent confrontation that took place on March 7, 1965, in Selma, Alabama.
- The event was a crucial moment in the Civil Rights Movement and highlighted the struggle for voting rights for African Americans.
- Civil rights activists including MLK Jr. and John Lewis, led a march from Selma to Montgomery to protest the discrimination faced by African Americans in Alabama.
- The group was met by state troopers and local law enforcement officers, who used brutal force to stop the peaceful protest.
- The troopers used tear gas, clubs, and whips on the protesters, many of whom were women and children,
- The incident was widely covered by the media and brought national attention to the Civil Rights Movement and the need for voting rights legislation.
58 years ago, 600 brave souls marched in Selma, Alabama to secure one of our most sacred freedoms: the freedom to vote. Today, we renew our commitment to protecting that freedom.

So, a MAGA “Christian” just told me that I’m “going to hell” for supporting trans people and drag queens. Asking my allies. Do you think I’m going to hell?
