    I wouldn't believe it if I hadn't heard it directly from so many people, but it's a common belief on the US right that the Soviet Union collapsed because they were so intimidated by Reagan firing all the air traffic controllers

    We spoke with many Flint residents this week who are STILL getting rashes, losing hair, or getting itchy/burning eyes in the shower--7 and a half years after the disastrous 2014 water switch. The corporate & local media have reported the water is now safe

    Active rashes and scabs from Flint residents that grow and get worse every time they shower…but, sure the water is just fine

    Science & data are warning of imminent catastrophes requiring radical action to avert disaster — yet politicians, media & Dem voters keep fetishizing party loyalty & corporate-friendly incrementalism. Asteroids are headed toward Earth — brace for impact.

    Hopefully house leadership including read the full memo and see that the path forward recommended here is to pass my bill on student debt cancellation. The freedom to prosper does rest with full cancelation as they note at the end of the memo 🙌🏽

    This memo, produced by the Pelosi megadonor and quietly circulated among Congress, says a student debt forgiveness exec order would be illegal. The memo was not provided to the general public. This is how the sausage is made.

    This is the key document from student debt cancellation supporters on why it would be an economic win. It was underwritten by the Swigs, who are now attacking student debt cancellation by executive order.
