Effective tax rate paid by Jeff Bezos from 2014 to 2018: 0.98% Effective 2025 federal tax rate paid by Amazon: 1.4% Typical tax rate paid by the average American: 14.5% Just thought I should point that out.

I find it interesting that most if not all of the casualties of American service people in Iran so far seem to be from “friendly fire” or a crash in “friendly skies”.

Trump has shredded the Constitution. He's taken an axe to checks and balances. He's using the presidency to line his own pockets. This is why we need to make sure that on March 28 — two weeks from today— we march across America in the largest demonstration in the nation’s history. NoKings.org

Over half of the corporations bankrolling Trump’s vanity ballroom are facing (or recently faced) federal investigations into wrongdoing — including violating workers’ rights or misleading consumers. They also have a combined $279 BILLION in federal contracts. Follow the money.

He orders extrajudicial killings. He sent troops into our cities. He terrorizes citizens with ICE raids. He raised taxes without congressional approval. He has ruined American farmers and ranchers. He plans to starve the vulnerable. He demolished our house. Remove him from office.
