Keeping public universities, trade schools and community colleges so expensive is bad for the economy, national security, and economic mobility. Everyone should have the option of going to 4 years of college for free or a tax credit of equivalent value to do what they want.

People like Joe Biden, Beto O’Rourke, and Stacy Abrahams, and Pete Buttigieg are what this Country needs now, and in the future. If you agree, please retweet!

Fascist Ron DeSantis called on his supporters to physically assault Dr. Anthony Fauci. This is an explicit call for violence against an 81 year old Government Official — a crime punishable by up to 5 years in prison. Ron DeSantis should be removed from the ballot and prosecuted.

Does Matt Gaetz own a fleet of ice cream trucks and a chain of prom dress stores that I'm not aware of? How on earth did he qualify for a $482K PPP loan?

You can get arrested for shoplifting things that cost under $20, but walk away with top secret classified documents and you can have rallies, fundraisers, and golf tournament appearances without being bothered.

You know what’s despicable? Lindsey Graham refusing to testify to a Georgia grand jury about Trump’s crimes while simultaneously bleating about how DOJ must be transparent & unseal the search warrant affidavit so we can see all the evidence of Trump’s crimes.

Congress is about to give a $52 billion subsidy to companies that make semiconductor chips.
Meanwhile, Intel – the world's biggest chip maker – had $79B in revenue last year.
And their CEO's pay ($179M) was 1,711x an average employee.
This is the height of corporate welfare.

It’s time for the media to reassess the way they cover the Biden administration. Big things are getting done, and while they may not be as sensational as injecting bleach or nuking hurricanes, they deserve much more attention.

-PACT Act passes
-Inflation Reduction Act deal
-Gas hits 50+ day low (median US price below $4/gal)

And he oversaw it all with COVID.

I saw over several small manufacturing companies health insurance. I call it the parking lot test.
Medical industry, insurance companies and lawyers parking lots always have the most expensive cars. It’s the modern day mafia.

The Democrats tried to ban the gun that was used in today’s massacare, but Republicans allowed the gun to be used to kill more people. Democrats want to save lives. Republicans want more deaths. I’m tired of this violence. Vote for Democrats if you want to stop mass shootings.

Finally, the Supreme Court of the United States has made itself irrelevant. When an entity ignores the people, the people will have no respect for it.
We must be clear about never, ever allowing Donald Trump near political office ever again. He needs to be held accountable for all that he has done to our beloved country. We must also be vigilant about others who will do the same. We must demand better.
