You’ve probably heard but I have been federally indicted by Trump’s DOJ.

1 in 8 Americans rely on SNAP, but the USDA says benefits won't go out in November and that Senate Democrats are to blame.

To frame this as a political fight between Democrats and Republicans only further dehumanizes Americans dealing with food insecurity.

If the current administration ever ends, many people in (and around) it will need to be prosecuted. From influence peddling to flat-out murder, their crimes seem to accumulate each and every day.

The states say suspending SNAP "is both contrary to law and arbitrary and capricious under the Administrative Procedure Act," and "irreparably harming their states."

"A harm that increases every day SNAP benefits are delayed."

Opinion | Josh Hawley: We Cannot Let 42 Million Americans Go Hungry Congress must prevent Americans from losing food assistance.

In @nytopinion.nytimes.com

“Saturday will be another grim milestone. That is the day about 42 million Americans will lose federal food assistance,” writes Senator Josh Hawley. “Congress must not let that happen.”

The U.S. Constitution explicitly prohibits a third presidential term. We should be more concerned that this is openly being debated right now.

Some on TikTok have suggested (unconfirmed)that he intends to build a new bunker under the ballroom.

Sec. Noem is refusing to respond to my concerns about the Admin’s plan to open an ICE facility in Appleton.

Trump commuting Santos is not just a curiosity. It’s a feature of corruption… it’s a message… if you like me you can get away with anything. If we accept this as ok our kids will never forgive us
