This is Tennessee

The same Tennessee that expelled two black lawmakers from the house for protesting gun violence last year

The same Tennessee where it is safe to march on the capitol with a Nazi flag held high.

Video of brave cameraman confronting large group of Nazis marching with masks on… Literally nominating him for time person of the year even though this should be landscape mode

“Joe Biden just cancelled $1.2 billion in student debt for those on the REPAYE / SAVE plan

“…here’s how that’s bad for Biden”

Reading comments online you’d think Biden woke up and kicked a baby into a wood chipper

“My debt wasn’t forgiven so it’s a broken promise!! and they got my latte order wrong so I’m not voting REEEEEEE!”

I paid mine off. I’m glad for those who have theirs forgiven

And I’m voting for Biden for the greater good.

@flexghost I payed my student debt off. It took a very long time. I’m fine with Biden paying off student debt and I’m happy for those that had their debt relieved.
The government needs to get out of the student loan business and just make community college free, and it seriously needs to be free.

Quite a quote from Eric Swalwell on the parade of GOP members attending #TrumpTrial this morning:

“I don’t think that anything could animate the phrase ‘do-nothing Congress’ more than missing votes and canceling hearings to go up and be a spectator at your cult leader’s trial.”

@GottaLaff @stevebenen investigate house GOP members who traveled to NYC for their morons trial. Where did the funds come from to travel to the NYC? Were they collecting per diem? Lodging, etc. doubt very much this was out of pocket travel.

@GottaLaff 1. Didn’t know we were buying this from Russia.
2. Why the hell would Russia sell this to us!?
3. Why didn’t we stopped buying from them long ago?

this is my first pup, Jäger. This is him the year we retired him from hunting, he was 8 yrs old. He passed away of cancer in his 12th year. He had a wonderful life for a hunting dog, lived amongst his humans in the house, ate salmon, chicken, and any game we hunted. Love by all, missed by all. Rest easy boy…
