It's important for us to support our local food banks because Republicans would rather spend our tax money to murder people on boats.

People who say Republican politicians care only about money are wrong. Republicans also are deeply committed to covering up the rape of children. #ReleasetheEpsteinFiles

More than 47 million Americans β€” including one in five children β€” don’t have reliable, affordable access to nutritious food. And as the cost of living skyrockets, more families are depending on SNAP benefits, or food stamps, to put food on the table.

Trump pardons Ross Ulbricht, founder of Silk Road drug marketplace Ulbricht, sentenced to life in prison in 2015, given β€˜full and unconditional’ pardon by president

1. Trump doesn't care about drug trafficking. If he did, he wouldn't have pardoned Ross Ulbricht, founder of the illegal online drug marketplace known as the Silk Road.

I know it's hard, but do not turn away from this regime's cruelty and violence. Remember it. Document it. Defend against it when you can. Let it influence your voting. And know that this will be needed in defying them now and holding them accountable as soon as we can.

Food insecurity among military families unacceptable, advocates say An estimated 325,000 military families are struggling with having enough food each week.

So service members don't do "real work"?

"According to a 2023 study by Rand researchers, nearly 26% of active-duty service members are considered food insecure, and about 15% rely on food stamps or food banks to help support their families."

"The goal of these programs is to move families into real work," the Republicans say during the Republican shutdown, as the Republican-run House enters its sixth week of getting paid for not working and the Republican president blows millions on his god-awful Epstein Ballroom.

In Late, Obscure Notice, DHS Turbocharges Trump’s Voter Purge Database, Evading Privacy Protections Read more here.

🚨BREAKING: The Department of Homeland Security quietly formalized sweeping changes to a federal immigration database, turning it into a national β€œvoter verification” tool that appears to sidestep federal privacy protections and will make it easier to remove large numbers of voters from the rolls.

A sentencing memo that linked Toronto to J6 and noted Trump shared Obama’s address vanished and was replaced with a watered-down version. A judge is now demanding answers. Erasing the truth isn’t justice. It’s authoritarianism 101: rewrite the record, protect the leader, and intimidate prosecutors.

Mike Johnson makes it clear that he sees poor people not as unfortunate Americans who need to eat but simply as leverage in his political fight with Democrats.
Mike Johnson is the fakest fake Christian in America.

Here’s a headline you won’t see in Tennessee today: β€œSenators @MarshaBlackburn & @SenatorHagerty vote to continue tariffs on Canada”

Tennessee is feeling the pain. 4 Republicans voted with Dems to stop them. Not Bill & Marsha.

And Marsha wants to be governor?

The Senate voted 50–46 tonight to block Trump’s tariffs on Canada, and yesterday it voted to block his tariffs on Brazil. Now we need the house to vote. Where’s the House? Is Johnson still guarding the Epstein files?

Today, South Korea presented Donald Trump with a golden crown. Did they not hear about the millions of Americans who marched against him in the #NoKings rallies? Maybe they are deviously trolling him. It is in Donald's favorite color.

The 3% excise tax on home sales over $1 million will go to pay for affordable housing & will be adjusted annually for inflation

73% of voters approved taxing the rich in 2023

Walmart makes BILLIONS on SNAP spending while being one of the top employers of SNAP benefit participants.

So a mega corporation doesn’t pay employees enough to eat, saving BILLIONS only to go on to make BILLIONS when those employees spend tax payer funded SNAP benefits at Walmart.

Cool cool.
