Republicans’ midterm convention last night featured Ross Ulbricht, who was sentenced to life in prison for creating a digital drug market.
He’s one of the many white collar criminals pardoned by Trump, oftentimes in exchange for hefty donations.

Trump promised in 2024 he would deliver a "brand new economic boom".
Two years later, his economy is crumbling under record high debt and inflation.
He's running the country like he ran his businesses — right into the ground.

Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.
As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

Any sweeping systemic change you want to make in the United States has to begin with adding seats to the Supreme Court in 2029. No major reform bill will survive the current court. No civil rights law, no anti-corruption law, no wealth tax, nothing.

But I’m so exhausted I don’t even have

So we lie here.
