CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 325-to-1 Trickle-down economics was always a sham. Nothing has ever trickled down.

THIS SHOULD BE NATIONAL NEWS This has been public for more than a week, and I can’t find a single national TV report. Just local. Why? REPORT: A female Cornell student alleges she was pressured into taking ketamine, then sexually assaulted for hours by multiple Chi Phi fraternity members in 2024.

Thousands of protesters gathered around the Kennedy Center on Friday night to showcase the obscured marble facade that remains concealed and protest Trump’s threats to destroy the building further. Just watch these beautiful people chanting: “KEEP YOUR TINY HANDS OFF!” 🩷

Oh. My. Goodness. Can they put this on billboards ALL OVER TEXAS? Because they should know, before casting their votes, that Ken Paxton and Greg Abbott spent the past decade letting China buy up 162,000 acres of Texas soil. Seems important.🚨

THIS HAS TO STOP. MAGA Mike Johnson says they “inherited” record-high inflation. They didn’t. Inflation was 3.0% when Trump took office. Today: 3.4%. The 9.1% he keeps citing is from June 2022. That’s four years ago. You don’t get to govern on a four-year-old number. That’s not inheritance.

Wages of unionized workers are 13% higher than their nonunion counterparts. But unions also set a higher pay standard that all workers enjoy. In high-union-density states, median household income is $12,000 higher than in low-union-density states. This is why unions are vital.

Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

Target paid its CEO $21.8M last year — 794x the median Target worker's pay of $27,506. Target has also spent $13.9B on stock buybacks since 2019, while remaining among the largest employers of Medicaid and SNAP recipients in America. This is what I mean by a rigged economy.

It's actually less than that! Overstaying a visa is not a crime, but speeding and jaywalking are. It's a civil violation, which is why the penalty can't be imprisonment or fines. Or shouldn't be, though they've created this detention camp loophole like fascists do.

One way to honor Dolly’s legacy: get your covid vaccine this year! www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2020/...

Dolly Parton helped fund Moderna’s vaccine. It began with a car crash and an unlikely friendship.
“Without a doubt in my mind, her funding made the research toward the vaccine go 10 times faster than it would be without it,” physician Naji Abumrad said of his friend.
