BREAKING: The top 0.1% of Americans now hold more than six times as much wealth as the entire bottom half of the country.

The top 0.1% control about $28 trillion, roughly 15% of all U.S. wealth.

The bottom 50% hold about 2.5%.

This is what billionaire ownership of the media means:

Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta shut down the No Kings account for hours during the height of their protests.

Meta suppressed accounts supporting Brazil President Lula da Silva in the recent election.

Larry Ellison’s TikTok blocked advertising for a documentary criticizing Elon Musk.

Fight back. Defeat oligarchy. Preserve democracy.

I don’t want flying cars or folding iPhones or data centers.

I want an end to mass shootings, healthcare for all, free and fair elections, a government free from Christian nationalism, and our planet and people to be cared for.

We encourage other CR Chapters (especially in Ohio) to make this endorsement. Show some courage
Vivek has contempt for the American values of well roundedness & joie de vivre, and he wants Ohio as a vessel for his national ambitions. You'll live if a Dem is Governor for 4 years.

Elon Musk spent $290 million to elect Trump. It paid off.

Since his election, Musk got $696 billion richer & became the world’s 1st trillionaire.

But that’s not enough.

Now, Musk is spending $366 million to keep Republicans in control of Congress.

STOP MUSK. STOP OLIGARCHY.

[unusual_whales @unusual_whales]

BREAKING: Elon Musk has poured more than $275 million into Republicans’ fight to keep control of Congress, all since July, per FT

That makes him by far the largest known donor in the midterms.

Where it went:

$158 million to the Senate Leadership Fund, the main super PAC backing GOP Senate candidates
$76 million to his own America PAC
$20 million to the Congressional Leadership Fund, the top House GOP super PAC
$10 million to the Republican Governors Association
$2 million to the Republican Attorneys General Association

The $158 million alone is one of the largest political donations in U.S. history, and more than the Democrats’ rival Senate super PAC raised from all its donors that quarter.

Things we learned recently:

-Data centers are bot farms

-Bot farms sway elections

-Billionaires want data centers

Do the math.
