Reddit post from Inside-Specialist-55 in r/povertyfinance: "I have always went here when things were bad. This year our family could not afford anything nice for christmas dinner so we turned to a local church food bank. I have never seen the line this long at this food bank, This is 4x the size of every previous year. We have only been to this one 4 times since 2017 but this year the line wraps around the building a second time to the left behind those rows of cars. Everyone is freezing and an older lady in line had to be taken inside because she looked like she was about to pass out from being too cold and shivering. If this is a sign that America isnt doing well IDK what is. I am in a small town in Kentucky with a population of less than 4,800 people. Literally 10% or more of the county residents are here. This is insane."

73% of ICE detainees have no criminal convictions, according to govt data.

Don’t fall for Trump’s lies about targeting the “worst of the worst.”

As ICE terrorizes cities to fill up detention centers, remember that some of Trump's major donors are private prison corporations.

How to buy yourself a needy malignant narcissist? Just offer him a phony, made up "Peace Prize" & he's all your's!!!
No need for a formal ceremony as he'll snatch from the box & put it on all by himself. Both laughably pathetic AND pathetically laughable. 🤡 🫣

Mamdani: Oftentimes when we win elections, we tell people to go home and just trust us. But the message really has to be that we want you to come along with us… That’s something we’ve been looking to share with New Yorkers: We want to not only win with New Yorkers, but also govern with New Yorkers.

Minneapolis police chief warns officers: Stop unlawful force by ICE or lose your job Chief Brian O’Hara says he’ll fire city police officers if they don’t intervene when immigration agents use unlawful force.

Police Chief Brian O’Hara has delivered a blunt message to his department: If an officer witnesses ICE agents using illegal force and fails to step in, they will be fired. 👏 👏 👏

There are so many holes in DHS’s story it’s nuts. They say this woman was driving her boyfriend’s car, who they claim is undocumented.

ICE pulls her over, see she’s alone, know they are looking for a man, and still handcuff her while she screams “I am a US citizen,”.

Why is ICE harassing women?

If Virginia Democrats follow through with a new 10-1 congressional map and a couple of other Dem states make small changes, Trump's gambit to rig the 2026 maps will be remembered as an epic blunder.

The US government is summarily executing people on a weekly basis without telling the American people any of their names or presenting any proof of their guilt, for alleged crimes that do not carry the death penalty in the US.

Donald Trump just removed Martin Luther King Jr. Day and Juneteenth from the list of free entry days at national parks.

They are being replaced with Trump’s birthday.

In a surprising twist, the U.S. Supreme Court’s recent decision to let Texas use its mid-decade gerrymander for the 2026 midterm elections may end up strengthening California’s defense of its voter-approved map. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

this shit is just beyond parody, man

BERMAN: Would it be legal for police in Arkansas to kill suspected drug dealers on a boat in a lake?

TOM COTTON: The premise of your question is not well-founded


BERMAN: The answer is no. It would not be legal to kill them.

“What have I done!” 🤡

The Golden Age.

BREAKING on MS NOW:
 
Brian Cole Jr., the suspect accused of being the Jan. 6 pipe bomber, confessed to agents that he planted the bombs and has indicated he supported President Trump, according to two people familiar with his interview.

Congress used to have the power of the purse and the power to declare war.

The fact that a second strike like that in an armed conflict is definitely a war crime should not completely negate the fact that *there is no war* and ALL the strikes are cold-blooded murder. The whole chain of command are murderers.

NEW: GRAND JURY REFUSES TO RE-INDICT LETITIA JAMES per @nicollewallace.bsky.social on Deadline White House. HAHAHAHA

VA must redistrict after the Supreme Court’s decision in the Texas case. The last excuse not to is gone.

UPDATE: Trump Jr.-backed startup receives $620 million Pentagon loan In October, Popular Information reported that the Pentagon awarded a contract to Unusual Machines, an obscure drone comp

A startup backed by Donald Trump Jr.'s venture capital firm just got a $620M loan from the DoD, months after the Pentagon gave a major drone contract to ANOTHER Trump Jr.-backed company.

This is what kleptocracy looks like. https://popular.info/p/update-trump-jr-backed-startup-receives

"ICE is arresting the worst of the worst."

Everything this administration tells us is a lie.

Himes: "What I saw in that room was one of the most troubling things I've seen in my time in public service ... any American who sees the video that I saw will see the US military attacking shipwrecked sailors."

Mark Warner: "I hope it would remind folks that J6 was an ugly, awful day, and this administration and president basically pardoned all the perpetrators. It's that kind of picking and choosing of facts from this crowd that makes me a little bit crazy."

Kennedy’s Methodical 2-Decade Quest to Dismantle Vaccine Policy

rfk jr wants to kill your kids, it’s really that simple.

Reminder about Jan 6:

it really happened
It was a horror
140+ police were injured
A range of violent weapons were used by attackers
Chants to hang Mike Pence were heard
There was a gallows and guns
Pipe bombs diverted police as mob approached

A corrupt president pardons a corrupt member of Congress for corrupt reasons. With multiple guilty pleas establishing a bribery-laundering scheme, Hakeem Jeffries still called the case “thin” and sought cover in a bribery-plagued Supreme Court.

A lesson in squandering potential inroads with voters.
