RT [@RBReich](https://twitter.com/RBReich/status/1450145044548050945) Kyrsten Sinema started her political career with the Green Party.

Then she took over $900,000 from industry groups trying to kill Biden’s Build Back Better plan.

Now she wants to cut $100 billion in climate funds included in the package.

This is the power of big money, folks.

This is what a powerful labor movement looks like, folks.

RT [@RBReich](https://twitter.com/RBReich/status/1445166814464339968) Do you know how much CEO pay has skyrocketed since 1978?

100%?
500%?

Try 1,322%

Meanwhile, the $7.25/hour starvation wage hasn’t budged in over a decade.

When I say we have a rigged for the rich system, this is what I mean.

RT [@lindyli](https://twitter.com/lindyli/status/1443398956206247943) When asked by @AriNatter about the coal company:
1) Manchin founded
2) his son still owns
3) from which he still earns $500K in dividends EACH year
4) his wife got $600K

Manchin said “You got a problem? You’d do best to change the subject”

We ain’t changing the damn subject.

RT [@RepAdamSchiff](https://twitter.com/RepAdamSchiff/status/1443027945963114509) Let’s not overcomplicate this:

Republicans passed a $2 trillion tax cut for billionaires and corporations.

And now they’re refusing to pay for it.

It’s really that simple.
