Serious question: How can you watch America’s billionaires get 44% richer during the pandemic and not support a wealth tax?

Today’s Tax Day. If you’ve paid your taxes, you’re paying more federal income taxes than Nike, FedEx, and dozens of other major corporations did last year.
It’s time to tax the rich. It’s time to tax corporations. It’s time to put an end to our rigged system.

Let’s set the record straight. There is no labor shortage. There is a living wage shortage.

55 massive corporations — like Nike and FedEx — paid $0 in federal income taxes in 2020.
RT if you agree: corporations need to finally pay their fair share.

UPDATE: Her four day trip to Mexico for her "work-related bonding retreat" was granted.
My teenage client remained rear-cuffed at his dad's funeral.
I know I sound like a broken record, but I'm not going to stop:
Two. Systems. Of. Justice.

More than half of Americans support forgiving all student debt — and nearly 2/3 support some amount of forgiveness.
It’s time to cancel student debt.

Imagine thinking that ‘healthcare is a human right’ vs white supremacist conspiracy theories are two views “just as extreme” as the other 🤡🤡🤡

One of the main reasons people stay with an abusive partner is that they don’t have the money to support themselves or their children. The #WorkingFamiliesTaxCredit #RecoveryRebate provides direct cash assistance to the households that need it most. Tell #WaLeg to pass HB 1297!

Rep. Ocasio-Cortez on Congress members who may be sympathetic towards the rioter carrying Confederate flag: "The Confederacy were a band of enemies and traitors to the U.S. ... if they find more sympathy with them, then perhaps they shouldn't be serving in the U.S. Congress."

You see the soldiers in this picture? They are National Guardsmen from Puerto Rico, citizens, coming to Washington, DC to defend a Commander in Chief they could not vote for, a democratic federal republic in which they are denied representation in Congress or a presidential vote. – at Washington, DC

Governors were told repeatedly by @HHSgov there was a strategic reserve of vaccines, and this week, the American people were told it’d be released to increase supply of vaccine.
It appears now that no reserve exists. The Trump admin. must answer immediately for this deception.

It’s truly stunning how a president who was impeached twice and lost popular vote twice appointed a third of Supreme Court & a fourth of federal judiciary

Integrity.
That time in July 2017 when @ReverendWarnock was arrested by Capitol Police for peacefully protesting efforts to repeal the Affordable Care Act. He said his arrest “was a small price to pay” when considering the plight of others who are suffering.

I believe every person in America is entitled to the same health care as the President of the United States—with no co-pays, no deductibles and no out-of-pocket expenses. If government-funded health care is good enough for Trump, it is good enough for all of us as a human right.
