I've never seen anything like this. The Trump admin just granted preliminary approval of a federal bank charter to the family's crypto firm World Liberty Financial. Remember: Trump raked in almost $800 million from WLF last year. No president has used their power to profit the way Trump has.

Alphabet, Amazon, Meta, and Tesla paid just 4.9% of their profits in federal corporate taxes in 2025. They've seen their collective tax bill drop by $95B thanks to two rounds of Trump tax cuts. Meanwhile, tech layoffs in 2026 have already surpassed 2025. Trickle-down economics was always a scam.

This is why there’s so much confusion around elections right now. Black people make up over 33% of Louisiana’s population, yet elected officials are pushing maps that would dilute that power and weaken representation. Make sure you're ready: blackvotersmatterfund.org/vote #VotingRights

Inflation hit 3.8% last month, the highest rate in three years. Gas prices alone rose 5.4% from March to April due to Trump's war on Iran. And the jump in grocery prices this past month was the highest in nearly four years. Wages are now officially lagging behind inflation. "New Golden Age."

The GOP officially unveiled its reconciliation bill last week, which includes up to $70 billion for Trump’s mass deportation machine and $1 billion for his gaudy ballroom. Some Republicans are already wavering, so we need to keep up the pressure.

Without ACA subsidies that Trump and Republicans let expire, 1 in 5 ACA enrollees have been dropped from coverage after failing to pay premiums. It would cost about $30 billion to extend the subsidies for a year. Meanwhile, Trump’s war on Iran has already cost at least $29 billion. Priorities.
