She co-signed a $60,000 student loan for her EX.

[Akunna Cook @AkunnaCook]

Brilliant decision

[Matthew A. Cherry @MatthewACherry]

Kamala really made the perfect VP pick.

[Akunna Cook @AkunnaCook]

Hard to not be grinning ear to ear watching Democrats in full ARRAY. This party has a monopoly on the best political talent, best policy ideas, and it’s hard to fathom how half the country could disagree with this vision of the future. #Vote

[Maryland Democratic Party @mddems]

Maryland casts all of our votes for Kamala Harris!! #fyp #rollcall #kamalaharris #wesmoore

"Gen Z and millennial Africans are better educated than the generations before them... Unemployment was ranked as the most important problem by 18- to 35-year-olds surveyed by the pan-African survey organisation Afrobarometer," says The Guardian's @rachelmsavage in her latest article on young Africans' economic struggles.

Exciting day to be a Democrat. If you went into a coma 3 weeks ago and woke up today, I don’t think you’d believe the plot twists and turns but here we are. #HarrisWalz2024

As a Howard grad, I knew about our alum #KamalaHarris. I remember at one alumni club meeting talking about how her star was on the rise.

I also used to watch State of the Black Union every year on C-SPAN, and I became a fan forever when I saw this in 2006:

I'd just like to point out that, for 250 years, American presidents didn't need to ask for immunity.

[Ida Bae Wells @nhannahjones]

We are in dangerous, dangerous times. A faltering democracy in decline.

[Akunna Cook @AkunnaCook]

It’s wild that we are in a place where this won’t get more attention because everything else is so 🦇💩

[Bloomberg Law @BLaw]

A divided Supreme Court threw out a decades-old legal doctrine that empowered federal regulators to interpret unclear laws, issuing a blockbuster ruling that will constrain environmental, consumer and financial-watchdog agencies. https://t.co/sOjseFjt0t

The Chevron ruling today feels more "late stage empire" than anything else. Congress is increasingly broken, now the administrative state is radically withered down. I am generally optimistic but the ability for the state to govern is unwinding before our eyes.
