Remember when riding around on a wealthy donor’s yacht, bragging about giving him & his rich buddies tax breaks on their million $ boats would’ve been a career killer? What happened to those days? Why don’t we care anymore? Make Ethics Great Again #MEGA lailluminator.com/2025/07/10/wit…

Like almost everything else private equity touches, this will not end well for anyone except the PE execs who will pay themselves enormous fees.

🇲🇽📉 Under the 4th Transformation, Mexico’s richest 1% saw their share of national income DROP from 29.6% in 2018 to 21.6% in 2023. For context: from 2002 to 2018, it had jumped from 11.7% to 29.6%. For the good of all, the poor first.

Isn’t it odd for the Speaker of the House of Representatives, a conservative Christian, to keep using the word “steroids”? Steroid use increases anger/rage & decreases fertility. ALSO, tax cuts for the wealthy have never paid for themselves through increased economic growth.

The independent market monitor for the largest regional power grid in America finds that AI data centers are causing big power price increases: "Customers are already bearing billions of dollars in higher costs as a direct result of existing and forecast data center load."

Just what we needed, another giant scam where, when it falls apart, wealthy and powerful people will get bailed out and everyone else will pay for it.

This is the sad reality for so many pension funds. Their managers get hoodwinked by “activist” investors who actually provide subpar returns for exorbitant fees. Private equity firms are usually the worst offenders.

Our new 2025 Executive Paywatch report shows the growing CEO-to-worker pay gap, where top CEOs now make 285x what workers make. Corporations are prioritizing CEO pay while workers are being left behind. America’s unions won’t stand for it.
