Starbucks could give every one of its 383,000 workers a $5,000 bonus & still keep $2.6 billion in profits from last year. Instead they're raising prices while spending $20 billion on stock buybacks & dividends when profits are up 31%. Don't blame inflation. Blame corporate greed.

JUST IN: Marjorie Taylor Greene apologizes for speaking at Marjorie Taylor Greene fundraiser, says she “didn’t know what her views are”

This is oligarchy. This is greed. This is callousness. Last year, over 2 million people worldwide died of hunger. At the same time, the world’s 2,755 billionaires saw their wealth go up by $5 trillion – from $8.6 trillion to $13.8 trillion. This is why we need a tax on wealth.

Schools scared to death. The truth is, one education under desks, Stooped low from bullets; That plunge when we ask Where our children Shall live & how & if

Enough is enough. We must abolish the filibuster and pass gun safety legislation NOW. No one in America needs an AR-15. How many more children, mothers and fathers need to be murdered in cold blood before the Senate has the guts to ban assault weapons and take on the NRA?
