Time to win back our democracies before it’s too late
If there is one thing we want the world leaders at Davos this week to know, it’s this: it’s time to win back our democracies and shared futures by taxing the super rich before it’s too late.
Four years ago, we decided to cut America’s Gordian Knot by starting our Great Economy Project in Whiteville, North Carolina. This led to the creation of the Columbus County Deciders. Now, after years of on-the-ground work, we’re seeing our efforts pay off.
A Closer Look: What we’ve learned in the five years since January 6th
Yesterday marked the five-year anniversary of one of the most shameful days in American history: the January 6, 2021 attack on the US Capitol. Time has not diluted our conviction that what we witnessed five years ago was an unprecedented attack on American democracy fueled by Donald Trump’s lies.
For our last Closer Look of 2025, we wanted to reflect on the year we’ve had by sharing our top five most read Closer Looks of the year, along with a few of our personal favorites. We’ll also share some notable hits we had in our traditional earned media and social media campaigns.

When we think about the holidays and the season of giving, we can’t help but feel some nostalgia for Toys “R” Us, the toy superstore which closed its doors in 2018.

President Trump can’t seem to make up his mind as to whether America is suffering an affordability crisis.
