She was poised to win the leadership race by actually getting people to join the party. The old guard didn't like that, so they crushed the next generation to maintain their grip on power.
Also, congrats to Coloradans on taxing the rich and feeding kids.

Sadly the current right-wing coalition government in Finland has cut the funding for the nationβs βHousing Firstβ success story, & homelessness is now on the rise again. That just reinforces the fact that such programs work, if political ideology doesnβt stand in the way.

Business Insider headline reads: UPS is telling customers that their packages coming to the US are marked for destruction.
About a month ago, the Trump administration got rid of the de minimis exemption, whereby packages valued under $800 could slide in without import duties. Now there's a backlog as the government can't process all of this paperwork, leading to UPS just destroying packages
