In the $2 trillion 2017 tax cut, $.83 of every dollar went to the very richest Americans. We should repeal it immediately and then put back in the middle class tax cut. Slashing taxes on the very very rich is not fair taxation; it’s public theft.

Right, slashing taxes on the rich is really going to help the poor. After 40 years of trickle down economics devastating the middle class and creating the largest income inequality in 100 years, you’re still mouthing that malicious nonsense?

“...but they will behave!” This should send a chill up the spine of every American - because make no mistake about it, he is not joking.
The Real Polls are starting to look GREAT! We will be having an even bigger victory than that of 2016. The Radical Left Anarchists, Agitators, Looters, and just plain Lunatics, will not be happy, but they will behave!

Whether or not you trust me I have no control over, but the last thing I’ve been is “neoliberalized.”

People have been economically crushed for so long they’re too exhausted to even express outrage. This can only have tragic results, for them and for the country.
The lack of urgency from both major parties when it comes to delivering aid to regular people during the worst economic crisis maybe ever will go down in history.

What will it take to fix this? And what will it take for officialdom to admit that it needs to be fixed?
The mother of a 13-year-year old boy called Salt Lake City police and asked for a crisis intervention team to be sent for her son, who has Aspergers, because he was having “a mental breakdown.” Police shot him. #utpol kutv.com/news/local/mother-o…

Shameless prostitution of values. The epitome of an amoral corporate ethic and the immoral results it inevitably produces.

Attacking and undermining labor has been a core element of the corporatist strategy over the last 40 years. When I was a kid, my parents told me that crossing a picket line was one of the worst things you could possibly do. Today, people are too often like “Meh.”
Record numbers want to join a union and union favorability is at a multi-decade high. Yet union membership is down to just 10% because gop has aggressively attacked them and Dems have mostly stood by. Workers deserve power!! #solidarity #LaborDay google.com/amp/s/www.pbs.org…

Trying to figure out a more elegant word for bullshit. I said I wanted the women of Afghanistan to be part of the negotiations, and for that I do not apologize.

2/ When asked about the obvious immorality of our doing that, Secretary of State Pompeo said “Sometimes you have strategic partnerships with people who don’t share your values.” But that’s untrue. It simply means you have no values.

Truth is always a good look. The Americans and the Europeans and the Russians (the Allied Forces) stopped the Nazis.

Saudi Arabia could not be prosecuting the war in Yemen were it not for our aerial support. So technically, he has. We are at the very least an accomplice.

3/ Many of us (including Cornel West) are voting what is our top priority: defeating Trump. That doesn’t mean we’re defending anyone else. Many who say they don’t want to be “shamed” for their vote sure have no problem shaming me. Can we stop this?? We don’t always have to agree!
