I honestly don't get "Here's a list of all the ways that the Department of Education has failed. Let's maintain the status quo."

And Doctors and Nurses should work for free, I guess.
Every single penny of medical debt should be outright canceled. Nobody should owe medical debt. Ever.
He was great in F1. I think he would be a solid choice.

"Make affordable health insurance available to more people. The law provides consumers with subsidies ('premium tax credits') that lower costs for households with incomes between 100% and 400% of the federal poverty level (FPL)." - About the Affordable Care Act
*taps the sign* Health insurance isn’t healthcare. It’s a barrier to care that allows people to die and go into debt for the sake of private profits. We need universal healthcare, not national health insurance.
My Mother was born at home in 1937. When she was retiring, she needed her Birth Certificate, but she had never had a copy. She had to contact the State of Florida, and they sent her one for a nominal fee.
I met a Black man last night that was born in the 1950s inside a house. He has no birth certificate so he can’t get a passport.
I had completely forgotten that the Constitution has a Car Wash Exception.
They’re going after people selling fruit and working at car washes. It’s unconstitutional and it must end.
I don't want to live in a world where Hamas supporters excuse their continuing to hold hostages. But here we are.
I want to live in a world where people would never, ever, ever, tweet like this in response to a siege-famine placed over 2 million people
Jodie Foster has a net worth of $100 Million. I don't support anyone attacking her.
I haven't had Cable since December 2016.
CBS's canceling the Stephen Colbert show, when his program was the highest-rated evening talk show on the air, signals that they have gone full-blown MAGA! Let's trash their ratings, too! If you agree, drop a like and pass it on! Bye, CBS! 👋
If the rest of the world cared, they would have have evacuated these people from their "open air prison" years ago. Instead, they insist they stay put.
I honestly don’t think Israel will survive as a state if it goes through with this looming wave of mass exterminations through starvation. It will be a matter of time, but the community of nations is ultimately made up of people, and the people of the world will not accept long…
Mark Buffalo has a net worth of $35 Million. Not counting the rumored $20 Million all the actors are getting for the next two Avengers films.
🚨 Mark Ruffalo — “Capitalism is killing us… we need a form of socialism.”
Barack Obama's DACA is still the most unconstitutional thing a President has ever done.
In the last 15 years over 30 democracies have successfully prosecuted leaders who violated their constitutions
A few years ago I made a short YouTube video in several hours. On Thursday, I used Google Vid + a script rewritten by AI to make a much improved one in 20 minutes or so.
User generated content fueled by AI is the future of entertainment, for better…or worse.
It sucks to some people that the Israelis refuse to die.
I still cannot believe this. The iron dome is not defensive. It’s part of the infrastructure of genocide, shielding Israelis from the consequences of their relentless destruction of everyone around them. AOC is a smart person, I believe she understands that, meaning her…
Imagine a sport with multiple World Championships.
there’s something a bit funny about super bowl winners being called WORLD champions after winning an AMERICAN football league finale, just a bit
Yes, dismantling government is the final step of Marx's workers paradise. And it never happens.
This libertarian talking point is tired. Socialists realize the government is corrupt & exists to serve the ruling class & oppress the working class—which is why socialists want to dismantle the state & replace it with workers’ councils in order to give power directly to workers.
The members of Antifa should feel insulted.
The American left desperately needs to form paramilitaries and needed that for quite a while now.
I love when people overreact to autocorrect. It is one of the most charming aspects of this website.
There are only two axes!
