Literacy rates have dropped 12% since 2017
21% of US adults are illiterate
54% of US adults have a literacy level of 5th grade or lower
This is why MAGA is easily misled
This is why Trump is doing everything he can to suppress education
A key step in becoming a dictator is to suppress education

Voters want a Democratic Party that fights back against the forces that have rigged the system and made their lives more difficult.
A party that comforts the afflicted and afflicts the comfortable βnot a party that buckles and capitulates.
When will party leadership learn this lesson?

Trump has zero ability to understand the impact of his actions on anyone but himself
If someone asks him about impact of his actions, he always blames someone else

New: Sens. King, Shaheen, Hassan led negotiations on a deal that will have enough Democratic support to pass in the Senate, I'm told.
This is the package:
- CR thru Jan 30
- A vote on a ACA bill by a December, on a DEM bill
- Minibus WHICH INCLUDES reversal of shutdown RIFs and back pay and protections against them happening in the future
PLUS SNAP is funded through the fiscal year 26
Dems have spent the past two months saying they're fighting to address the crisis of spiking healthcare costs and now they're caving for a deal that does nothing to address healthcare costs Β―\_(γ)_/Β―
