I find it unsurprising they can't understand the dems didn't continue a policy that both was popular and helped keep children out of poverty while still arguing they're good

The extra $300 per month would be a better argument if they tried to keep it going instead of letting it lapse...
They used to run on being left then only doing extremely watered down policies.
My point is that dems are left wing because they try and push the country left.
In 2024 they ran on more war, higher funding to the military, and implementing gop immigration policy. Again after seeing how popular left wing policies were in the polls.
But yeah they're totally working hard to push the country left
When did I say it was only a year?
Never vote dems" its almost like you want a right wing government
Even with dems the usa has a right wing government.
They ban it because it says substack in the footer, so they treat it as a blog.
Yes but our admins and mods trusted source says it's good so it stays 😭
Dropsite news is banned but problems with radio free Asia or voice of America...
They're still doing rogue squadron??? I thought they'd canceled it
The significant backsliding on child poverty that occurred after Congress allowed the Child Tax Credit expansion to expire underscores the fact that the number of children living in poverty is a policy choice. Recently there have been encouraging signs of bipartisan interest in a modest expansion. On January 31, 2024, in a strong bipartisan vote, the House passed a tax bill that included a Child Tax Credit expansion that, while far smaller than the Rescue Plan expansion, would help about 16 million children and lift a half million or more children above the poverty line in 2025.[1] Unfortunately, the legislation has been stuck in the Senate.
It ended under Biden. They didn't continue under the dems watch.
Again the issue is the dems keep ignoring easy wins to keep their donors happy
It ended under Biden along with most of the benefit increases we got because of covid. It was bad enough to have a massive spike in child poverty after decreasing.
Lets be realistic instead of delusional so things in the real world can actually get better.
Except that's not at all the case

Especially if it's like the student loan shit and can't try implementing after spending an ungodly amount of time trying to setup means testing then get to blame gop for it being stopped. Bonus when just dropping it after because people wanted you to keep trying.
