Can we just take a minute and acknowledge that our POTUS is right OUT IN THE OPEN lobbying Congressional members to vote against releasing the Epstein files?! Like... what the fuck else does anyone even need to know?

Way too many people out there thinking this will all change at the "next election" baby we are not paying enough attention

If sandwich shops don’t start offering a sandwich named “the acquittal” then what are we even doing

Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

This guy got emotional? This same guy? Naaaww

The average US taxpayer spends $36 a year on SNAP

You know what they spend on corporate subsidies? $670

Poor and disabled people who need food are not the problem

If you’re angry about “your money” feeding people but not angry it’s giving tax cuts to the wealthy?

You’re doing their dirty work.

They've become masters at generating a fictional boogeyman to keep your attention off the actual villains, which has always been and remains the super wealthy elite.

Seems more likely every day that the US government has rather simply and without much resistance permanently hamstrung, if not eliminated, an entire branch of government - the last one with any real semblance of representation - and that Congress may just never come back.
Welcome to Gilead.

The great dividers want you to think the problems in society are caused by migrants and refugees.

They’re wrong.

The problems in society are caused by an unjust economic system that protects the interests of the super-rich.

An estimated 15.7 million workers use SNAP. It’s a lifeline for those in low-wage jobs.

Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker.

Don’t be angry at workers for using food stamps.

Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.

9 months back in power, and every branch of government now merged into one corrupt man. The House, the Senate, the Supreme Court, all nothing but autopens for a crook who’s doubled his fortune while Americans starve.

...

You should care that kids, seniors & disabled people can eat. But even if you don’t, grocers have been swallowing tariff costs for months. SNAP keeps them afloat with billions in steady spending. Cut it and prices spike while we all fight for what’s left on the shelves.

Marc Lobliner post on X: "Why the hell are we giving food stamps to 40 million people? Does anyone work anymore?"

SNAP isn't about "people who don't work." It's about people who don't get paid enough to live.

Of the 40 or so million people who rely on food stamps:

* Two-thirds are children, seniors, or disabled

* Most working-age adults who receive SNAP are employed—but in jobs that pay poverty wages

SNAP is probably the most effective federal dollar we spend in terms of long term domestic economic outcomes.

that isn’t why you should support it; you should support it because it is a moral imperative to feed the hungry.

but it’s why even a growth-oriented ghoul shouldn’t oppose it.

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

With ICE acting like Gestapo psychopaths, good time to remind folks that being undocumented is a misdemeanor, and staying past your visa is only a civil matter.

Neither requires you to football tackle, zip tie, and beat and mace folks, or shoot tear gas and pepper spray at people. These are gross

Cripes dating was already hard enough before people started outsourcing their emotions and thoughts to a water-wasting bot

Currently sitting on the train and truly amazing how few people have yet discovered this cutting edge headphones invention you speak of

Wes Streeting: “Reform is a Party that thinks that our flag only belongs to some of us who look like me, not all of us who built this country. The people who died for our freedom & democracy weren’t just my grandfather, who look like me & worship the same god as me”

Time to stop shopping at businesses that allow federal agents to kidnap your neighbors. Drop Home Depot. Go to Ace and Lowe's instead.

Will we still have fair elections for long? And even if we do, will our elected reps in Congress actually even function?
Don't want to be Debbie downer, I want to fight, but it's not looking good and it's terrifying.

(Also big fan of yours Jess, thanks for all that you do!!)

We are full on here again

I dunno man. Economic flailing hasn't been sufficient to change Russia or numerous other countries suffering under a plutocratic dictatorship.
That's what scares me most.

Every country has a powerful right wing that argue “if you tax the wealthy, they’ll leave”

We need to start calling their bluff.

We need to make it so the ultra wealthy either contribute enough to be a positive part of society, or be globally shunned and unable to extract further funds from us.

What Lies Beneath

Older film buy with a most satisfying story arc

These are the people that the maggots believed to be an "inefficient waste" of resources -
- but not the shitbag multi-millionaires using taxpayer money to buy private jets and gilded ballrooms

I hate it here

Doesn't seem to have occurred to everyone yet that the US Congress may never reconvene.

This this this this 💯🎯

Also it was never immigrants taking your resources it's CORPORATE GREED

Costs for the avg family up $4900 this year SO FAR and just from tariffs. That's not even additional healthcare, food, other costs. He's still got plenty of time to make it worse too.

An extra potent f*ck you to the people I know personally who voted for him "fOr THe eCoNOmy."
