The Younger Twin

At this point I think it’s fair to say that most of the criticisms being lobbed at Mamdani are not out of genuine anger or surprise at any new revelations about him but are rather a transparently bad faith smear campaign to punish him for being a successful politician while Muslim

Not in this case, nope. I'm even seeing that Young Kim, my republican rep, is looking like she has a chance of losing in 2026. There will be other districts with great new dem opposition that have a strong chance, as well. Of course, only time will tell.

They've given up, honestly. They know they can't win this.

It’s been really disheartening to see the things people say about those who use SNAP. Many seem to have little understanding of why the program exists in the first place.

I'm not making fun of the guy bcuz that isn't my style, but the "broken Roomba" just hit as so accurate for what happens in this clip

Aaron Rupar (@aaronrupar) Trump: "I said, 'put it all into one bill and if we get it done, we're done for four years.' We don't need anything more from Congress."

Welp, I dunno about you, but this bashes me want to dig my heels in and FIGHT, muthafuckah! #congress

That's what I've said since I saw that bruising. I had IVs administered via the back of my hand when I was dehydrated during childbirth and it left me with that bruising.

Back pain doesn't cause you to wander aimlessly in the Japanese Palace; it doesn't cause you to ramble on endlessly with extreme lack of coherence; it doesn't make you hear a clear & concise question and answer it with something that isn't relatable one bit. I get where you're coming from but...

welcome to America, where the idea that kids should have food gets you labeled some kind of communist

them down & trying to actually HELP ppl is what was happening. But, noooo, y'all just run around slamming the guy (I'm not even his biggest fan, btw) bcuz you have zero clue of the background work being done. If you need help understanding, please feel free to reach out to me. Take care

Have you ever worked with helping people on the streets find permanent housing? Newsom & the team that did that didn't just pick an encampment & "destroy" it. The team was there for weeks ahead of that working with the folks living there. The health issue that exist in those are terrible. Breaking

We have to VOTE. Remember, the vast majority of the US voters do not support what is happening. But ppl also tend to not vote, ESP in midterms. We've GOT TO CHANGE that.

This is not only horrifying but so sad. We have too much conflict in this world to have the fking UNITED STATES be in such turmoil due to 1 idiot in the Oval Office turning us into a completely ineffective ally.

💪Brian Williams-NBC air the Meidas Touch ad that murdoch refused to show🇺🇸🙏

There's a fucking warning for this one. Do not watch if you are offended by the word "fuck" or any version of it such as "fucked" & "fucking" 🤪

I'm just gonna BE SO EXCITED ABOUT THIS for just a minute 😄

Trump Canceled 94 Million Pounds of Food Aid. Here’s What Never Arrived. ProPublica obtained records from the Department of Agriculture that detail the millions of pounds of food, down to the number of eggs, that never reached food banks because of the administration’s cut...

Wow. Just... OMG

It’s never ok for law enforcement to treat ppl as they’ve been treating immigrants & citizens. Nothing to do w/ their status or the law. The law is just the floor ICE has sunk below. It is an ethics Q why outsized groups of masked men intimidate ppl & violate property/privacy/bodies/constitution.

These puppos get such great help pretty much immediately thanks to WeRateDogs, so don't you stress about that.

Please reach out to the company that manufactures your insulin (mine is Lilly, for example) & tell them you need help. They have programs for ppl, ok? Be well.

We've had the a Affordable Care Act for 25 years. 15 years of not being denied coverage for preexisting conditions. 15 years of no lifetime caps on coverage. 15 years of free cancer screenings, STI tests, PrEP, and birth control. *And in that 15 years, Republicans have not offered a single alternative Healthcare plan.* They've only tried to take your Healthcare away 70+ times.

Yyyuuuppp!

“According to a 2019 USDA report, every dollar in new SNAP benefits increases GDP by $1.50 in a weak economy.”

“SNAP benefits are one of the fastest, most effective forms of economic stimulus because they get money into the economy quickly during a recession.”

~Center for Budget and Policy

Please please pass this along so ppl who need help can find it as easily as possible. $5 donations go A LOT further by giving to food banks than giving food. I'm a Feeding America Hunger Council member, so please contact me if you need help, too 😊

YouTube video by Reagan Library President Reagan's Radio Address on Free and Fair Trade on April 25, 1987

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube.

Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X).

*1981 Sherrilyn horrified by 2025 Sherrilyn saying “let’s post Reagan’s speech.”

This has been studied before, correct? I've known this for decades, somehow. As a T1d for 45 years, I've learned the need to be "obsessed" about my dental hygiene to protect my heart and my brain. Maybe I just have a really good dentist 🤷🏼‍♀️

I hope everyone has an opportunity to change your day like the universe gave me this morning. It wasn't much, just an appt that was set for a really shitty time this evening being moved to the middle of the day, but that's enough to be able to say "thank you" to the force that made that happen 💫

The death penalty needs to be completely destroyed in every country.

My daughter gasped while on the phone with me last night driving home from work (she lives in Brentwood)- some guy just decided to use the opposing lanes of traffic to get around everyone to make it to his left turn. Can't say I hadn't seen it before on a # of occasions myself.
