We made a list (and checked it twice)

Everyone on this list put their own greed for money or power over the wellbeing of our communities. John, The holiday season is a time for reflection, a time to ask ourselves who among us has been nice this year — and who is getting coal? The Working Families Party …

Musk wants to cut Social Security

John — One of Trump’s very first actions after the election was to hand-pick two unelected billionaires — Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy — to drastically cut federal government spending, and give them more opportunities to enrich themselves. They have already proposed cutting…
