Kroger, which wants to buy yet ANOTHER grocery chain:
-Ranks among the largest companies with employees dependent on Medicaid & SNAP
-Paid its CEO $14M last year, 417x its median worker's pay of just $34,552
-Spent $12.3B on stock buybacks since 2019
This is what corporate greed looks like.

Earlier this year, DOJ celebrated a win after a federal judge simply ordered Connecticut to respond to its voter roll lawsuit.
Now, months later, that same Trump-appointed judge has denied DOJ’s demand for the state’s unredacted voter rolls. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Trump DOJ took a victory lap in Connecticut. Then it became their 16th straight voter roll loss
The ruling presents an awkward reversal for DOJ officials who treated an early procedural order in the case as though they had already won on the merits.

Did you know in other countries you don’t see ads for pharma drugs? Why? Because they’re not for profit. When you’re sick and go to the doctor, they prescribe what you need, and it’s paid for.
We could have that. Instead, we get cage matches on the White House lawn from transphobic sacks of garbage.
