In their first 2 years, the Trump Administration are expected to spend nearly $2 Billion on vanity projects. That could cover #OH09‘s costs for: ⚫ 1 month of Rent ⚫ 1 month of Groceries ⚫ 1 month of ever rising Electric Bills ⚫ 1 year of Medical Care for every veteran . . . with change to spare.

DoorDash spent $1.4M trying to stop Zohran Mamdani from becoming mayor. This week's historic $131.5M enforcement action against DoorDash for underpaying NYC delivery workers shows why. Yet another reminder that the only thing that can beat organized money is organized people.

In a wage-theft settlement, DoorDash now has to pay its workers around 100 times what it spent trying to beat Zohran Mam

Scott Bessent is the living proof of the old joke that the easiest way to become a millionaire is to start with $2M and lose half of it. He turned a $5.7B fund into $537M of value before he transitioned to a job on the government dime.

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.

You can see why Hegseth and his flunkies didn't like jawdropping details like this one, from Korte's final Stars and Stripes story, about US Navy evacuees from Bahrain. www.stripes.com/branches/nav...
In one instance, early in the war, a mass text message went out to evacuees directing them to contact the Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society, a nonprofit that aims to assist military families during emergencies.

However, when one spouse called the phone number listed in the announcement, they were connected with the National Bank of Canada, the spouse

What folks miss is MAGA doesn't care if people think Trump cheated for the 1900th time. What worries is the image of an 80 yr old man wildly dependent on a clincially fangirlish 30-something who he appears to use as a kind of human emotional support blanket as his faculties & political power fade.
