Dolly Parton was one of the great entertainers of our era. She was not only a talented musician & songwriter, but a lifelong philanthropist and advocate for literacy, education, LGBTQ+ rights, healthcare and disaster relief.
Her music and humanity touched millions. She will be sorely missed.

Jeff Bezos has $222 billion.
If he paid my wealth tax this year, we could fund insulin in America for everyone who needs it plus free school lunch for every kid in Texas—and have plenty of money left over.
And Bezos would still have $215 billion dollars to spare.
Ok, Jamie: Let me clear things up for you.
If my 5% wealth tax on billionaires was enacted you’d owe $135 million more in taxes & a family of 4 making $150,000 or less would receive a $12,000 payment.
Oh, and you’d still be worth more than $2.5 billion. Seems pretty fair to me.
The Ultra-Millionaire Tax Act would generate over $6 trillion over the next decade—without raising taxes on 99.85% of American households.
This wealth tax for millionaires and billionaires could pay for universal child care, free community college, Medicare expansion, and more.
Marco Rubio: “Just because you’re born on U.S. soil doesn’t make you a citizen. Your parents must be U.S. citizens.”
Grok: “Marco Rubio was born in Miami in 1971. His parents became citizens in 1975. Rubio is a beneficiary of birthright citizenship.”
The Democratic shutdown?!
Dude, you have the the House, the Senate, and the presidency. The Democrats are without power. You just turned down a bill passed unanimously in the Senate to pay American workers. Blame yourself!
Sen. John Kennedy admits on Fox News that the Republicans and Democrats reached a deal to fund TSA, but Trump said, “No. No deals with the Democrats.”
Kennedy says, “It would have worked. We could have had TSA paid by the end of the week.”
This is the Trump shutdown!
It would have cost $30 Billion to extend the ACA healthcare tax credits for 1 year, making health insurance more affordable for millions of Americans.
Instead, Republicans burned through that money in just 3 weeks on a war of choice half way around the world.
UK activist group ‘Led By Donkeys’ released a video showing members labeling Larry Ellison’s superyacht “The Trump Propagandist,” targeting his support for Trump and alleged use of media influence to shape politics.
