Republicans just voted to keep screwing over working Americans — all to protect big bank profits.
The Biden-era CFPB passed a rule capping predatory overdraft fees at $5. That saved regular people $5 billion a year.
You know who hated that? Wall Street.
So guess what the GOP made a priority? Killing that rule.
Every single Democrat voted to protect consumers.
Every single Republican voted to let banks keep robbing people who are struggling the most.
They chose billionaires over the 99% — again.

Texas Charter School Superintendent Makes $870,000. He Leads a District With 1,000 Students.
On paper, Salvador Cavazos earns less than $300,000 to run Valere Public Schools, a small Texas charter network. But taxpayers likely aren’t aware that in reality, his total pay makes him one of the country’s highest-earning superintendents

my fellow Americans,
If you’re seeing this, please take a moment to write to your representatives and tell them to demand that Trump serves our nation, not foreign interests.
Write to all of them, including MAGA senators. Not because we expect to change their minds, but because they need to know they’re going against the will of the American people.
The U.S. must resume military aid to Ukraine. Cutting it off only helps Putin and weakens our own security.
If you don’t feel like writing your own message, just keep it simple - tell them our leaders should stand for America, not dictators. It takes less than a minute, but it matters
Let’s make some noise

“A redraw of Ohio’s US Congressional district map will happen this year under the same politician-controlled process as before…but with plenty of insight from the past, voting rights advocates say.
“The congressional map #ohio has been using for the last 4yrs are up for a redraw due to a lack of bipartisan support when the map was passed by the legislature in 2022….If the map gets bipartisan support, they last for 10yrs.”

"Mass deportation above all other values? Incoming “Border Czar” Homan had a video call Sun with Guatemala’s AG, who's her US visa revoked for “significant corruption” & has persecuted anti-corruption judges, prosecutors, & journalists."

Trump will put Orban to shame, enriching himself, family, donors, Rs, enablers…
He’s already taken in >$200M, & will steal the US Treasury, take bribes & cuts from privatization, contracts…
Let's be crystal clear:
Musk and Trump used the dumbass MAGA base to get votes.
Now, Musk's new "bulldog" role is to turn against them and create a schism within the party, so that the admin can justify taking away Social Security, Medicare, Disability, and other benefits from all Americans.
This is the GOP version of tri-D chess, and it's not hard to see through it.

Tom Barrack has been picked to be Trump’s ambassador to Turkey. He's appointed Mike Flynn’s partner in attempting to transfer nukes to the Saudis.
Barrack's acquittal was a defeat for the DOJ, which in recent years has launched a crackdown on individuals for undisclosed contacts with foreign govts bc of potential national security risks. Barrack was acquitted of acting as an unregistered foreign agent in the US.

How soon will NYC Mayor Eric Adams change his party affiliation to Republican? He belongs in the GOP, corrupt to the core. Adams also advocates for crypto, that's not a coincidence.
Mayor Adams defended Trump Sat, slamming claims from Democrats that the Republican nominee is a “fascist” who could be compared to Adolf Hitler.
“I've had those comments hurled at me by some political leaders in the city; my answer is ‘No,’ ” -Adams.

#GovenorHogan has been touted as a reasonable Republican. Here's proof that there's no such thing. They're all self serving pricks.
I haven't shopped at Home Depot for years, & now there's another reason to avoid the store:
Home Depot will pay nearly $2M to settle a civil enforcement claim from CA DA's that the home improvement co was engaging in false advertising & unfair competition *charged more money than was written on the shelf tag or on the item itself.

Dem trifecta: could bolster -anti-corruption initiatives.
In some countries, incl. US, the same FIN instruments that allow people to hide wealth from tax authorities also allow them to donate anonymously to pol campaigns...
We could require all RE transactions, everywhere in: US & Europe, to be totally transparent. “Secrecy & democracy are antithetical," not knowing "disabled perhaps the most fundamental foundation of democracy.”
