Dear President Biden,
In the spirit of Dark Brandon, please use one of your Executive Orders to CANCEL ALL STUDENT DEBT.
That way, if trump wanted to reverse it, he'd have to disappoint all those families and reinstate all that debt.
You have immunity.
Just do it.

The Red State Brain Drain Isn’t Coming. It’s Happening Right Now.
As conservative states wage total culture war, college-educated workers — physicians, teachers, professors, and more — are packing their bags and moving to blue states.

Boy are Republicans struggling right now. They're finding out that tariffs are actually taxes, Obamacare is actually the ACA, and that Project 2025 was actually the plan all along.

The Enabling Act allowed [Hitler] to issue laws without the consent of Germany’s parliament, laying the foundation for the complete Nazification of German society. The “Law to Remedy the Distress of the People and the Reich" was passed in March 1933. This is Trump's plan.

Turning Neighbors Into Enemies
Throughout history, political leaders have used fear of “the other” to divide communities and consolidate power. Trump and the GOP are following this playbook by stoking fears about hardworking immigrants—painting them as threats instead of neighbors.

Why do so many feel like they've fallen behind?
It's not because of immigrants, trans people, the “deep state,” or any other bogeyman trotted out by the GOP.
It's because big corporations and billionaires have rigged markets and siphoned off most of the economy's gains

Profit Built on Suffering
What begins with fear can end in tragedy. Hitler’s early plans to deport Jewish people led to death camps, forced labor, and unimaginable suffering. It’s a grim reminder of how policies targeting vulnerable groups escalate when driven by greed and hate.

Resistance philanthropy needs to change. Here's one possible approach.
💡 Political giving
Instead of focusing on cramped & polarized confines of election cycle, think bigger.
Major gifts would be better directed to funding efforts centered on democracy & pluralism like electoral reforms, bridge-building, depolarization, & civic infrastructure.

Funding the Resistance Is Not a Winning Strategy. Here’s What Is.
Billions spent fighting Trumpian populism hasn’t worked. Practicing a pluralistic approach to grant making will.

Dehumanization Has Consequences
History teaches us that the path to atrocity begins with dehumanization. Hitler’s regime once proposed mass deportations of Jewish people in Europe. When that failed, the horrors escalated—concentration camps, forced labor, and genocide.
