The more the need for work is minimized, the more the need for #basicincome goes up. A universal rule, about to be.

BREAKING: In a huge victory, the U.N. has ruled that my 786-day house arrest violates international law — including my right to a fair trial, right to a fair judge, and right to be free from arbitrary detention.
Urging my immediate release and reparations.

The $3.5 trillion reconciliation bill is spread out over 10 years, meaning that the average of $350 billion spent per year is less than half of the funding that Congress authorizes yearly for the Pentagon.

Manchin calls the tax proposals "vengeful"
OK, let's get specific. What's vengeful?
Closing tax loopholes for private equity managers?
A 3% surtax on income over $5 million?
Increasing the top tax bracket from 37% to 39.6%?

While his claim to be “a stable genius” never had credibility, Trump has indeed earned the “King of Debt” title. Republicans’ “dine and dash” strategy – running up a tab for a massive feast by the wealthiest one-percent and then dodging the bill to cover it, is surely a new low.

c) federal government is ONLY entity that can borrow A LOT and never pay. that's hard to believe.
d) U.S. can borrow A LOT at very low cost. that's really hard to believe.

Social media platforms can provide significant benefits. They also have detriments. One of which is that what you read may not be real or has foreign influence.
Don’t trust everything you read on social media. And don’t trust your cousin’s friend. Be aware.

The case of Gabby Petito has renewed calls for people and the media to pay greater attention to missing Indigenous women and other people of color. The family of the slain 22-year-old, who vanished on a cross-country trip, is echoing those calls. apne.ws/bhIiqge

For too long, our economy has only worked for those at the top. Hard-working families have been left out of the deal. As @RepLloydDoggett explains, the #BuildBackBetter Act will ensure families are dealt back in.

Listen up!
Democrats don't want to vote on a higher *number."
But under this approach, Dems *don't have to* vote for a number!
They simply tie the debt limit to the national debt. Solves all the problems here.
At the least, ask the parliamentarian about it.
Right now, Dems are searching for *another* procedural trick on the debt limit.
This is absurd! Kill it already! It can be done in reconciliation, by simply tying it to the debt.
This solves Dems' substantive *and* political problems. Here's how:
