Stephen Miller tried to claim only real "Americans" built the Empire State Building, but he left out the true stories of the Indigenous ironworkers who actually did. The Mohawk Skywalkers, many of whom traveled from Canada to build our cities, helped shape America's skylines—and shatter the lie behind Miller’s whitewashed nostalgia. https://thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p/mohawk-skywalkers-indigenous-us-history

The Kanien'kéhá:ka Haudenosaunee ironworkers were vital to building Miller's favorite monuments to modern America

The Big Picture

GE boasted $7B in profit in 2023. So it must have paid a lot in federal income taxes, right?

If you guessed $1, you’d still be high.

In fact, GE got a *refund* of $423 million.

This is why we need the Biden-Harris administration's proposed 15% minimum tax on corporate profits.

Has anybody EVER seen a photo of Elon Musk where he DIDN'T look like a James Bond villain?

20 Years Ago on July 6th, 2002 - the brilliant economist and thinker John Kenneth Galbraith, gave an interview in which he said this perfect bit:

“The modern conservative is engaged in one of man’s oldest exercises in moral philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.”

I can't believe I even have to say this, but it is not normal that the Supreme Court is taking its sweet time to decide if a former president is immune from prosecution for inciting an insurrection to overturn an election. This should have been decided already. The answer is no!

Corporate profits drove more than half of recent US inflation.

What's the GOP’s response?

They don't just want to extend Trump's tax cuts for the rich, they want lower corporate taxes too.

They're fine with corporations siphoning money from you and keeping more of the spoils.
