β€œOur duty, as I’ve come to understand it, is to stop brutality. Our responsibility is to hold the powerful accountable. Our challenge is to stand up to the abuse of power. Our moral obligation is to protect the vulnerable.” - Robert Reich

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1

CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 280-to-1

Nothing has ever trickled down.

Trump is trying to sell his domestic policy bill with lies. Let’s break them down.

Trump said, β€œWe’re not doing any cutting of anything meaningful. The only thing we’re cutting is waste, fraud and abuse.” False.

A worker making $50,000 a year contributes to Social Security with 100% of their income.

A CEO making $20 million a year contributes to Social Security with less than 1% of their income.

Who agrees it’s time to scrap the cap?

Social Security Says DOGE Ruling Could Force Agency to Shut Down The Trump administration is threatening to all but shut down the Social Security Administration in response to a judge’s ruling blocking activities by Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency β€” an action that could delay payments to millions of beneficiaries caught in the middle of the legal battle.

The Trump regime is threatening to shut down the Social Security Administration in response to a court ruling blocking DOGE from further infiltrating the agency.

If your Social Security check is late or doesn't arrive at all, remember who is to blame.

Medicare Advantage companies have spent over $330 MILLION in the last 5 years to ruin Medicare so they can profit.

Their privatized plans have cost taxpayers more than $600 BILLION in overpayments.

If Dr. Oz is confirmed as CMS Administrator, he'd likely expand Medicare Advantage.

Millionaires stop paying into Social Security today.

That’s because they've now made $176,100, and hit the contributions cap.

Billionaires made that much about an hour into the year.

Elon Musk did in just 15 minutes.

Tax the rich. Scrap the cap.

Our seniors EARN Medicare in order to guarantee health care after they retire.

We owe it to seniors to protect Medicare!

Donald Trump is not fit to be President of the United States of America. His presence in the Oval Office is a stain on the legacy of this country.
