US labor unions gear up to fight against Trump’s ‘Billionaire First’ agenda

Trump is "rewarding the big corporations and the rich" while many Americans are "actually struggling", she added. "I think that's going to come into sharper focus as we go on into 2026.

Sanders Shreds Big Tech's $76 Billion 'Corporate Welfare' Payday in CHIPS Act

"Not only would this bill be providing corporate welfare to profitable American corporations, but we would literally be handing over U.S. taxpayer dollars to corporations that are owned or controlled by other countries," he continued.

"Bottom line: Let us rebuild the U.S. microchip industry," he argued, "but let's do it in a way that benefits all of our society, not just a handful of wealthy, profitable, and powerful corporations."

...All too many Americans work full-time, but are paid so little that they still need to rely on such government benefits as food stamps and Medicaid to get by. In his view, that amounts to corporate welfare.

Rolling Back Conservation Efforts Across The Country (Tom Ashbrook, On Point)

And we'll look at the president's sudden ban on transgender military service. -- Tom Ashbrook
