This is an infuriating morning read from @louise_seamster @StrikeDebt, @rooseveltinst, @Braxtonbrew96 @EleniSchirmer, and #ThomasGokey, They show the claims at the heart of the Supreme Court case poised to stop debt relief are false.

According to their own internal documents, Missouri’s loan servicer MOHELA will actully make more *after* debt cancellation.

The entire premise of the lawsuit is a lie. In August 2022, President B...
The case didn’t follow standard procedure, meaning the Supreme Court, in their supreme wisdom, didn’t have the basic facts of the case verified.

Facts are stubborn things, and the facts of this case show the opposite of what’s the conservative states are claiming. The lawsuit did not go thro...
.@StrikeDebt, @rooseveltinst, @Braxtonbrew96 @EleniSchirmer, #ThomasGokey, and @louise_seamster had to make a Freedom of Information claim to get these facts that haven’t been presented to the court (who are supposed to be the adults in the room). This means that the Republi...

It’s unclear how I’ll remain on this increasingly unpleasant platform (or how long it will exist). But in anticipation of taking a Twitter break (or Twitter breaking) soon, I’m going to do a year-end thread early because I wrote and published a bunch of stuff.
For @CNNOpinion, I used Dr. King’s Letter from Birmingham Jail to talk about the obstructionist senators Manchin and Sinema, who, like the white moderates Dr. King warned us about, showed they “valued order over justice” by blocking voting rights reform. cnn.com/2022/01/15/opi…
