Hospital CEOs Pay Is Too Damn High, MedPage Today President Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act — otherwise known as the “Big Beautiful Bill” — is projected to magnify economic inequality in the U.S. By 2034, the top tenth of U.S. households will see an estimated $13,600 increase in “household resources” (annual income), while the bottom tenth […]
I did not want to scare you so I downsized it. I believe this is actually supposed to the new penny to replace the old Lincoln pennies. However, it is labeled as a $1 dollar coin. Given the nature of the person, we can be sure the coin will be accepted for the value stated. […]
I understand why this gets ignored by the MSM. Republican racism isn’t news. “The president of Boston University College Republicans wrote on X he called the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement requesting it detain employees at Allston Car Wash, the site of a Nov. 4 raid where nine employees were arrested.” *snip* “The nine detained […]

– by New Deal democrat From Avika M. Cohen, “Litigation Disaster tour guide”: ——- Ppl need to understand what’s happening here. The GOP response to the shutdown was: You’re gonna cave, or we’re going to hurt vulnerable people by shutting off SNAP. The Dems, unwilling to let that happen, caved.

The Republican Party and the American right-wing (but I repeat myself) has been predicting for over 100 years the doom of the US if liberals or moderates are elected.
