Four years ago today, Trump called it "stupendous" and "joyous" news that American unemployment was only at 13.3%.

Four years later, unemployment has been under 4% for 27 straight months.

Yes, we are indeed better off than we were four years ago.

@rbreich yeah, but you need 6 of those jobs to afford to live.

50 billionaire families have spent $600 million+ on the 2024 elections, which is .06% of their total wealth.

The equivalent donation for an avg household would be ~$100.

This means 50 billionaires have the political-spending capacity of 6 million American families.

Oligarchy.

@rbreich we are a plutocracy. This isn’t a republican or democrat thing it’s both of them.

Trump would let states monitor pregnancies and prosecute people who violate abortion bans.

He would use the National Guard to deport undocumented people.

He might fire US Attorneys who refused to prosecute his enemies.

None of this is conjecture. He said these things himself.

@rbreich lol got news for you. The state doesn’t need to monitor pregnancy. Biden ask Trump to work with him on an immigration bill. What we got right now is a president that is so ideologically devoted to a foreign country that is committing genocide that he would let America democracy fail if it meant holding the said country accountable. Also for the democrats no putting up a viable candidate.

TODAY: Biden announces major action on student debt relief.

What's in the news?

Trump's shifting abortion stance, Trump suing his judge, Trump's fundraising claims.

TOMORROW: Look for another story about how voters don't feel like Biden's done anything.

See how this works?

@rbreich also Biden “I never really believed in the my body my choice” also “the scotus made that difficult decision a lot easier” ie abortion. Neither one of these guys should be in office.
