@AOC How about Beyoncé and JayZ? Did they not earn their billions?
English
Someone can certainly *make* a billion dollars. That’s not the same thing as earning.
Growing fast and disrupting markets also often means chasing and wielding market power, political influence, and scale.
Take Airbnb. They heavily lobby politicians against passing housing laws to protect working class residents because it’s bad for their business model.
Airbnb could not exist at its current scale and size without the housing market destabilizations, displacements, and exploits that are supercharging the evictions of working people everywhere from Puerto Rico to Jackson Hole.
Now young people are planning for a future where they will never be able to afford to own a home while others have 20 and live off renting it out to them at extortionate rates with zero protections. Yes, a tiny amount of people can make billions of dollars doing that. And millions of everyday Americans are bearing the cost.

Sure you can earn a billion dollars. I've been teaching people how to do it for 20 years. The way you do it is to start a company that grows fast. You don't have to do anything bad to make a company grow fast. You just have to make something people want. paulgraham.com/ace.html

Happy Tax Day. The top 1% pays 40% of all income taxes, the top 10% pays 72% and the top 25% pays 87% of all income taxes. Meanwhile the bottom 50% pays ZERO income taxes. For all of you actually paying taxes, do you think your tax dollars are being spent well?

Scott, your entire existence is to suck the nuts and huff the farts of the 2 worst international terrorists in existence, Trump & Netanyahu. All while making the smuggest douchiest face of all time. CNN is a disgrace for even pretending like you're a serious person.

He spent half his time defending rapists and murderers in Gaza and the other half defending rapists and murderers in Minnesota. A pattern emerged.

@krystalball What’s actually pathetic is you are your loser husband who wears sunglasses on camera thinking that you are patriotic Americans.
English
This is pathetic but unsurprising from Gavin. ICE’s deployments are the definition of state-sponsored terrorism. They are literally intended to terrorize communities Trump wants to punish.
Daily Wire@realDailyWire
.@GavinNewsom WALKS BACK calling ICE operations "state-sponsored terrorism": Shapiro: Your press office said it was "state-sponsored terrorism." Newsom: "Yeah..." Shapiro: "Our ICE officers obviously are not terrorists…" Newsom: "Yeah, I think that's fair."
English
Hamas is a terrorist organization that calls for the genocide of Jews.
No matter your political beliefs, this type of rhetoric is disgusting, it's dangerous, and it has no place in New York.

Boy u can’t say nothin in this world nowadays😂, that’s why I been in my own lane my own world n put the way. People love to take Shxt completely outta context to rationalize a statement in their own head that makes sense to them… what a world
English
@ramit That’s simply not true. The more money rich people have, the more renovations they do on their house, the more cars they buy, the more they hire help to clean their house, take care of their lawn, etc. All that is creating jobs.
English
I'm rich & this is a lie. When politicians lower my taxes, I don't create additional jobs (only demand does that). I simply save that money
Trickle-down economics has been repeatedly debunked yet conservatives lie to you so they can give their wealthy overlords more tax cuts
Peter Schiff@PeterSchiff
If you want to help the poor, then lower taxes on the rich. What helps the poor is a productive economy that makes goods and services more abundant and less expensive, while creating employment opportunities. The capital investment that makes that possible comes from the rich.

@IanCarrollShow @laralogan Try again. Protesting in front of a temple is straight up anti-Semitic. No intellectual argument against it. If you have a problem with Israel then go protest in front of their embassy
English
Israel murdering thousands of women and children, and creating a child trafficking and blackmail scheme probably contributed.
Personally I suspect some of the more extreme people in this mob probably aren’t there organically.
But actions have blowback. And the vast majority of Americans that are anti Israel are regular Americans who are not violent. They just want the Epstein files released and for our tax dollars to stop being stolen by a foreign government.
Until that’s happened the “war” over there hasn’t ended.
The conflict with Palestine hasn’t been a war for decades- it’s just them bombing civilians indiscriminately hoping to hit a terrorist or two to justify their ethnic cleansing. And theyve run out of bombs and moved on to just straight ethnic cleansing.
The war Bibi actually declared on camera was against the American people and any American who doesn’t support his foreign state and he specifically said they have to use the tools of battle and propaganda against us.
So I would implore you to think more critically about what you see online.
Oh yeah- and they killed Charlie.
English
So now there is no war in Gaza, we can focus on the real, openly stated objective: the murder of every last living Jewish person & annihilation of the state of Israel.
How did we get here?
I want no part of that.

@BrockHuard Victim victim victim. East coast bias is a coping mechanism you created out of thin air. Aaron Judge had one of the best statistical seasons ever. Way better that Cal. Way better. What a joke that you want your MVP to not be able to hit over .250

The Mariners are still in SE Alaska when it comes to the respect of their stars
Cal did something never done in baseball, a switch hitting catcher obliterating a record that will never be broken
ECB is real
East Coast Bias needs to stop
Cal is our MVP

@SeattleSports @BrockHuard How do you argue for an MVP for a guy hitting .250? Make it make sense.

@krystalball Why are the parents who illegally entered our country and therefore put that innocent child in harms way the demons?

They dumped pepper spray on a 1 year old baby. Demons. Actual demons.
LongTime🤓FirstTime👨💻@LongTimeHistory
ICE pours large canister of pepper spray directly into family car—hitting 1-year-old baby. "They were simply shopping at Sam's Club," said Matt, who filmed this video. "ICE agents drove by and sprayed pepper spray directly inside—where their baby and 16-year-old sister sat." "We got the family to Lawndale Christian Health Center for care and support." The incident occurred outside Sam's Club near 26th Street and Ogden Avenue in Cicero, Illinois. #DemsUnited

Disgraceful. Cheney was a monster and a war criminal who helped set us on the path to Trump's lawlessness.
Kamala Harris@KamalaHarris
I am saddened to learn of the passing of former Vice President Dick Cheney. Vice President Cheney was a devoted public servant, from the halls of Congress to many positions of leadership in multiple presidential administrations. His passing marks the loss of a figure who, with a strong sense of dedication, gave so much of his life to the country he loved. Doug and I are keeping Lynne, their daughters Liz and Mary, and the entire Cheney family in our thoughts during this difficult time.

Despite our best efforts, we have not been able to reach a fair deal, and starting today, Disney programming will not be available on YouTube TV. This means you will no longer be able to watch channels like ABC and ESPN or access recordings from these networks in your Library.

Members, when we renew our contracts with network partners, we advocate for fair pricing to offer you the best TV experience. Our contract with Disney has reached its renewal date, and we'll not agree to terms that disadvantage our members while benefiting Disney’s TV products.

@jabolibaugh @SenWarren Have their parents and their families feed them. Real simple.

@SenWarren This is the problem with Republicans. They have no solutions. They just want to rip away these programs no matter what harm that may cause. If you don't like the SNAP program, what's your idea for feeding hungry kids? ACA? What's your healthcare plan?
