Biden says he’ll meet with McCarthy on Tuesday to talk debt ceiling
President Biden told reporters that he is meeting with Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) on Tuesday to resume talks about the debt limit and avoiding a default.


They didn't produce a budget. What they did was produce a ransom note. That's what the 'default on America act' is. And effectively, what they're saying to the people is either you accept these dramatic cuts or accept a catastrophic default. - Speaker Hakeem Jeffries

Donald Trump's tax cuts for the obscenely wealthy are responsible for a QUARTER OF OUR NATION'S ENTIRE DEBT and Republicans want to cut YOUR social security to pay for it, and that's what this debt ceiling bullsh*t is all about. f-ing unacceptable. - Jeff Tiedrich



It Is Terrifying Watching DeSantis Erase History Taught In Public Schools
Eliminating references in some Florida social-studies textbooks about social justice and the death of George Floyd has teachers concerned the state is doing a disservice to students, who — in learning about such issues — can understand history in real-time lessons that they can relate to.

Anderson Cooper Blasted for ‘Gaslighting’ Viewers in Defense of CNN Trump Town Hall

Anderson Cooper Blasted for ‘Gaslighting’ Viewers in Defense of CNN Trump Town Hall
...But just like the event itself, Cooper provoked far more criticism than agreement. Cooper, one critic said, acted like “a gaslighting scold.” And the event, another said, is “a desperate ploy for ratings by a network in crisis.” Oops.

I did not imagine CNN would double down by condescendingly lecturing its audience that actually the Trump town hall was very important and good, and you just don't *understand* because you're not on the TV. - Max Burns tweet

NO CAKE FOR YOU!
Two customers at an Orlando location of the grocery chain Publix wanted a cake for an event they were holding late last month celebrating and supporting the transgender community...But the bakery worker taking the order hesitated. "After a loooooong waiting period a manager comes up & looks me - a Trans Non-binary person dead in the eyes and says, 'yeah, we can't write that we aren't allowed to take stance either ways on this issue,'"...
