This is so soul-destroying...
⚠️Afghanistan is on the brink of becoming the world's worst humanitarian crisis the UN has warned.
More than half of Afghans are now short of food, and the catastrophe will soon eclipse crises in Yemen and Syria.

You think that would teach them to create the most massive transfer of wealth into the hands of a tiny few people in over a hundred years? Business school should teach that?

I like Elizabeth Warren's plan: 2% on assets of over $50M, then another 1% on assets over $1B. And remember: at that level of wealth, such a tax would still allow the very, very rich to remain very, very rich.

We're not talking about "punishing" people - we're talking about TAXING them. A democracy can't sustain this much massive wealth in the hands of so few. It drowns out the voices & limits the opportunities of a vast majority of people. It's aberrational in our history & it's WRONG

This week alone Elon Musk's fortune grew by $36 billion, yet he goes out full blast to criticize a proposed wealth tax on billionaires. Kinda makes you want to tax him a whole lot more, doesn't it?

This is such egregious injustice. Contact Reps & Sens 202 224-3121; AG Garland 202 353 1555. Best thing now is to make a lot of noise. Tell them you don’t want a corporate prosecution! And New Yorkers please go visit him (we’ll know where tomorrow). @SDonziger we’re all with you.
BREAKING: After 100 pages of legal briefing, the appellate court today denied my release in 10 words. This is not due process of law. Nor is it justice.
I must report to prison by tomorrow afternoon. We will get through this.💪❤️
