They stood by his failed COVID response. His lies. His impeachment. His corrupt pardons. His efforts to overturn the election.

The Trickle-Up Economy Is Going Swimmingly.

The bifurcated economy that took shape in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic destroyed the lives, savings and small businesses of innumerable Americans, but the year wasn’t a financial washout for everyone.

Between roughly mid-March and Dec. 22, the United States gained 56 new billionaires, according to the Institute for Policy Studies, bringing the total to 659. The wealth held by that small cadre of Americans has jumped by more than $1 trillion in the months since the pandemic began.

All these headlines about how Trump broke Obama's 12-year run as most admired man.

Judge Reinstates 4,000 Georgia Voters

A federal judge in Georgia on Monday ordered two counties to reverse a decision removing more than 4,000 voters from the rolls ahead of the Jan. 5 runoff elections that will decide control of the U.S. Senate.
