β€œThis has NOTHING to do with the SHUTDOWN. The law REQUIRES and the funds are available to continue SNAP right now without any interruption.

So that is a DECISION the president is making on his own to ALLOW people to go HUNGRY." - Senator Peter Welch on SNAP Cuts

A mother of 8 was deported within 24 hours of reporting sexual harassment by an ICE contracto

She was following the rules & going through the process to get her green card

Someone working on behalf of ICE abused her.

She spoke out and was kicked out of the country.

It’s retaliation & it’s wrong

The Constitution Strikes Back in Chicago In a Chicago courtroom, Judge Sara Ellis reminded federal power who it answers to: the Constitution.

Trump’s Border Patrol thought they could trample Chicago. Judge Sara Ellis proved them wrong. She dragged their commander into court & made the Constitution bite back. This is what democracy looks like when it fights & wins. Read, post, & share it everywhere:

Post from WH about Chicago "in chaos," showing scene from another state.

A terrific AFP fact check uses reverse image searches to expose how a White House video took scenes from Florida, Texas, South Carolina and Nebraska and lied that they showed "Chicago is in chaos."

Ain't Got No Home/Old Man Trump (with lyrics, Woody Guthrie-Cover by 101)
YouTube video by Ansnuians 101 Ain't Got No Home/Old Man Trump (with lyrics, Woody Guthrie-Cover by 101)

The great Woody Guthrie wrote this song about Trump’s dad when he lived in the Trump’s Beach Haven houses in Brooklyn in 1954. The evil and ugliness of that family goes way back.

These Bay Area restaurants are offering free meals for SNAP recipients during the shutdown A growing wave of Bay Area restaurants will provide free meals to people on federal food assistance when SNAP benefits run out Nov. 1.

Please Note: As of now, the majority of SF Bay Area restaurants that plan to offer free or reduced-priced meals to families who will lose #SNAP benefits are owned by ethnic minorities. There are TONS of eateries across the SFBA: are white owners pitching in, too?🧐 www.sfchronicle.com/food/restaur...
