Progressive. I hate bigots, most Republicans, and money in politics. Elite-level competitive weightlifter. #resist

It’s hard to get political news to break through to most Americans. But Facebook is flooded right now with this clip of Scott Bessent suggesting normal families own 5+ homes. A rare viral moment capturing how out of touch the GOP is with economic concerns.

The equation is simple: you can’t afford healthcare anymore because ICE agents are making 6-figure salaries and $50k signing bonuses. The money is not marked for life, liberty or happiness. It is set aside for state suppression.

A 5% wealth tax on 200 billionaires worth $2 trillion in California isn’t scary. They’d still be worth $1.9 trillion. What’s scary is 1 out of 4 cancer patients in America either declare bankruptcy or lose their homes to eviction or foreclosure due to medical debt. That’s scary.

Trump’s AI and crypto czar David Sacks says the proposal in California to implement a one-time 5% tax on billionaire wealth is "scary." On CNBC the billionaire said: “This is this is not a tax, this is an asset seizure."

On Jan. 21, 2010, Citizens United changed our country by letting unlimited, secret money flood our political system. Sixteen years later, we’re still living with the consequences: more corporate money, less transparency, and a system that works better for the wealthy and well-connected than for hardworking Americans. We need to change that.

UNFORGIVEABLE: A Minnesota doctor just revealed Renée Good still had a pulse 8 minutes after she was shot by an ICE agent. A physician on scene offered to administer aid and was denied. In any courtroom, preventing medical aid after using deadly force isn’t just cruel, it’s an aggravating factor.

Here are two new numbers every American should know: $4 billion – how much Trump and his family have profited off the presidency in just a year. $1,600 – how much rising prices cost the average family during that same year. Corruption, plain and simple.

NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital CEO pay: $26.3 million Montefiore CEO pay: $16.7 million Mount Sinai CEO pay: $5.4 million Let’s be clear: These hospitals are not going broke. They can afford to provide their nurses with benefits and safe patient ratios.

Sen. WHITEHOUSE: Billionaire spending in our elections is up 160 times since Citizens United. Just 100 families poured a record-breaking $2.6 billion into federal elections in 2024. I don’t know how democracy survives in that environment.

16 years ago, SCOTUS ruled in Citizens United, allowing the ultra-rich to flood elections with dark money. Since then, billionaires have taken over our gov’t and screwed over working people. It’s time to pass my We the People Amendment to FINALLY reverse this disastrous ruling.

Sixteen years ago, the Supreme Court decided that corporations are people under the First Amendment. Today, sold-out politicians block progress on all fronts to appease their corporate donors. Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day.

Donald Trump has failed to make your life more affordable. The Republican economy has been a complete disaster. And the American people know it.
