Amazon reportedly failed to create any new jobs at its HQ2 in Virginia last year, despite millions of state tax incentives. The company has cut 30,000 jobs since last October — while saving $4 billion in taxes under Trump's Big Ugly Bill. Trickle-down economics is a hoax.

Rather than examining why the GOP is investing such enormous political capital in a bill that strips voting rights from millions of Americans, the media focuses on whether it might backfire politically. I want to warn you and I want there to be a record. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/ther...
