Donald Trump wants a drone port and a bunker fortress and a snipers nest because he doesn’t plan on leaving and wants to use military weapons on Democratic protestors.

The amount of Amazon workers relying on SNAP and Medicaid has nearly tripled since 2020 — while Amazon’s annual profits soared by over 550%. It’s the same story everywhere: corporate profits are at record highs, while workers’ share of the economy is at a record low. We must unrig the system.

Deliberately crashing the American economy—costing American families well over $5,000 each—and then promising to pay those families back $5,000 but *only if* they keep letting him abuse them and the country for two more years... ...is some *seriously* dark, domestic-abuser shit.

The Trump administration has filed 36 emergency applications since last February, which have generated 31 conclusive rulings. In those 31 rulings, the Court has voted *for* Trump in whole or in part 27 times (87.1%), and against him four times (12.9%). Here's a chart covering all of these rulings:
A (messy) Excel spreadsheet tracking all of the Trump administration's emergency applications, when they were filed, when they were decided, what kind of ruling they produced, and how each justice voted.

A reminder for Democratic Party leadership: New research from Yale found that Medicare for All would save over 114,000 lives and $1 trillion a year. It's no surprise why the majority of Americans — including 90% of Democrats — support it.

No one can ever believe anything Trump pledges, says or puts in writing. With Trump, a deal is never a deal and nobody can count on the US for anything while he’s president. His word is garbage, agreements mean nothing, and he lies about everything.

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market. Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today. Four giants control 80% of meat processing. The evidence of corporate consolidation is everywhere. It means more power for them and less freedom for you.

HE'S NEVER LEAVING. HE'S PREPARING FOR WAR. One major clue is the creation of a ten-story Führerbunker below the White House that'll be topped with a massive sniper tower and drone port. Oh, and also HE STARTED AN ARMED REBELLION the last time he had to leave office. WAKE UP.

This is only the beginning. He has no plans to leave office or allow free elections. Nor are his plans hidden—they're all unfolding in plain sight. The Insurrection never ended and the Christofascists won't stop until our democracy is gone. Choose who you'll be in this moment.

Amazon, which saved $4B in taxes under Trump's Big Ugly Bill, has cut 30,000 jobs since last October. Verizon, which saved $2B, plans to cut 15,000 jobs this year. Meta, which saved $3B, plans to lay off 20% or more of its workforce. Trickle-down economics is a cruel joke.

The richest 0.1 percent of the global population are hiding nearly $3 trillion in offshore accounts to evade taxes — more than the wealth held by the entire bottom half of humanity. It would take about $93 billion per year to eradicate extreme hunger by 2030. Taxing the rich is a global necessity.
