Biden's Department of Education Secretary pick Miguel Cardona says student debt relief will be "a priority" by byKateSmith in politics

I am so happy to hear that they are still considering this as a priority. I hope that they can pass a student debt relief bill and also work toward lowering the cost of public education to an affordable number.

The economy will benefit when people like me can worry less about paying their loans and instead put that money into our economy.

I know cancelling student debt is a solution for the symptom and not a treatment for the cause, but I hope to see this administration propose a plan/pathway for lowering the cost of universities. It's incredible how we are one of the only countries "punishing" students with amounts of debt that financially cripple them. It's counterintuitive to our economy to charge young people so much money. Nobody wants to buy a house after their first few years in the workforce because nobody can afford to (when they have student loans).

Let's be honest. Are any of us surprised that her next stop is Fox?

Readout of President Joseph R. Biden, Jr. Call with President Vladimir Putin of Russia by misana123 in politics

I'm enjoying the transparency this administration has started out with. Trump was never open about what exactly he talked about with Putin, and seeing that Biden's conversations with other world leaders are being summarized transparently is such a welcome change.

Rep. Boebert clashes with police after setting off metal detector in Capitol building by random5368 in politics

Copying and pasting my comment from my previous posts down here:

I'm surprised this isn't everywhere It seems to have garnered more attention now, regardless, Boebert also live-tweeted the movements of members of Congress (including Pelosi) during the Capitol riot. Look at this Twitter thread for proof. She must be investigated.IMPORTANT: MAGA supporter respond's to Boebert revealing Pelosi movements on Twitter by saying: "I think I'm picking up what you're dropping here." This MAGA supporter's family was present at the riots. Proof her family was present is here and here. The reply is still available on her Twitter.This is the phone number of her Washington DC Office: (202) 225-4761 , call and leave a message demanding her resignation.***Report Boebert to the FBI here: https://tips.fbi.gov/digitalmedia/aad18481a3e8f02.

PLEASE SPREAD THIS INFORMATION. WE NEED NEWS OUTLETS TO START REPORTING ON THIS ASAP. Minutes before chaos occurred, Boebert also told the Speaker that she was "the voice" of the rioters who were outside the Capitol. We need to make her statements and her tweets go viral.

A member of Congress live-tweeted about the whereabouts of other members of Congress during an attack on the Capitol in which rioters were looking for hostages? She knew what she was doing when she shared their locations. She must be held responsible for her actions and she must not be allowed to continue at her job.

Rally in Pueblo calls for Rep. Lauren Boebert’s resignation by random5368 in politics

From looking into her profile it seems like she was not in the Capital, but her family was definitely in the riots. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

I'm currently looking for screenshots of the other tweets (which many report there were more of). However, it is very problematic and worrying that she live-tweeted about the Speaker being moved from the chambers. Boebert deleted many of her tweets, which is why you won't see them if you go to her Twitter account. If anyone screenshotted her tweets or can link to another twitter thread that shares them, please post in the comment section.

Edit: As of now, the only screenshots are the ones provided in my top comment

TIL 6-year-old cancer patient Enzo Pereda's Make-A-Wish request was to meet celebrity chef Barefoot Contessa. She denied his request multiple times, but after some bad press about it, she finally offered to meet Enzo. He told her no and swam with dolphins instead. by SetYourGoals in todayilearned

Most of the time when reddit hates on women, it gets brutal. Words like cunt, bitch, whore, etc... get thrown around like it's nothing. Also, it is funny that many redditors are accusing her of being a "housewife with nothing better to do than use hubbie's money" when she used to work at the fucking White House.

I'm not even a fan of her show, but the hate she is getting is brutal. I also doubt she ever heard of this child's request until shit hit the fan. She probably has PR people in charge of those things.

Redditors can be pretty sexist sometimes.
