Bill Pulte has weaponized his office to attack Trump’s political enemies, including economist Lisa Cook. However, critics argue that Pulte's abuse of office is "a far, far greater offense than any personal mortgage occupancy fraud by a federal official."

I love ya, but you’re going to have to tackle wealth inequality head on. Tax wealth, not work. It doesn’t have to be about socialism vs capitalism. I know they want to make it that, but taxes are just a form of societal self control, because compound interest will let the dumbest people rise.

I always liked this photo because Japan is full of tension between old and new. Deeply sexist and racist in some parts (Steve Bannon studied Abe for some ideas) but also capable of building on lasting progressive egalitarian principles. I love Japan, even though they piss me off sometimes.
