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.

Wait… but Trump said our concerns about AI taking over the world and destroying humanity are a “HOAX.” And efforts to restrict AI and data centers are part of a “SICK conspiracy.”

Chicago's Mariachi Herencia de México played the anthem before MNF, a first at Soldier Field. The crowd cheered. A MAGA account replied that Mexicans "have their own country and national anthem." The band is from Chicago. ¡Órale! 🎺

Again, abolishing ICE is not a radical stance. A government agency that is shooting people in the street should be shut down. Period.

How about a law that all Data Centers must operate entirely off grid using renewable energy. And another requiring their cooling mechanisms use only closed loop cooling systems. How about if taxpayers don't end up paying the bills.

Think of Trump as a boil — an infected pustule on the giant ass of the American system. The boil would have become infected eventually because of deeper flaws in how the system has evolved. Let me introduce you to the first piece of why our system is failing: Jamie Dimon.

This is sabotage. Tax the rich!
A graphic with a Social Security card with a gas meter close to E/empty. The text says, "THE IMMEDIATE SOCIAL SECURITY CRISIS ISN'T A FUNDING SHORTFALL - IT'S THE CUSTOMER SERVICE MELTDOWN CAUSED BY ELON MUSK'S DOGE CUTS. OFFICES UNDERSTAFFED. PHONES UNANSWERED, DELAYS EVERYWHERE. AMERICANS ARE BEING BLOCKED FROM ACCESSING THE BENEFITS THEY'VE ALREADY EARNED. MEANWHILE, THE WEALTHIEST AMERICANS STOP PAYING INTO SOCIAL SECURITY AFTER $184,500-AND PAY NOTHING AT ALL ON INVESTMENT INCOME. LIFT THAT CAP AND APPLY IT TO ALL INCOME, AND YOU DON'T JUST FIX THE SHORTFALL-YOU STRENGTHEN AND EXPAND BENEFITS. THIS ISN'T A CRISIS OF SCARCITY. IT'S SABOTAGE."
