Grocers Scrap Discounts for SNAP Recipients After Threats From Trump Administration Democrats quickly decried the USDA’s decision, calling it a “cruel” tactic to preserve Republicans’ political leverage at the expense of those needing food assistance.

THe only possible point is cruelty
Is this what YOU voted for??

Congressman Joseph Neguse serving as the U.S. representative for Colorado's 2nd district put the Government Shutdown into perfect perspective. His statement here should resonate with American's from all walks of life.

The way he rubs his inhumanity in Americans” face never ceases to stun me.

He’s illegally refusing to pay food stamp benefits…

…while he throws a ridiculously over the top Gatsby party for his right wing millionaire and corporate friends.

Never in the history of the US has any president openly and repeatedly called for the investigation, arrest & prosecution of his political opponents. While many continue to shrug these things off and normalize them, I will never stop pointing out that this is what autocrats do.

Breaking on MSNBC:

Two federal prosecutors have been placed on leave at the direction of the White House after filing a sentencing memo seeking 27 months in prison for a pardoned Jan. 6 rioter who brought illegal guns and ammunition to President Obama's house in 2023.

Welch: "This 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."

The President of the United States thinks a test for dementia is an IQ test, and none of his sycophants will tell him he’s wrong.

Let that sink in.

Anyone who would so nonchalantly tear down a huge chunk of the White House would sell ANY and all top secret information to any foreign power.

A lot of people discussing sports gambling and how we can't put the genie back in the bottle.

Absolutely true.

And that's how we have allowed school shootings to become normalized.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 84th day out of the last 96.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

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."

This video from Portland is a metaphor for what is going on in America. ICE trying so hard to get Americans to cross a line and if they don't, dragging them across the line and violently attacking.

Nice to see that elite Mavs defense finally coming together. Got a real shot after dumping that no-D anchor they had to put up with for over 6 years. Defense wins championships, if you haven't heard.

Every day, DJT appears to try & see how much farther he he can go to screw over this country & its people.

Today he's having the DOJ cut him a $230,000,000 check.

The corruption is so overwhelmingly overt, it's absurd.

I'm not sure anything will slow or stop this. Not even Epstein videos.

The first time the Confederate flag ever paraded through the US Capitol was on January 6, 2021.

The first time the White House was damaged in over 200 years since the US rebuilt in the 1820s after the British burned it in the war of 1812 was mid October, 2025.

ICE is stockpiling arms, including chemical weapons, guided missile warheads and explosive components. The spending dwarfs anything we've ever seen in the agency - a 700% increase.

The President is building an army to attack his own country.

So, where's all those people who were up in arms a few years back when certain statues were being taken down &/or destroyed - SO angry how we (as a country) would DARE destroy such "historic" structures.

I assume ya'll are INFURIATED by what's literally happening to the White House right now. Yeah?
