When a President wearing a tan suit was newsworthy. Ah the good old days

Microsoft: $101 BILLION in profits. $12.5 BILLION in tax breaks. $176 BILLION in stock buybacks. 4,800 workers fired this week. 9,000 workers fired last year. Please don't tell me trickle-down economics works. It never did. Nothing trickles down.

See “No Accident” a documentary on the civil lawsuit brought against the white supremacists who attacked counter protesters in Charlottesville in 2017. Here is where you can find it in case you haven’t already seen these men testify and try to justify their acts of violence.
