Sorry, let me see if I understand this: the economy not only exceeded expectations by defying a loss but actually *improved* and this is somehow negatively framed?
Breaking News: The U.S. economy grew 0.6% in the third quarter, a 2.6% annual rate, a rebound, but not enough to ease worries about a recession.

"They want reparations b/c they think the people that do the crime are owed that."
Tuberville here directly equates descendants of slaves w/ "the people that do crime."
This is racist, dangerous, despicable language & ideology spoken publicly.

Dems: Climate change is a serious threat. Immigrants and trans kids are human beings. Stop cops from shooting unarmed Blacks.
GOP: Distribute assault weapons to all white Christians. Install Trump as Pharaoh. Let embryos vote.
Media: We're so polarized! Extremists on both sides!

MAGA Boomer: At your age I paid off college & bought a house w/hard work
Millennials: At your age college was 3% of median salary—Now its 20%. A median home was $17K—Now its $363K. The top marginal tax rate was 70%—now its 37%. You worked hard—& then closed the door behind you.

I mean, there is an objective answer to this: no, it won't make inflation worse. Any inflation that might result from student loan forgiveness is baked in at this point because the loans have been on pause for over two years. cnb.cx/3KdQAfT

***Misleading headline***
The "special" grand jury currently investigating Trumplestiltskin doesn't have the power to indict, but their evidence can be presented to a regular grand jury for possible indictment.

I would forgive 20k in student debt every time Manchin blows up a deal. I would also reschedule marijuana. When Sofi and Navient call I would forward the calls to him.

After surfing today a black father came up to me says “that was you surfing earlier right? It was so great seeing someone brown out there in the waves, you were doing a great job! I had to bring my son out to watch!” behind him is standing this cute little 5-8 year old boy 🥺 🧵

It is not the duty of girls and women to stop violent men by making themselves romantically available
This is an absolutely disgusting angle, @nypost
