A Chicago monument and a street are named for a Fascist with a capital "F."

For the record, Trump saying we will not talk about numbers of troops is a lie. Those numbers will very much be discussed by congress.

The US marginal corporate tax rate is 35%. With legal loopholes, it's more like 19%. With special exemptions or givebacks some corps pay 0%. https://t.co/m4pLHKKOQt

Paul Ryan and Republicans are flat out lying to you. Corporations pay avg. 19% effective tax rate, not 30% they fear-monger #RyanTownHall

Also, if you calculate the cost for each Wisconsin household, the conservative estimate is more like $1,439.

We need to start calling the Foxconn handout the "Foxconn Tax." Every voter in Wisconsin needs to know we'll be paying $519 per person.
