If you’re one of the tens of millions of hardworking people wondering why your $10K or $20K student loan forgiveness is on hold, here’s why.

A GOP plaintiff—who himself had $48K in PPP loans forgiven—is suing because he only got only $10K—not $20K—in student loan forgiveness.🤦🏽‍♂️ So he’s suing to burn it all down. The GOP hypocrisy and war on working people is truly a thing to behold.

And this is why we can’t have nice things. Smh.

While Democrats just unanimously voted for railroad workers, 207 out of 210 Republicans voted NO on 7 days paid sick time for railroad workers.

Even though billionaire railroad corps enjoy ~15% profit increase this year, spent $26.5B on stock buybacks & dividends, & previously provided 0 paid sick days—the GOP still sided with them over workers. What a disgrace.

Stop this war on working Americans. Vote GOP Out.

The rollback of Twitter’s covid misinformation policy is just the latest pivot since Elon Musk took control of the company a month ago.

You don’t have to be progressive to grasp Nazis and Nazism are bad things and contrary to American principles. It just takes memory or a history class about what side Americans were on. Over 16M Americans fought in WWII, over 400k died and nearly 700k were wounded to defend democracy and America.

Funny how if billionaires leave b/c Govt raises billionaire taxes, it’s Govt’s fault—but as teachers leave because Govt won’t raise teacher salaries, it’s the teachers fault.🤔

Protecting billionaires & exploiting teachers in poverty is class warfare against working people.

Yesterday I posted a petition to demand Congress pass permanent protections for DACA recipients.

Someone responded that DACA recipients should be deported and "come legally." When I pointed out that by definition DACA recipients were children and had no choice, he responded that it wasn't his problem.

This cruelty will destroy our nation. Today, if you're grateful for safe residence, please speak up for DACA recipients & demand justice for them. Thank you.

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones was one of the white supremacists stopping his Black classmates from desegregating North Little Rock High School in 1957.

In 2017 Jones vehemently opposed Kaepernick’s peaceful protest against racism. Some things never change.

Jerry Jones has never hired a Black head coach. He could lead change.

Decades after the segregation battles of his youth, Jerry Jones has modernized the NFL’s revenue model but hasn’t hired a Black head coach.
