@RVAwonk I hope this gets the attention it deserves. This is where I hoped your research was heading.

@MeidasTouch @MeidasTouchPod Saddled with debt after college. No possibility of home ownership. Uncertain job market. Uncertain any sane policies will return to correct things.

This is a good reminder that John Roberts is exactly who John Lewis told us he was.

The Southern Poverty Law Center was indicted for paying sources to infiltrate hate groups, a tactic federal agencies have used for decades. https://t.co/flekWop4XX

@Hryyb63289 @Gdtrfb1974 @wkyc @Honesty4OhioEd The student debt crisis isn’t being driven by a handful of arts https://t.co/9bSg6F8Vco’s driven by decades of runaway tuition, predatory lending structures, and a system that treats education like a luxury good. Arts programs are just a convenient scapegoat.

@Hryyb63289 @Gdtrfb1974 @wkyc @Honesty4OhioEd Cheering fewer opportunities means our system is already in trouble.

@Gdtrfb1974 @wkyc @Honesty4OhioEd And proof in the replies that it’s the uneducated that support them.

@ReichlinMelnick @sandyhanes1 Shame on those responsible. May they be brought to Justice.

NEW: The Buffalo Medical Examiner rules that the death of a legally blind elderly Burmese refugee dropped off by Border Patrol at a closed shop late at night in winter was a homicide.

He died of a burst ulcer caused by severe stress brought on by dehydration and hypothermia.

The Trump admin is full-on financially destroying student debtors right now without much of a fight from big national Democrats.

They're raising payments, transferring a $2 trillion portfolio to an entirely different agency with no oversight, etc

Schumer, Jeffries, Dems silent.

If you're among the more than 43 million Americans who have federal student loan debt, significant changes are coming. https://t.co/VKMd3NIX3Q

@NewsHour For those inevitable commenters who won't read the article:

Existing loan-holders are going to be forced to choose 1 of 2 seriously bad repayment plans that will ensure financial hardship for decades.

New students are even more screwed.

[The Debt Collective 🟥 @StrikeDebt]

The idea that AI robots could ever replace the work of human teachers is rooted in sexism, classism and a gross disregard for humanity.

It's delusion at every level.

All we have to do is pay teachers what they're worth—a living wage—and make education free at every level.

“The region’s language is mowing the grass”@DavidBrooks224 @TheAtlantic. No, this is Israel’s language that it employs to indiscriminately slaughter thousands of civilians. The comment goes unchallenged by @NewsHour @CapehartJ. Disgusted how this language is normalized.

@EDUnderSecKent @POTUS It was policy therefore not illegal.

More good journalism like this please.

This @postandcourier investigation of the woman accusing Pres Trump and Epstein of sexual assault is excellent. The allegations remain unproven. But the reporters confirmed elements of her story, and the blackmail by Epstein illuminates his business model. https://t.co/yJQco6MgLy

BREAKING

Spain’s MEP Irene Montero:

“No woman has ever been freed by American bombs or illegal aggression.

Not in Syria. Not in Iraq. Not in Lebanon. Not in Afghanistan.

And it will not happen in Iran either.

They hide behind women’s rights to justify their colonial wars.”

[Kyle Cheney @kyledcheney]

Amid a torrent of sometimes-shocking ICE cases, this one stands out.

ICE labeled a man "the worst of the worst," accused him of assaulting officers and posted his picture on their website — two days before DOJ charged him.

The man said ICE were actually the aggressors, lured him from his workplace, arrested him aggressively and detained him illegally.

The charges were dropped, but he was detained for six weeks, only winning release when a judge threatened to hold the administration in contempt.

Judge Nelson called the situation Orwellian and shocking. https://t.co/9FaN2X2btt
