Republicans are giving out steak dinners to poor people and liberals are like, best I can do is righteous indignation.

      The person running this account screams op, and the podcast is pretty much a DNC cutout. They're a veteran that is purportedly embedded within the intelligence community.

      One of this person's twitter threads from 2020 claims that they were a Bernie delegate that got completely duped by Russian propaganda and hardcore Berners, and so decided that actual material policy didn't matter as much as vibes. So what else to do when you have this convenient background narrative? Start a Russiagate podcast, and scold people for not holding Biden to account while taking full advantage of loan forgiveness yourself, and leading people astray from focusing on actual material realities like rising inflation.

      Laughable shit

        That thread has her saying that words like "neoliberal" and "corporate dems" are Russian propaganda. Liberals love to say "nobody really thinks that" when you bring it up while threads like this have thousands of likes and retweets. It may not be the majority but it's definitely not some tiny minority.

      THREAD: If Biden forgives $10K in student debt, and you have decided you won't vote for democrats because you want $50K, I have a favor to ask. And I'm being 100% serious. 1/

      Call up a parent of a slaughtered student or a loved one at Robb or in Buffalo, or...

      Toxic tweet thread

      But - of course - the libs don't care...

      What?! "Gill, a disabled veteran, is one of more than 500,000 borrowers who had their student debt forgiven under the Biden administration's" YOU got your $54K PPP and $73K STUDENT LOANS forgiven too? Get the fuck out of here!!!

          April 30th - WaPo White House economics reporter...

          Scoop: White House looking at $10K or more of per-borrower debt forgiveness for earners under $125-150K single/$250-300K couples prior year, per sources

          Overwhelming majority would qualify

          No final decision on amount canceled or means test

          Means testing debt forgiveness would be a total fucking nightmare and idiotic beyond belief. So - I think Biden's gonna do it for $10K or even less.
