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

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen.

Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

Investigation of democrats in Epstein files is a ruse

If there is an active investigation they can refuse to release the files

The β€˜investigation’ is just a way to indefinitely hold the files

Bondi will control how long the investigation takes

They don’t expect to actually bring charges they just need to delay the release of the files

The America First guy has brought in 566 foreign workers during his 5 years in office to work at his companies instead of hiring Americans. And counting.

Authoritarianism can only succeed when democracy fails to deliver for working people.

Authoritarian parties can only succeed when the pro-democracy parties fail to fight for working people.

We need a new democracy and a new party system which can represent working people.

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 β€”not 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

He is a true narcissist

I am appalled at the depths of depravity that exists in the current administration

appalled but not surprised

In the midst of a 40+ day Republican shutdown with major flight delays and being short 3,000 air traffic controllers, our INSANE President is ENCOURAGING ATCs to quit heading into the holiday season.

Trump is taking a wrecking ball to our air safety infrastructure.

There was a time when 90% of Americans would have understood how deranged in every conceivable way a post like this is

I mean if you showed this to any American in 2001 they wouldn't even understand what they were looking at or what sort of deranged creature could possibly speak like this in public

Resign Chuck

You sold out to a president who would blithely starve Americans so he can give tax cuts to the rich by cutting healthcare subsidies

You don’t have the balls needed to actually stand up to the GOP depravity

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―\_(ツ)_/Β―

Absolutely agree

Trump had no problem starving Americans so he can deny healthcare to others in order to fund tax breaks for the rich

I’m disgusted that Democrats caved because once again they could not fathom the depth of depravity that exists in the White House

It’s a convenient cloak that the Trump and the GOP wears when they starve Americans so they can deny healthcare to others in order to fund tax breaks for the rich

It’s just part of the β€˜let them eat cake’ mentality that exists in the White House
