If ICE agents begins harassing voters on the way to vote on Tuesday, we need local prosecutors to charge the ICE officers with state law crimes. We need to send a message for 2026 that they will be swiftly arrested.

deranged that we even need to think this way, but we need some sort of system where anyone who feels afraid to go to the polls can request a buddy to go with them

They're really having fun with it on tiktok.

This is brilliant

I have listened to so many duets with this song in the past few days. It is perfect and absolutely states where we're at right now.

I'm down for it.

A 2020 study found that Amazon—which shares owner Jeff Bezos with The Washington Post—is one of the largest employers of people on SNAP.

The study:

The USDA is the fail safe for SNAP.

They have a contingency fund to ensure it’s covered in the event of a shutdown.

They’re refusing.

Grocery stores stepped up to try and help by offering discounts to any SNAP recipients and the USDA told them they had to stop.

Starvation as a policy choice.

A digital poster in the style of a World War II propaganda piece. Isolaed on a yellow background, a normal, squarish, 20-something guy with glasses is sitting working on a laptop. A ghostly figure of Hitler has his arm around the guy and is grinning and shaking a fist triumphantly looking at the laptop screen. On the lid of the laptop where an apple might otherwise be is an openAI logo, bright green, and dripping green ooze down the lid. Text on the poster, in combinations of sans-serif type and brush script reads: Using Generative AI? You’re prompting with Hitler! GenAI is a Fascist Project! Try using your brain instead Don’t surrender your creativity to the tech billionaire’s control

Amazon employees are the second highest recipient of SNAP benefits, the first being Walmart.

Also as of my last check, 35% of all military families (1-2 actively serving adult servicemembers who are married or domestic partners + any dependents) rely on SNAP benefits, which is up 10% in the last 10 years.

SNAP benefits feed essential needs while still leaving many hungry for more Journalist and author Adam Chandler explains what so much of the conversation about them gets wrong.

“70% of wage-earning adults who rely on government programs like SNAP and Medicaid work full-time, many at hugely profitable companies like Walmart and McDonald’s whose low wages are effectively subsidized by tax dollars without any of the blame or paternalistic lectures.”

In 2023:
-39% of SNAP users were Americans under the age of 18
-19% of SNAP users were 60 or older

As SNAP hangs in the balance for nearly 42 million people, misinformation is rampant. Myths of laziness and fraud persist when we should be talking about too low wages for workers, income inequality, and our threadbare social safety net.

In this guest post, Adam Chandler sorts fact from fiction:

It really makes me want to throttle these people who have zero idea what it's like when they recommend I eat in-season foods. Like, tomatoes are $4+ per lb

Add to that the cheap stuff is "poors" buy where lobbied by the companies that them to be cheap. But, naw, random Karen who has no fucking idea what it's like to be poor, go on about how I should buy the expensive seasonal produce.

NGL, Maddow is the only reason I ever feel like I'm missing watching TV. Lawrence is a second.

Now I can't I see it!

When they say "move towards the center" they mean "go further right"

The Democrat party is already on the right. The reason why "centrists" in America are seen as secret right wingers is because the center is firmly in the right.

Wouldn't be that way if we had an actual left wing.

Hi Matt- In a story published today by ProPublica about NC Chief Justice Paul Newby, there's a quote from an email you sent to them in response to a request for comment. It quotes you as saying “I’m sure you’re aware of our connections with the Trump Administration and I’m sure they would be interested in this matter. I would strongly suggest dropping this story.” What are your connections to the Trump administration? Why do you think they would be interested in this story? And what do you believe they would do about it if they became aware? Thank you, -- Marisa Kabas Independent journalist The Handbasket

I just sent this email to Matt Mercer, NC GOP Comms Director:

Matt Mercer: Feed ProPublica to the USAID wood chipper
