The richest man owns X.

The second and third richest men control Google.

The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.

The seventh richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros.

See the problem here?

You go to that fancy Italian restaurant — and who’s in the kitchen? Latinos.

You go to that fancy French restaurant — who’s in the kitchen? Latinos.

Latinos grow it, pick it, clean it, cook it, serve it, and do the dishes.

We are the backbone. Don’t fuck with us, we’re busy.

I say without hyperbole that this is the most brazenly corrupt action in US Presidential history. That it does not immediately lead to impeachment is a dangerous sign of how far the rule of law has declined.

For the first time in 80 years, the federal debt-to-GDP ratio is over 100%.

In the past, the rich used to pay higher taxes.

Now, the government pays the rich interest on a swelling debt, caused largely by lower taxes on the rich.

It's a big switcheroo.

There should be a law passed, and enforced, that we will no longer have for profit prisons of any kind! Ever again! Incentivized incarceration should be a crime against humanity and should be retroactively enforced! They know what they are doing is wrong!

A US citizen has apparently been shot by ICE agents in Minneapolis. I’m gathering information, but the situation on the ground is volatile.

ICE should leave now for everyone’s safety.

New year, same reminder: The recipe for economic growth isn’t tax cuts for the rich. It’s investment in our people — in health care, infrastructure and education — to build a strong middle class.

You don't grow the economy through trickle-down nonsense.
