Chipping away at us…
The Repayment Assistance Plan removed many professions from the designation of professional when reviewing lending caps.
Nursing, PA, PT, & audiology are excluded from the updated list. Others not considered professional include architecture, accounting, & mental health.
Still included? Theology.

Twitter now displays where accounts are from and it has confirmed that too many of the political accounts are out of country bots.

Why are folks still there? To argue with bots? A waste of precious time while enriching the richest man on Earth.

Most of us have no idea how bad it is inside ICE detention centers because they have kept it hidden. Then a truth teller shows up and says it plain.

The conditions are filthy. The treatment is inhumane. The abuse is Systematic and routine.

The New York Times obit for Alice Wong doesn’t mention Covid or Gaza

It ignores two of her biggest causes because of political bias

Alice fought tirelessly for Covid mitigations

She fought for the people of Gaza

She rightfully reminded us that the genocide in Gaza is a disability justice issue

It can be holding a door open for someone, offering a seat on the bus, or simply checking on the people who have been a part of your life's story.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

Mamdani: "My message to ICE agents & to everyone across this city is that everyone will be held to the same standard of the law. If you violate it, you must be held accountable. There is sadly a sense growing that certain people are allowed to violate that law, whether they be POTUS or ICE agents."

I never really had an opinion about FN until now and thats because I really only ever played it with 1 or 2 friends. But if this is true I’m fine with never playing it again and uninstalling it from my Switch because screw supporting JK Rowling and screw the push this tainted franchise is getting.

DHS says they “don’t arrest U.S. citizens for immigration enforcement.”

But at least 170 Americans they’ve detained know that’s not true.

Don’t ignore their stories.

If Trump can detain citizens—including combat Veterans—for days without cause, no one is safe from his whims.
Americans have been dragged, tackled, beaten, tased and shot by immigration agents.

They’ve had their necks kneeled on.

They’ve been held outside in the rain while in their underwear.

At least three citizens were pregnant when agents detained them.
