Friendly Civics Lesson for Cardi B

I’m not gonna argue with Cardi B on her not voting, but her comments motivated me to give a Civics 099 lesson (shout out to @1ericasavage). In under 10 minutes, break down how the co-equal judicial (i.e. #SCOTUS), legislative (Congress), and executive (White House) branches of government impact how we solve (or don’t) our country’s problems. I also tackle how over $10 TRILLION of government expenditures are spent at the federal, state, and local levels. The bottom line is what I always say…if you’re gonna be mad, know who to be mad at. If you wanna solve ish…know who the decision makers are. Also, not voting doesn’t punish politicians… it rewards them with having one less person standing in the way of their election. #ReecieColbertShow #Civicslesson #governmentspending #themoreyouknow
