Congressman Kevin Hern had $1,082,302 in PPP loans forgiven.

.President Biden: “From day one of my Administration, I promised to fight to ensure higher education is a ticket to the middle class, not a barrier to opportunity. I will NEVER stop working to cancel student debt – no matter how many times Republican elected officials try to stop us.”

Morning Joe put together a montage of Trump saying he wants to 'terminate' Obamacare -- something he now claims he doesn't want to do

Gun violence remains the defining issue of the millennial generation.

From school shootings, to senseless domestic violence, to newly pervasive ghost guns — the United States is an outlier for all the wrong reasons.

Thank you, President Biden, for taking decisive action to save lives.

“I am mad at Democrats for failing to stop Republicans, so to punish them will let Republicans win” is a dumb position to take!

The specific issues this guy cites tell you exactly what’s happening. The economy being better before (it wasn’t)? Biden being more incoherent than Trump (he definitely isn’t)?

His brain has been hollowed out by memelike social media trash, plain and simple.

Tapper: What is this 9 month abortion claim? I've never heard of anyone getting an abortion one day before they're due. Republicans always say that. I've never heard of it happening

GOP Gov. Sununu: Right but um....

This is the kind of nonsense that happens when you replace a political party with a clown show. Let’s unpack this a bit:

This piece in Tablet Magazine by Allison Tombros Korman is deeply troubling, and a must read addition to the post-10/7 canon:

'On Nov. 17, 2023 I resigned from my dream job at the DC Abortion Fund (DCAF).

In the four months since my resignation, the organization seemed to have grown…

'I detect an undercurrent of self-doubt among some Americans about what your role in the world should be...At a time when our world is at history's turning point...Freedom and democracy are currently under threat around the globe.'

— Japanese PM Fumio Kishida addresses Congress

People are extremely resistant to this idea because it seems crankish, lots of predictions about the dire effects of technology have fallen flat. But this one is more specific and observable than most. We know the mechanism and you can see it on the micro level every single day.

Elections have consequences. Thank you President Biden for your relentless commitment to reducing gun violence and saving lives. This executive action will result in the largest expansion of Background Checks since the passage of the Brady Bill. The known loopholes are closing. Months…

This you?

.Nicole Hockley on President Biden's actions today to fight gun crime:

'This is a HUGE victory' and 'it means that there will be more families who will NOT be going through what I experienced every day.'

My worry about the upcoming election is that not enough Americans understand in their bones that the nation they have known, their lives as they have lived them, might be wiped away in day.

Echoing in my head are the words of a Slovak friend who made a fateful decision in 1968:

TODAY - *More* action to combat gun violence:

Biden-Harris Administration announces 'broadest expansion of federal background checks in decades in an attempt to regulate a fast-growing shadow market of weapons sold online that has contributed to gun violence.'

.President Biden: 'The war in Ukraine comes to an end by the House leader allowing a vote. There's overwhelming support for Ukraine among the majority of Democrats and Republicans. There should be a vote NOW.'

Just from a pure “how campaigns work” perspective, it’s going to be fascinating to see what this early ad spending by Democrats will do. That’s tens of millions of dollars defining Republicans before they can get on the air

Probably no coincidence that the more a congressman is suspected of working for Russian intelligence, the more averse they are to letting US intelligence do their job in rooting out those traitors working for Russian intelligence.

MAGA is Russia.
