I love this song. Believe it or not; I never knew of it when he was alive. I first heard it on an episode of Democracy Now right after tr@mp was elected. Sad days probably made it sound even better.

Reminder that J.D. Vance is another phony GOP "populist." He worked in private equity and benefited from tax loopholes designed for the wealthy elite. He won his Senate seat thanks largely to his billionaire benefactor Peter Thiel, who spent $15 million on his campaign. Hello?

Trump’s tax law cut the corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%. What did corporations do with the money saved? They didn’t invest it or raise wages. They spent a record $1 trillion on stock buybacks the year after the law went into effect. Nothing trickled down to workers.

At least 63 billionaires have now publicly endorsed Trump, hosted a fundraiser for him, or contributed to Trump aligned PACs. Why are they rallying behind him? Tax cuts, mostly. But there's more. The more Trump tears down democracy, the safer the oligarchy becomes. Be warned.

Trump's now pretending to take the side of tipped workers, but his Labor Department changed a rule to make it easier for bosses to pocket workers' tips. This cost tipped workers an estimated $700 million a year in wages.

It’s his fault. Almost all of it. The Supreme Court. The refined racism. The support of Trump in exchange for more power. His legacy is now the equivalent of the repulsive warm slosh at the bottom of your garbage can that’s baked for 3 days after an August rain. @LeaderMcConnell

Very nice. Looks like it has some Gothic elements, from what I can see.
