ProPublica identified 17 people who each shielded at least $1 billion in capital gains from the so-called Net Investment Income Tax. Together, this small group, by collectively exempting more than $35 billion, saved about $1.3 billion in taxes. (Published Dec. 2024)

RFK jr is the ugly face of American genocide but he is doing the bidding of Trump who killed many in the pandemic. He is just one of the misfits in this administration’s cabinet. Grifters, liars, FOX political performers. 🤨 It’s time the pendulum swings back to expertise, safety, and truth.

This is a 'holy sh*t' story on two levels. Level 1: A Deputy Chief at the DoJ says that they'd redact every Republican from the Epstein list, but leave every Democrat. Level 2: The recording was a trap set by the right-wing O'Keefe Media Group (as in James O'Keefe!). www.axios.com/2025/09/04/e...

Consumers beware: “Trump wants them to pay higher electricity bills to protect the fossil fuel industry that poisons our air.” Yes, and — no coincidence — the industry funds him and fossil-fuel-funded Republican cronies.

Never mind the massive existing subsidy to fossil fuel of being allowed to pollute for free (per IMF: $700+ BILLION a year!). Fossil fuel lives on the government dole, and funds Republicans to protect its special-interest privileged polluting status.
Senator Sheldon Whitehouse (@whitehouse.senate.gov) reposted reply parent
The higher-priced units are virtually all fossil fuel units, shifting money from consumers’ pockets to Trump’s big crooked fossil fuel donors (also massive donors to Republican Party generally). So it’s political payback, at your expense.
Senator Sheldon Whitehouse (@whitehouse.senate.gov) reposted
Let’s be clear. This will raise costs. 95% of new power on the grid last year was clean energy. It essentially all came in below the grid price. Suppress it, and the grid must bring on even higher-priced units, raising costs for consumers. Trump-flation in action.

The Trump family levels of corruption are breathtaking. It’s easy to overlook because there’s so much always happening, but we’ve never seen anything like this degree of self-enrichment within government before. Some? Yes. But not this blatant and not to this degree.
