America's richest 10% now hold 60% of the nation's wealth.

The bottom half of America? It holds just 6%.

Wealth inequality is eating this country alive.

And they wonder why no one is watching anymore.

My advice: Support independent media.
CNN: You may not like his style or approach to diplomacy, but if he does successfully push China back w/ regard to influence in the Americas, could this threat be worth angering Panama?

Author Roald Dahl's daughter Olivia died from measles in 1962, before there was a measles vaccine. His words are haunting.

A vaccine was developed in 1986, and children were saved from misery and death.

Republicans have made vaccines a symbol of the "deep state." Their stupidity will bring pain.

How is that a publication like Rolling Stone gets it right when so many other news orgs are failing at real journalism & keeping it real—and so damn obvious about it?

At least one person at CNN gets it.

“I think a lot of it can be explained by the viewers making a decision that they just don’t like what we’re doing,” said a CNN political journalist who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they are not authorized to comment. “The viewers are pretty smart.”

"I was recruited at a very young age from Mar-a-Lago and entrapped in a world that I didn't understand and I've been fighting that very world to this day and I won't stop fighting, I will never be silenced, until these people are brought to justice."

This is so true. Getting rid of T**** (the one whose name I won’t mention), will not be the solution. What AOC says below is true. Be in this for the long haul, Fellow Citizens. We have a lot of work to do. 🇺🇸

From Munich to Moscow to Mar-a-Lago, the road to fascism is lined with "Christian" nationalists insisting that you are overreacting.

Louder for those in the back.

You can call it "paying a 17 year old for sex" as much as you want.

But, the word you are looking for is "rape."

SAG-AFTRA has released a statement in support of Blake Lively.

I cannot tell you how rare this is given that there are two actors involved in this matter.

Usually they say they’re investigating, etc.

Remarkable.

I watch the bizarre ramblings by trump about buying Greenland, and seizing the Panama Canal, and I honestly wonder how the leaders of any country can take us seriously.

He comes off as the drunken buffoon in the bar at last call. It's so fucking embarrassing.

I stand with unionized Starbucks workers, who are on strike in at least 12 states for better wages and working conditions.

Until Starbucks strikes a fair bargain with its workers and ceases its union-busting behavior, I'll continue to boycott the company.

Please stop referring to statutory rape as “sexual relations with a 17-year old girl.”

Matt Gaetz raped a 17-year old girl.

No country should have a musk or a trump, an mtg, a bobo or a gaetz. No country should have uneducated, immoral assholes as 'leaders' ... why isnt this a law of humanity??
