@POTUS found $40B to bailout #Argentina’s president, but can’t find $5B to keep food on American tables. Next week, #SNAP cuts will hit 1 in 8 Americans; not because we’re broke, but because this administration is choosing not to use available contingency funds. #AmericaFirst?

Inside the Trump family’s global crypto cash machine The U.S. president’s family raked in more than $800 million from sales of crypto assets in the first half of 2025 alone, a Reuters examination found, on top of potentially billions more in unrealized “on paper” gains. Much of that cash came from foreign sources as Donald Trump's sons touted their business on an international investor roadshow.

Trump Org’s income in the first half of 2024 was $51 million. In the first half of 2025 it rose to $864 million.
A massive percentage came from foreigners. It should be the biggest scandal in the history of American politics.

Trump is cutting off food assistance for nearly 900,000 Arizonans as we head into the month of Thanksgiving. I’m suing to protect the seniors, veterans, working families and their children all across Arizona who rely on SNAP to feed themselves.

There's a Right To Record ICE Raids--and There's No Blanket Immunity for Raiders Notwithstanding pronouncements from leading officials of the Trump administration, the consensus of federal courts is that the Constitution protects the right to record immigration raids, and federal ...

New from me at Cato: The Trump administration lately has falsely asserted that ICE / CBP agents are immune from state law no matter what they do, and also that citizens have no right to videorecord, photograph or identify the agents. There's a pattern that links these two stories! /1

Families are fighting to afford groceries and gas. Inflation’s up, energy costs are through the roof. Donald Trump’s biggest concern? Knocking down the White House’s historic east wing to build a ballroom for himself.

SNAP food benefits have never stopped during a government shutdown. The only difference this time is the admin's refusal to use USDA contingency funds that kept the program running in every past shutdown.

Our new health insurance premium feels more like a shakedown‼️

Thank you, @politicsgirl.bsky.social , for sharing your story. You’re right—there are millions like you.

Our new premium is over $3K/month for a family of three. Could we scrape it together? Maybe. Should we have to? No.

Johnson: Snap benefits is a unique situation. I got a summary of the legal analysis…the contingency funds are not legally available to cover the benefits right now

TOMORROW: DC police officer Daniel Hodges, a hero of the Jan 6 response at the Capitol, will testify at a Senate subcommittee hearing on "Politically Violent Attacks: A Threat to Our Constitutional Order"

Invited witness of Sen. Peter Welch (D-VT)

When people tell me, "Things will never be the same again!," I remind them...that nothing is ever the same again. Both in good times...and bad. Our job is to turn it around...no matter how many years that may take...and make Goddamn sure things are NEVER the same again. We'll make it better.

That barista who makes your coffee just right.

The cook at your favorite diner.

Your kind neighbor who is on deployment.

They all have jobs. They all need SNAP to make ends meet.

When Trump & the GOP deride those who need some help, understand who they are talking about.

It’s people like you.

Illinois’ benefits website warns that the Trump administration is to blame if SNAP benefits go away

Crimes against humanity.

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.

Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.

The people who need help are not the problem.

It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

Ahem

Accountability is coming to ICE

So Argentina gets a $40 billion bailout from our tax dollars but devastated small towns here at home — nothing.

To be clear: this is complete bullshit.

The 12th amendment states that anyone who is ineligible to run for POTUS is also ineligible to run for VP.

Tim Walz: "People are gonna be lined up out here to get food, and we're talking about a damn ballroom. Don't lose the plot."

Walz: "They are paying contractors to pay down the East Wing but they're not putting money into the food bank. So if there's a sense of frustration in America, it's very real ... when the White House press secretary said their top priority is the ballroom, we could not disagree more."
