Trump, his Cabinet, & administration (along with much of the GOP Congress) are like an intentionally provocative reality show, with extreme wacky characters & unbelievable scenarios. Maybe it would be entertaining if it wasn't so fricking scary & dangerous.

It’s corruption on steroids in plain sight. He doesn’t even try to hide that he’s looting US and cashing in on insider trading. He’s the most corrupt president in American history.

Today's jobs report is a reminder that tax cuts for corporations and the rich don’t create jobs or grow the economy. What's required is investment in working people — and better wages. When workers have money to spend, the economy grows and businesses create more jobs. Remember this.

#ResistanceUnited #ProudBlue #ONEV1 #DV1 Thank you, Sen. Warren, for your fierce commitment to the working families. These are never radical ideas. They are COMMON SENSE. Only one party is willing to fight on the right hills. Please Vote Blue: Federal, State, Local.
Sen. Elizabeth Warren: 10 Hills I’ll die on:

- Big corporations shouldn’t be able to buy elections
- A good education shouldn’t just be for rich kids
- Getting sick shouldn’t mean going broke
- We should invest in child care like we do our roads and libraries
- Billionaires should pay their fair share so everyone else gets a fair shot
- Homes are for people, not corporations
- Abortion is health care 
- Americans should not have to subsidize the cost of data centers
- No one should be able to use public office to make themselves richer
- We need to put put power back in the hands of working people

Pathological liars just can’t stop lying. Trump: “I’m the only president that donated his salary. They pay me $550,000 a year.” The presidential salary is $400,000. JFK and Hoover donated their salaries and didn’t rob the country blind.
