Greg Bovino: "An individual approached U.S. Border Patrol agents with a 9mm semi-automatic handgun. The agents attempted to disarm the individual, but he violently resisted. Fearing for his life and the lives and safety of fellow officers, a Border Patrol agent fired defensive shots…This looks like a situation where an individual wanted to do maximum damage and massacre law enforcement."

Trump and Republicans got rid of the CFPB’s rule to cap overdraft fees at $5.
Now, big banks are taking even more money from struggling Americans to pad their own bottom lines.
Trump isn’t looking out for you – he’s looking out for Wall Street.

"Ian" is pruning grapevines in Fresno CA. "I earn $45/row. It takes me 4 hrs to prune it. It's hard on my body. My neck hurts from looking up, my arms hurt from the heavy shears & my legs ache from trudging through the mud. We can't meet expenses at this time of year." #WeFeedYou

Is there a reason bank statements can’t just be monthly? Like day 1 of month to day 30 or whatever. This feels like just another way the financial industry is fucking us over.

The Flex Loan, a new type of payday loan pioneered by Advance Financial in Tennessee, allows residents to borrow up to $4,000 at a 279.5% interest rate.
It has burdened low-income borrowers while generating huge profits for lenders.

Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.
McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.
Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay.
See the problem?
Everyone repeat after me: no one’s vote should have more power than anyone else’s. No matter where you live or how much fucking money you have. It’s not that hard.
