In 2010, I graduated from Drake Law School with $100,000 in student loan debt. I’ve been paying for over 13 years. I stopped looking at my outstanding balance when it passed $196,000 last year. It’s just too painful.
In 2012, I graduated from Fordham Law School with $180,000 is student loan debt. I’ve been paying loans for 11 years. Even paid two of them off completely. In 2023, my balance is $206,000.

An elite, white majority determining after just 50 years of weak, half-hearted affirmative action efforts, that they are the ones to decide that enough has been done to address centuries of explicit racial exclusion against Black people is the most American ruling ever.

This
A program originally designed to address the specific, explicit racism against enslaved Africans & their descendants is not racist against other groups. This is an intentionally obtuse & convenient way of evaluating policies in nation where only 1 grp experienced chattel slavery.

A person who loses the popular vote for president can still end up as president.
What is a fact about your country that sounds made up but is actually true?

I don't understand why Putin just won't cede territory to the Wagner Republic. Shouldn't he just give peace a chance?

In any just world, and in any world in which Dems could do politics, there would be calls tonight for both Alito & Thomas to resign from the Supreme Court - and calls for impeachment if they refused to do so. But in our real world, they won’t even be subpoenaed by the Senate.πŸ€·πŸ½β€β™‚οΈ

This is how every Democrat should talk about the economy. I’m not a fan of Newsom the person, but this is well done.
Newsom: 71% of the GDP in America are blue counties. Progressive policies. Seven of the top ten dependent states are your states. We’re subsidizing your states because of your policies

Dear @Cubs please make @STR0 a Cub for life. Pay him what he wants. Top quality person and player. Baseball is so much more fun with him on our team.
Replying to @ChiefCub
My agent and I made multiple attempts to engage them on an extension. Club wasn’t interested in exploring it now. Will see how it plays out! Love everything about the @Cubs organization!

β€œI don’t want anyone looking through my boxes” is a very funny thing to say about your totally pointless hoard of secrets that you apparently cannot part with. Gollum-esque

A reminder that Pence is not the non-fascistic alternative to Trump in this GOP presidential race.
Mike Pence: "We're going to clean house at the Department of Justice."

the democratic party that lives in the imagination of republicans sounds so much cooler and badass than the democratic party we have
There is no limit to what these people will do to protect their power & destroy those who threaten it, even if it means ripping our country apart & shredding public faith in the institutions that hold our republic together

Preach. An correct outcome we weren’t expecting in a case where the result *should* have been a foregone conclusion means we need to intensify Supreme Court reform efforts, not retreat from them.

Wow, this was the thread I didn’t know I needed to see today.
From The Atlantic's profile of Licht comes this gem, one screamed at us by pundits and media executives since the Tea Party uprising of 2009. It seems impossible to explain to them that we heard all these views a million times and simply do not like them. Yes. As a country. 🧡
