No reparations for Black Americans. No student loan forgiveness. No UBI for average Americans. But reparations, treason forgiveness, and UBI for the Jan 6th insurrectionists & criminals who attacked Congress. Got it, got it, got it.

Every day of Trump 2.0 I think “it can’t get more outrageous than this,” and I am wrong. This slush fund thing is so fucking rancid and unacceptable and I hate the feeling and reality that no politician is going to stop it, or call in Batman or something. This is not a country.
