Cutting "red tape" (aka public protections), as Reeves is doing, does not save money. Instead, it transfers costs from the rich to the poor. Other people pay for financial recklessness, filthy rivers, air pollution, lax building standards and consumer rip-offs. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Tyrants view educated citizens as their greatest enemy. Slaveholders stopped the enslaved from learning to read. Nazis burned books. Dictators censor media. That’s why Trump is attacking the Dept. of Education, science, and the arts – to prevent us from learning. It's fascism.

Never before in U.S. history has one man exercised such unbridled discretion affecting the lives of so many, while simultaneously preventing others — Congress, the courts, the American people — from having a say or even knowing what he’s going to do next. This is dictatorship.

Why is Trump waging a war on public broadcasting and the Department of Education? Because he wants us less informed, less knowledgeable, and less connected. This attack on our minds is central to the fascist playbook. youtu.be/rEH7sF6pA4s?...

let's take stock here: (Democratic) Presidents, via the Dept of Education, can't cancel student debt because statutes don't clearly authorize it. Republican Presidents can cancel/shut down the Dept of Education because, even though only Congress can shut down departments ..., ... 🤷‍♀️ YOLO?

I support Palestine Action. I support the right to protest, including nonviolent direct action, especially when careful action is taken to dismantle the weapons of war (paid for by our tax money) to try to save human lives. youtu.be/pFLmTnQTsps
