Senator @JDVance said that economists disagree about whether tariffs lead to higher prices. So this week, the University of Chicago surveyed economists and asked them exactly this question.
Jesus' harshest words were directed towards those who used their religion as a tool of oppression and self serving power.
Jesus' harshest words were directed towards religious hypocrisy.
Not the poor, the immigrant, or the unbeliever.
May we remember this.
For far too long, our nation has encouraged one path to success: a four-year college degree.
As president, I will get rid of the unnecessary degree requirement for federal jobs.
No matter what happens tomorrow, I'm just happy that so many people have gotten to see how amazing @Tim_Walz is.
Infinitely proud to have worked for him (and be the person behind so many of these viral photos/videos of him). Here are a few of my favorite Walz memories 🧵
Other policies of Tim Walz I haven’t mentioned yet (as congressman & governor):
- opposed Wall st bailouts in 2008
- voted against outsourcing deals
- 100% rating from Planned Parenthood
- banned non-compete clauses
- raised minimum wage for small businesses
- raised taxes on multinational corporations
- protected gender affirming care
- banned medical providers from withholding care over debt
- protected construction workers from wage theft
- massive Minnesota infrastructure bill
Tim Walz is - by far - the most based Democrat governor in the country. With a 1 seat majority in Minnesota he did:
- universal free school meals
- legal weed
- carbon free electricity by 2040
- tax rebates for the working class up to $1,300 (making under $150k per year)
- 12 weeks paid family leave
- 12 weeks paid sick leave
- banned conversion therapy
- red flag laws for guns
- universal background checks for guns
- automatic voter registration
- free public college (under $80k)
- ban on PFAS (forever chemicals)
- $2.2 billion increase in k-12 school funding
- sectoral bargaining for nursing home workers
It reveals something deeply disturbing about our Christianity when we demand the government enforce the most literal and harsh interpretations of the few Bible verses about human sexuality, yet oppose the government carrying out any of the +3,000 verses about caring for the poor.
These are controlled demolitions of entire residential neighborhoods in Gaza. No active combat to be seen, no military justification whatsoever. Israel is acting on its threat to wipe Gaza off the map to make sure Palestinians cannot return. Ethnic cleansing clear as day.
In 1962, we organized sit-ins to end racist policies at the University of Chicago. In '63, I was arrested protesting segregated schools. But we were right.
I’m proud to see students protesting the war in Gaza.
Stay peaceful and focused. You’re on the right side of history.
Remember the pitched controversy months ago as claims were made that Israel had gone so far as to commit the terrible war crime of actually bombing A HOSPITAL in Gaza? Charts & graphs & radar were brought forth to try to assess blame. 36 hospitals later now there are none left.
NEVER FORGET that time trump said "there has to be some form of punishment" for women getting an abortion.
Don't let anyone forget.
RT the hell out of this.
Any person can see that ordering 1+ million people to move in under 24 hours is not possible. It is unacceptable.
The UN has already deemed the order “impossible” without “devastating humanitarian consequences.”
Humanity is at stake. Nearly half are children. We must halt this
