The way Republicans look today, it isn’t what they say & do today that keeps us up at night. It’s what might happen in November.

"I think Putin has wanted Ukraine for a long time. He was waiting for an opportunity where he thought America was in retreat, pulling back from the rest of the world," says Sen. Mitch McConnell. https://t.co/k4U2vtHMJ3

@TransitionShow Sharing... though we wouldn't be surprised if you've already seen it. (Also... it wasn't a surprise to us that it's happening so it's probably not a surprise to you, either.)

The media hasn’t reported it, but @robshapiro is right: Per capita income in America, after inflation, rose 3.6% over the last 9 months. Under Trump pre-Covid it was 2.5%. We haven’t seen real income growth like this since the Clinton years. /1 https://t.co/b2JE6uMcve @monthly

An individual's behavior and interests can tell you A LOT about what an individual values and cares about. For example:

Rep. McCarthy:
* BS in MARKETING & an MBA

Biden:
* BA & DOUBLE MAJOR in POLITICAL SCIENCE and HISTORY
* JD, passing the bar and serving as a PUBLIC DEFENDER

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

PRESIDENT BIDEN JUST OUTSMARTED KEVIN MCCARTHY.

President Biden has met with McCarthy but has stayed firm on the debt limit, using the bully pulpit and remaining tough on GOP efforts to holding the economy hostage. President Biden has made it clear that any meeting will need to be on the President’s terms.

There is a very historic reason President Biden is digging in his heels and refusing to budge:

Republicans don’t negotiate in good faith.

According to Salon’s Heather Digby Parton, President Biden has learned from mistakes made by the Obama Administration.

Then, “not ONE Republican came to the table to negotiate on the Affordable Care Act.”

It was a hard-earned lesson of the first Obama term: The modern Republican Party has zero integrity:

During negotiations, the far-right faction continually up the ante even when leadership has made a deal, notes Parton.

President Biden also knows Republicans are full of sh*t.

Under the Obama, Administration, including Biden, they learned that extremist GOP made a stink about the debt ceiling, but ultimately they capitulated and spared the country from financial crisis.

What Biden will do is take the debt ceiling off the table (That ain’t happening Jack).

He’ll instead listen to McCarthy and see if there is bipartisan ground on the budget instead.

We hear a lot about President Biden’s age. But there’s another word for that.

Experience.

I am glad President Biden has been in the game enough to know you don’t negotiate with Terrorists.

THANK YOU PRESIDENT BIDEN! 💙

@CalltoActivism Seriously? Haven't these ppl read the memo? In 2023, it's smarter to teach kids & pets "run, hide, fight"

@CalltoActivism It's no secret where conservative pols in America stand on guns (on the backs of victims & in the pockets of people who fall victim to their messaging).

However, u don't need to be a rhetorican to know conservative pols also stand w/oil, lead, plastic & not w/Earth. (See img)

Lately, I've been delving deeper into the concept of
Universal Basic Income.

I find it intriguing and although there are numerous obstacles to overcome, I wonder if it could be the way forward as we transition into an increasingly automated world?

Just as a reminder: Whatever their reasons for today's news, Fox was fine with airing all the Tucker comments in this segment. https://t.co/4xNpTN4UzV

@nathaliejacoby1 Not celebrating yet!

After all, it's not like he can't pop up again somewhere, saying something stupid to anyone willing to listen while still getting paid to do so.

No worries... we're still building our @besmarterthan brand as an inclusive endeavor. (i.e. Covid *AND* Tucker)

HBCUs have long been underfunded. Now, they're using a pot of federal COVID relief funds — $5.2 billion — to cancel student debt, upgrade campus infrastructure and retain students facing financial barriers.

Hmmm… Our “sources” over at Truthsocial are telling us it looks like something is happening which may impact sleep for some people (but not you or me).

Remember, before it was a social media app, “tic tok” was just the sound of time… (Tic Tok, Donald. Tik Toc.) 🤣
