Powerful video from Ady Barkan. Brave man and part of the resistance against this massive transfer of wealth by Donald Trump, Bob Corker and the rest of the Republican Party.
Make sure people see this. If you’re on Twitter, make #CorkerKickBack trend. They are playing defense. We are winning the messaging game. Even if this monstrosity passes, we have to define it as the biggest scam ever run on the American people.
There’s still time to crank up the pressure against this tax cut monstrosity.
The #CorkerKickback exemplifies everything that Americans hate about politicians. @SenBobCorker had leverage. He didn’t use to reduce deficit or save my Medicare benefits. He used it to line his own pocket with $$ millions. Shame on him. pic.twitter.com/lIKcdkBYBz

#CorkerKickback exemplifies what Americans find disgusting about politicians.
By retiring @SenBobCorker freed himself from need to cater to Trump.
He promised he wouldn’t vote for a deficit increase.
Then traded his leverage for cold hard $$$.
Corruption is shameful.

The men pushing this tax bill have been breaking promises from the start. My message to @SenatorCollins â the cost of misplacing your trust on this bill is too great. Please vote your values and stand up for us. pic.twitter.com/YOaI8LJDgg

My message to @Apple CEO @tim_cook on the #GOPTaxScam
You’re standing on the wrong side of history. While Americans fought for life saving coverage, your lobbyists fought against us. You can still change your course. pic.twitter.com/8SuHT49Arm— Ady Barkan (@AdyBarkan) December 18, 2017
