U.S. billionaires got an astounding $1.5 TRILLION richer in the first year of Trump's second term.
Remember — this is happening as they get even more tax cuts in exchange for the social safety net being cut for everyone else.

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today.
