it’s genuinely reassuring to me that this is the most miserable and paranoid person in the entire world

I'm genuinely begging folks to read both @timnitgebru.bsky.social and Torres' "TESCREAL Bundle" and @adambecker.bsky.social's _More Everything Forever_ and connect these billionaires' eugenicist dreams to the GenAI products they're pushing onto every educational institution, K-college.

The myth of the debtor as an individual who made a bad choice obscures the reason that we are in debt. Medical debt doesn’t exist in countries with nationalized health care systems, and student debt is unheard of in parts of the world where public college is free.
Trump understands that federal student loan debt is a tool of social control — a way to structure society based on who gets relief and who doesn't. Sadly, he's using it to keep people indebted when he could use it to liberate people. This is classism. apnews.com/article/stud...
Student loan cancellation program could become Trump retribution tool, some advocates fear
President Donald Trump is revamping the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program, sparking concerns it could become a tool for political retribution.

The debt, deportation, and death bill has passed. Congress further decimates care work to fund violence work. Vital services eviscerated and ICE becomes the highest-funded federal law enforcement agency ever known. It hasn’t been sold this way, but it’s a massive public jobs program for fascists.
THREE Ohioans voted for the Senate budget bill drastically cutting Medicaid even though “More than a quarter of Ohio's population receives health coverage through Medicaid.”
Concerns for Medicaid remain as Ohio elected leaders play key role in Trump's 'Big Beautiful Bill' victory
Trump is not only a total bonehead, he’s also ridiculously cruel.
“Alligator Alcatraz” will begin operations on Wednesday. This is your reminder that a prison without due process is a concentration camp.
The Senate Republicans just passed one of the most morally odious, stupid pieces of legislation in history. It’s hard to overstate how much people hate this bill. Could it cost the GOP their Senate majority? www.messageboxnews.com/p/will-the-b...
Will the Big Ugly Bill Cost the GOP the Senate?
The Republicans just passed one of the least popular, most odious pieces of legislation in history

Tax cuts for the extremely wealthy at the expense of the health of the poor and working class. The GOP continues to bend the knee to Trump and raise the middle finger to the rest of us. Shameful.
By the numbers, this Senate bill: ➡️adds $3.3 trillion to the national debt, according to estimates. ➡️could cut up to 12 million people off of their health care coverage. ➡️provides $114 billion in tax cuts to the top one percent. @garrisonhayes.bsky.social breaks it down.
Just to be clear about the big bill Republicans are passing: it will remove the authority for a President to eliminate federal student debt through executive order. That, sadly, confirms what we already knew — that the authority existed and was clear. This bill is very, very dangerous.
A party that actually wanted to mobilize young and disillusioned voters would be studying Zohran Mamdani’s campaign like the Bible
“The real story is that manipulative neocons exploited Trump’s jealous hatred of Barack Obama to convince him to rip up the (Iran nuke deal), precisely so we’d arrive at the crossroads we’ve reached today. He’s giving them what they used him for, because he’s exactly the mark they thought he was.”

Rachel Maddow: “If Trump wasn’t getting the intelligence that Iran is on the verge of a nuclear weapon from the intelligence community… who is he getting it from? Israel?” The right question. And pretty obviously the right answer.
This is why right now is dumber than thr Iraq runup. There was a year of endless propaganda on top of the war mindset of post-9/11 and Bush at +60% approval. Right now its a historically unpopular president following an unpopular ally into a war nobody wants and he's making zero attempt to sell it
it was absolutely this stupid, and the political press was all the exact same people.
I was too young to be ware of the Iraq invasion debate but was it this degree of stupid? It can't have been this stupid.
One of the more important health care cuts in the legislation would affect Medicare beneficiaries: some of the most vulnerable seniors and people with disabilities who are on Medicare.
Yes, They’re Going After Medicare Too
A wonky change in Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill would hammer some of the very people Republicans insist they are protecting.

Can this administration just be explicit that they want queer and trans kids to die, or at least that they genuinely do not care if they do?
