STAGGERING: This new study of 133 countries is the first to estimate the impact of all USAID’s work. In 2 decades, it saved *92M* lives. Current cuts, if not reversed, are forecast to cost *14M* lives thru 2030. thelancet.com/journals/lance…

The idea of building a concentration camp in a week, surrounding it with alligators & filling it with people kidnapped off the streets is not impossible But the idea of burning it down & physically confronting ICE agents is somehow off the table? That’s based in fear, not logic

the DNC needs to become anti-ICE today. it needs to start now. and voters should demand nothing less than a full rejection of its existence.

It’s far from the only factor, but I really really want our 2028 nominee to show outward and visceral disdain for Republicans.

Whenever politicians pass a bill that would benefit the rich at the expense of the poor, they should be required to convene a randomly selected group of low-income Americans empowered with full authority to veto the bill.

A political system that requires you to have 60 Senate votes to cancel student loans or raise the minimum wage but only 50 votes to enact the largest transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich in U.S. history.

It would cost $60 billion annually to make public universities free in the United States, and we just gave $150 billion more to the defense department in this bill.

Columbia canceled my course on race and media. But I’m teaching it to the people anyway. Next Monday, July 14th, is the first hybrid lecture of Race, Media, and International Affairs 101. Sold out course! 500+ students enrolled. We move! ✊🏾

The Department of Education had a way of keeping track of where student debtors were in their progress toward cancelation. They've now temporarily removed that progress counter. This means borrowers have no idea where they stand on their progress. forbes.com/sites/adammins…

Full blown militarized raid on horseback, military tactical vehicles, and soldiers on foot with a perimeter set around McArthur Park. Looks like a big show of force by ICE/Border Patrol. It’s unclear which other military presence is there. Our reporter is on the way.

BREAKING The IRS says that churches and other houses of worship can endorse political candidates to their congregations, carving out an exemption in a decades-old ban on political activity by tax-exempt nonprofits. Full Story: bit.ly/3GAcXin

Black folks are told to be patient, incremental progress is the only way. Then white folks reverse generations of progress in one election.
