The US currently has 2% inflation, 4% unemployment, and has seen years of sustained real income growth. Americans are consuming more than ever before in history, eating out more, and taking more vacations.

Our information environment is completely broken.

[AshleyStevens @The_Acumen]

The trend of politicians reporting things to us like they’re journalists and not politicians with power to do anything about it needs to end. I mean Joe Biden is president right now, go talk to your boss and ask him what he plans on doing about it. You’re a senator, do something!

This is how Putin kills millions of Americans without lifting a finger

The Department of Education has the smallest staff of any cabinet agency.

91% of its budget goes to Pell Grants, Student Loans, underresourced elementary and secondary schools, and special education.

I'm sure the states will manage that well.

Bringing back prayer in schools but ending free lunch for hungry children.

American Evangelicals are so fake and craven

@MiaYim You rockin NoBulls?!

[David Shuster @DavidShuster]

Trump has now reaffirmed his plan to eliminate the U.S. Department of Education. For the record that department funds, among other things, all the special education and special needs program in public schools and public colleges in all 50 states.

Read it slowly. Carefully.

They're not even hiding it anymore.

Why was Starlink allowed to count our votes when it's owner Elon Musk paid people a million dollars to vote for Donald Trump?

I can't figure out if vaccines work or not.

Tough one. I can see why RFK Jr is so concerned.

Need Sherlock Holmes on this one.

[Nico The Lowly Tarnished @Nicosaesthetic]

Destroying separation of church & state, removing “HISTORY” from the curriculum, eliminating free school lunches, & no longer providing funding to public schools so private schools become the only valid source of education for the privileged.

The youth is cooked.

For anyone on BlueSky - add me. I’ll be slowly phasing out of Twitter. 🤘🏻

@abby_mueller_ I’ve been debating giving it a go. Might mess around with that tonight.

[Marlene Robertson🇨🇦 @marlene4719]

So the scumbag who pleaded the 5th 75 times, who was responsible for the largest Medicare fraud in American history will be made Senate Majority Leader and will oversee cutting Medicare and Medicaid.

This is going to be unwatchable.

[Bakari Sellers @Bakari_Sellers]

Trump just said he’s going to eliminate the Department of Education. He didn’t give you a how or what happens with the necessary funding for your children that come department. He just gonna put locks on the doors.

Y’all voted for these next 4 years.

[Lycurgus Hatfield @Lycrgs]

Fuck him. Fuck MAGA. Fuck this insane bullshit so many of y’all think is good.

Josh Hawley: “Some will say now that I am calling America a Christian Nation. So I am. And some will say that I am advocating Christian Nationalism. And so I do."

[Benny Boy @Camel_Crushin]

Just cut off a student driver. Welcome to the real world, bitch!

[Lycurgus Hatfield @Lycrgs]

This is the shit that y’all should be worried about but are too blinded by your own selfishness to realize what this will lead to. Religious discrimination to start.

[James Surowiecki @JamesSurowiecki]

The president-elect saying he's going to "bring prayer back to our schools" is about as blatant a violation of the 1st Amendment as you can imagine.
