BREAKING: Congress just passed an $886 BILLION Pentagon budget.

Time and time again we’re told we can’t afford to address homelessness, poverty, or provide adequate healthcare in this country.

But there’s always money for endless war.

What an absolute disgrace.

These are the impossible choices that a debt-financed system leaves us with. Many of us dream of what is really a bare minimum—to be safely housed, to be able to care for our loved ones and not be in the red. We reject this choice and demand reparative public goods for everyone.

Folks—we finally have merch!

Our shirts are designed by formerly incarcerated people, and by wearing them, you’ll be directly supporting our work to cancel people’s unjust debts and build power.

Will Stancil and Nate Silver deserve each other. They are both embarrassingly wrong. It's like watching two people who have never boxed before stumble around and throw wild punches with all their weight behind them and miss every time

This is unprecedented as far as I know. It is, in fact, historic. Biden staffers organized a vigil outside the calling on their boss to call for a ceasefire.
Wow!
And to the staffers, thank you so much!

Where is FIRE? Where are all the people so worried about repression of campus speech and academic freedom? This is just deplorable. Society is regressing and we should all be appalled.

When millions of people need to work a second or third job to meet their basic needs, the economy is not working for them. It's actually that simple.

When Biden brags about 'fixing PSLF' what he means is that before on 1% of people who qualify actually got relief. Now that's around ~20%. The other 80% are going to be in collection for the rest of their lives.

They are calling PSLF 'fixed'

The Debt Collective 🟥 To dems, starting with a half-assed approach and gradually whittling it down to 'barely works but slightly better than before' is a victory. See the ACA.

'We cancelled 11% of debt for 8% of people with it after promising to cancel all of it for everyone. Why aren't you happy?'

Shout out to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Rashida Tlaib for introducing this groundbreaking bill.

Can someone explain to us like we're 5 why Biden can cancel $132 billion but not $500 billion? Or $1.2 trillion? Or all of it?
