Breaking: Cory Booker has officially delivered the longest Senate speech in US history, surpassing Strom Thurmond’s filibuster against the Civil Rights Act.
A nation holds its breath,
Not in awe, but in dread—
The kind that comes when the ground beneath
Feels less like home
And more like a fault line.
What are we now,
If not a monument to contradiction?
The greatest experiment,
Now flirting with self-destruction.
We chose this—
Or maybe we didn’t,
Maybe the choosing was always an illusion,
A performance on a gilded stage.
The world watches,
Not with envy,
But with a grim curiosity,
Like spectators at a slow-motion crash,
The shattering glass reflecting what could have been.
Still, there is a question,
A whisper in the noise:
Can we find ourselves again?
Or is this who we’ve become?
Trump’s pick for Attorney General, Matt Gaetz, has been unable to practice law in Florida three times over the past five years due to failure to pay dues and failure to affirm compliance with trust account rules.
please keep the “we survived him once, we will do it again” tweets in the drafts or better yet delete them. millions of people did not in fact survive him, and millions more will not survive him again.
Jaw-dropping line at the polling site near Lehigh University where the line stretches around the block multiple times & is predominately young people & students. These young people are showing UP. Amazing.
@JoeBiden I was forced to move my loans to @MOHELAFAO but have gotten no information on my PSLF info I filed a year ago. They say to keep waiting. Meanwhile they are coming due again. They need to let us know how many months / payments were approved and where we stand.
GOP election pitch:
- yes we tried to overthrow US Gov’t, but we *failed*
- our last 3 POTUS brought recessions and higher deficits
- we want the planet to warm faster, more kids to die in schools, tens of millions to lose health insurance
- Slavery was good, child labor too 1/
Duvan Tomas Perez, killed working in a poultry plant.
Michael Schuls, killed working at a logging company.
Will Hampton, killed working at a landfill.
This is why child labor laws exist. Companies can't be allowed to turn to kids when adults refuse to work for poverty wages.
“They shouldn’t have taken on student loans!”
Do people realize that this sentence effectively means they believe people from working class backgrounds shouldn’t have attended college?
It’s classism.
@JoeBiden So what is that plan? Where is the application? You all@made me move my loans to Mohela who then denied my PSLF loan but won’t give any details why and what I need to do in order to be approved.
90% of Biden's student debt relief would go to Americans making less than $75,000 a year.
70% of the benefits of canceling all student debt would go to the bottom 80%.
70% of the $510 billion in PPP loans that were forgiven went to the top 20%.
Total hypocrisy!
