Why have so many people fallen behind? It's not because of immigrants, trans people, or any other bogeyman trotted out by the GOP. It's because corporations and billionaires rigged the system in their favor — and a bought-off political establishment let it happen. It's time to fix the system.

Remember: Wealth cannot be separated from power. We're seeing in real time how the extreme concentration of wealth is distorting our politics, rigging markets, and granting unprecedented power to a handful of people. Taxing the rich isn't just an economic issue, it's a defense of our democracy.

More than 500 U.S. citizens have been detained by ICE, according to ProPublica. 70% of ICE detainees have no criminal conviction. Trump’s promise to go after the “worst of the worst” was always a lie. It was always a pretext to terrorize Black and brown communities. Remember this.
