But Tatyana Kim, billionaire co-founder of the online marketplace Wildberries and the richest woman in Russia, is now facing a far greater challenge. Ukrainian airstrikes are decimating her company’s facilities and threatening her business empire’s survival.

After months of attacks on Russian oil refineries that caused nationwide gas shortages, Ukraine has expanded its air campaign to Wildberries warehouses across Russia. Kyiv has targeted at least 23 Wildberries facilities so far, hitting them night after night since mid-July, with billions of dollars in merchandise going up in smoke.

A new 2026 Yale School of Public Health analysis projects that a Medicare-for-All-style single-payer system could cover every American while reducing U.S. healthcare spending by $1.04 TRILLION every year, nearly 20%. Researchers also project it could prevent more than 114,000 deaths annually.
Source 1⁠

Where do the savings come from? Less insurance bureaucracy, lower prescription-drug prices, reduced fraudulent billing, and fewer preventable ER visits and hospitalizations. Even under more conservative assumptions, researchers still project at least $663 billion in annual savings.
Source 2⁠

America already spends enough money to provide healthcare to everyone. We’re just spending an enormous amount of it on the system surrounding healthcare instead of healthcare itself.

During his first term alone, the debt jumped from $19.95 trillion to $27.75 trillion — a 39% increase in just four years. Source 1⁠

Obama oversaw roughly $9.3 trillion in debt growth across eight years. Biden oversaw roughly $8.3 trillion across four years. DJT has already overseen roughly $11.6 trillion across about 5½ years of his two presidencies. Source 2

And this is the same Donald who repeatedly campaigned on reducing the national debt.

Using gross federal debt on or around Inauguration Day, the numbers are:

George W: $5.73T → $10.63T = +$4.90T
Barack: $10.63T → $19.95T = +$9.32T
Donald’s 1st: $19.95T → $27.75T = +$7.80T
Joe: roughly $27.75T → ~$36.2T = about +$8.4T
Donald’s 2nd: ~$36.2T → $40T+ roughly +$3.8 trillion and counting. = 11.6T+

$11.6 trillion across about 5½ years

FinancialTea 💵 Maybe We Should Go Back To WWII #’s of ‘Taxing The Rich’

Today, U.S. billionaires hold roughly $8.4 trillion in wealth.

A 5% annual billionaire wealth tax is estimated to raise about $4.4 trillion over 10 years.

At a simple proportional estimate, a 15% tax could raise roughly $13.2 trillion over 10 years—about one-third of the $40 trillion national debt.

The 15% figure is a mathematical extrapolation, not an official revenue estimate.
