Poverty isn’t a moral failure—it’s the product of a broken capitalist system designed to funnel wealth upward. When the top 1% hoard resources while millions struggle, it exposes systemic greed, not personal shortcomings. Blaming individuals distracts from the real injustice.

My dad, who has lived under a dictatorship, knows one when he sees one. His first text this morning is that we are now officially in a dictatorship. It is all pretty grim.

Billionaires didn’t build this country—workers did. But somehow the people who hoard wealth get tax breaks, and the people who hold it all together can’t afford rent. That’s not just unfair—it’s violence dressed up in policy. We deserve better. And we won’t stop until we get it!

6 weeks ago today, planes flew a few hundred people to El Salvador, where they’re being held at CECOT — a place from which Salvadoran officials brag no one is ever released — at US expense. Their continued detention there is our continued shame.

At this juncture I’d like to point out: * we’re on the brink of a golden age of medical healing * there’s enough money in the world to solve every problem in the world * a united approach could stop the climate crisis But a small group of sociopaths seeking personal power are going to throw it away.

What happens when the wealthy pay their fair share in taxes like everyone else? We can invest in a stronger, fairer America — where every kid has a quality education and families aren’t bankrupted by one medical diagnosis.
