I remembered this coming up during obama's campaign & talk of "generation jones" but couldn't actually recall the "jones" part & had to find my way there on wiki. did not expect to find her picture there as an example!
![screenshot of excerpt from Wikipedia article on "Generation Jones", reading:
"Generation Jones
Social cohort spanning the late Baby Boomer Generation and the early Generation X
Generation Jones is the social cohort worldwide and micro generation cusper segment of the latter half of the baby boomer generation to the first year of Generation X. The term Generation Jones was first coined in 1999 by the American cultural commentator Jonathan Pontell, who identified the cohort as those born from 1954 to 1965 in the U.S., who were children during Watergate, the oil crisis, and stagflation rather than during the 1950s, but slightly before Gen X.

The real reason immigration isn't fixed, and a path to citizenship hasn't been created, workers rights...
Maria is picking blueberries near Arvin CA. She earns by how many pounds and buckets she can pick in a day. Sometimes the field quality is good but other times she barely makes enough to cover her expenses. #WeFeedYou

The approval rating of The Supreme Court has plummeted to historic lows. Between the Court's radical rulings and blatant displays of corruption, the American people have lost faith in this Court. What can Congress do to win it back?
We've Got A Supreme Court Problem
The Supreme Court is out of control, it's time for Congress to step in with real reforms and ethical accountability.

It's insane to think #Republicans will still ride with #Trump for the general election.
What's even more crazy is that these #felony convictions on 34 counts will cause some people to believe that Trump is a victim in all of this.
I'm just confused about #America 🤷🏿
