If my salary tethering law -- whereby the top-earning employee of any company of 50+ emplyees engaged in interstate commerce couldn't make (in salary, bonus, deferred pay, stock options...) > 50x the lowest-earning F/T emplyee -- were enacted today, 90% of workers would see an immed pay increase.

Ex Honduran prez Hernandez wanted to "shove the drugs right up the noses of the gringos"
Plotted to send as much cocaine as possible into the US.
It's because of Hernandez that Honduras became one of the largest trans-shipment points in the world for US-bound cocaine.
Trump pardons

🧵Former Honduran President Hernandez was convicted in April 2022.
But the investigation/prosecution began during Trump's first term and concluded under Biden.
Just read some of the standouts from the indictment below to know what a corrupt narco thug Hernandez is.
This is who Trump is pardoning.

A Maine woman retired early to be a caregiver for her terminally ill mother.
Now she’s facing cancer herself, and because ACA subsidies won’t be extended, she is losing her healthcare.
Her costs are going up for $49,000 a year.
This isn’t healthcare, it’s eugenics.

There is an extraordinary sense of entitlement behind the belief that there ought to be political party that aligns 100% with your own opinions.

Today there was a planned federal operation in lower Manhattan.

How low we have sunk as a country. The US Department of Defense is now run by a rabid war criminal.
Ordering the execution of helpless survivors of an attack is ALWAYS a war crime, whether they civilian or military.
Pure, mindless, barbarism.

Commanders then ordered a second strike to finish them off.

Hegseth. Is. A. War. Criminal.
Pete Hegseth committed a war crime and then doubled down.
He instructed the military to murder civilians at sea and when there were injured victims he gave the order to kill them all.
Surviving victims were brutally dismembered at sea by US missiles.

If you want Pete Hegseth to be able to kill anybody he wants anytime he wants while serving up “trust me bro” as justification with zero oversight from Congress, who gives the Trump admin a blank check to do whatever it wants, then vote for the cowardly Republican enablers.
