We need a president who works for all Americans, and a tax system that does too. Release your tax returns and commit to a fair tax system for the American people, a statement from the events website reads.

It continues: President Trump needs to be straight with the American people. To whom does he owe favors? Who are his policies really intended to benefit? Who will he put first? Working families are struggling to make ends meet, but we pay our fair share in taxes does Donald Trump pay any at all?

Over 60 left-wing groups, includingMoveOn.org, Communications Workers of America, American Federation of Teachers, Americans for Tax Fairness, Indivisible, the Sunlight Foundation, and the Bernie Sanders spin-off group Our Revolution, will participate in the march.

In Washington D.C, participants will begin their rally by the Capitol and move towardsTrump International Hotel and the IRS building.

International marchesare also planned, with scheduled events in the United Kingdom, Japan, Germany and New Zealand.

According to Axios, the timing of the marchdeliberately coincides with the eight year anniversary of the mass Tea Party rallies, which took place 15th April 2009 to oppose Barack Obamas$787 billion stimulus package and $3.5 trillion budget.

Last month, progressive MSNBC talk show host Rachel Maddowunveiled a copy of Donald Trumps tax returns from 2005, which revealedthat Trump had paid $38 million in income taxes on $150 million that year.

As part of his plan to reinvigorate small business and stagnant economic growth, Trumphas pledged to cut taxes and regulation massively, although Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has warned that tax reform is unlikely to be completed before August.

Tea Party of the Left: Democrats Plan Nationwide 'Tax Marches' to Demand Trump Tax Returns - Breitbart News

In November 2014, current Mayoral candidate Manuel Medina was making headlines in SA media. Not because he was running for office at the time, but for an ad he took personal responsibility for creating and airing on Spanish-language television.

Mr. Medina was Chairman of the Bexar County Democrat Party, and he was looking for ways to help Democrat candidates locked in south Texas races.

As Express News writer Gilbert Garcia points out in this piece on Sunday November 2, 2014,

The Univision ad begins by showing the United States and Mexican flags waving next to each other, with a narrator saying, These two flags represent friendship, liberty, opportunity and justice.

That image is quickly replaced by the tea partys Dont Tread on Me banner.

This flag, the narrator warns us, is muy peligrosa (very dangerous).

Its the flag of the tea party Republicans. They are radical terrorists and they want to take matters into their own hands, affecting our children and families with violence and firearms on the border and in our cities.

Garcia continues,

Medina defended the ad which he created himself by saying, The tea party is not a political party. Theyre a terrorist organization.

On November 2, 2014 KSAT television quoted Medina as saying, They deserve to be called terrorists. Theyre acting like them, theyre dressing like them.

The final Mayoral debate will air at noon today on KTSA. Do you think this issue should come up?

Axios caught up with Lampkin for some frank talk on her findings and the state of diversity in Silicon Valley.

There's this perception that all tech companies are equally bad at actual results on diversity but your scores show a wide range. Is it a misperception?

Yes, definite misperception. Unfortunately, I think the media has played a role in creating this reality because once we pull back the layers, with companies like Slack for example, we're surprised to find how homogenous their leadership team still remains. What I'm hoping to do is show the real differentiation because many companies are just hiring a chief diversity officer, giving money to non-profits, but still aren't putting underrepresented people in positions of real power/influence.

Who is doing more than talking about diversity?

I'd say that top 35 companies on the BlendScore list are doing a pretty good job, but there is definitely still room for improvement. I've created the algorithm such that attaining a score of 100 doesn't take extreme measures (much like the Human Rights Campaign's Corporate Equality Index). Most of these companies have zero underrepresented minorities on their board or executive teams.diversity for them is often White, occasionally Asian, cis-gender straight women which is why I put photos up there too.

What is actually working?

CXO's and Board Members that genuinely give a f**k! Hiring and rewarding talented people equally is more important than driverless cars, AI, and virtual reality and it has to be regarded as suchwhy? Because there are talented people who can solve these problems that aren't even able to get in the game or get there and aren't treated well. Investment in education/STEM pipeline and human resource management that is comparable to R&D will work.

The left's next Tea Party - Axios

Snow White's wishing well, dwarves, single slippers and a carriage fit for a princess (or 60) decorated the lawn Sunday of the Oliver House Museum in Jackson for the second annual Dolly and Me Princess Tea Party.

The event was hosted by the Jackson Heritage Association and attended by at least 65 people.

"We expect at least some walk-ins," said Jackson Heritage Association president Barbie Stroder.

Stroder said she and board member Julie Kuehle came up with the idea for the event last year to expand on their success with the annual Halloween party at the Oliver House.

"We wanted a spring event and came up with this," Stroder said.

Attendees got to bring their dolls and dress up princess-style for an afternoon, Stroder said.

Stroder, dressed in a swirling purple cape and carrying a jeweled scepter, said the Oliver House gardens were perfect for the girls to get their pictures taken, especially since some flowers were blooming and the sun was out amid gusty winds.

Sunday's wind prompted a move inside for the tea party itself, Stroder said, but the other events, including a princess dance party and scavenger hunt, remained outdoors.

Halle Hoover, 5, said she came last year, but she didn't bring her doll this time.

Hoover said her favorite part last year was Belle, or meeting the princesses. She said she was excited about this year, too.

Each girl attending could fill out a "princess card," with her name and her doll's name, her interests and favorite princess. The grand outdoor staircase at the Oliver House served as the walkway for each "princess" to make her grand entry as the announcer read each card aloud.

"We're excited about our events coming up this year," Kuehle said, and added she was glad to see so many people at the tea party.

Attendees also could make crafts upstairs, Kuehle said, including making paper flowers or decorating a tote bag.

Sarah Higgins, 8, said she decided she and her doll should have matching hairstyles -- twin braids down each side of their faces. Higgins also wore a purple tiara and white dress.

Higgins said she was looking forward to the games, and also the food.

Jaden Davis and Ariel Barr, both 9, said they were excited about the afternoon. Davis said her American Girl doll, whom she named Lilly, borrowed her pink flower barrette for the party.

Barr's doll, Alex, wore a tiny tiara in her blonde hair.

Each table was set with glass plates and cups for the girls and tiny plastic teacups for the dolls, Stroder said.

Barr said she was excited about the food. Cupcakes and cookies in the middle of the tables disappeared quickly.

Davis said she most was looking forward to the princess dance party.

"I like to twirl," she said, adding she checks every dress or skirt she tries on in the store to ensure it twirls right.

Davis and Barr said they know each other from dance classes, church, Girl Scouts -- "everywhere," Davis said.

"Almost," Barr said.

"I've always been into princesses," Davis said, and she hopes she always will be.

Proceeds from the event went toward the Oliver House Museum.
