Trump just removed MLK Day and Juneteenth from the list of free entry days at national parks, and replaced them with his birthday

But *we’re* the ones engaging in “identity politics”

It is a goal to be able to disappear after Thanksgiving and reemerge in June.
After multiple years of doing this now, I completely understand going to a warm climate location during a NY/East Coast winter

Lol lol lol lol lol… so a cheaper less viable social safety net
Could $1,000 “Trump Accounts” for newborns, plus an additional $250 for some children 10 and under, convince Americans to have more kids?

They may not, but supporters say the accounts show the government is dedicating attention to children.

Imagine thinking a measly $1250 is an improvement over adequate healthcare and safety nets.

That doesn't even cover diapers and daycare for a month.

i think it’s healthy to catalog your hate.

just because you hateful don’t mean you can’t be organized.

Parents who are both crushed with a shit job, both having to work overtime just to stay afloat, don't have as much time for endless bureaucratic hoop jumping and means-testing as parents not being ground down.

By design.

Wealth gives parents *time*, time to navigate deliberately labyrinthine bureaucracies, time to prepare for a confusion of paperwork and deadlines, etc.

Simply having extra time available, makes it easier for a parent to get their kid accomodations.
I keep thinking about LSAC data saying students with accommodations get higher scores.

The most obvious possibility to me is not "some students unfairly get accommodations"; it is, "people with wealth are more likely to get accommodations."

Hi . If these are the numbers if these are the possibilities when Dems do not have a platform ?

I’m not talking to pundits friends .. I’m talking to you

Make a wish list take it to your LOCAL Dem and stab it to the door like Martin Luther

Does anyone else have a food they hate beyond reason and just won't eat no matter how well someone prepares it? I don't necessarily mean a whole dish, it can be a single ingredient. For some people it's the thing where cilantro tastes like soap to them.
