Confused to see what my generation is doing to this country. Hoping education will eventually become desirable and affordable again. Never give up, I am a prime example, 37 gap years but I finished.

We need more of this across the USA! Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker has approved a set of new laws designed to strengthen protections for immigrants and limit abusive immigration enforcement practices.

There was a huge crowd at the Indiana Statehouse in opposition of redistricting. Let's see if the Senate listens to Hoosiers or to Washington.

Every real economist in America warned at the time he was imposing tariffs that it would affect each of these things, and deportations have affected the ability of farmers to access labor. This is all happening because of one man.

Oligarchy (noun):

A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.

I understand the president has the pardon power but I expected the press to make a bigger deal about the people Trump has been pardoning

Funny how 7-10 million of us managed to gather all over the country without a single violent incident that was not instigated by MAGA. But the minute a few hundred of us gather to protest ICE we turn into violent rioters who need to be pepper sprayed?

Smells like, complete and utter bullshit.
