It’s about time we get this done. Agreed?

Man, Dems should be blasting the ruling all over the place, federal judges telling the government to release the money for SNAP

FBI: "We didn't zip tie children."

REPORTER: "Here's a photo of a zip tied 14 year old."

FBI" "OK, we didn't zip tie YOUNG children."

House Speaker Mike Johnson signed bill cutting $186B from SNAP in July 2025 Users shared this true claim amid uncertainty regarding whether Americans would receive federal food benefits during the 2025 government shutdown.

He's building a gold-guilded ballroom to host the foreign officials who come to bribe him, while denying millions of hungry kids food. Just how thuddingly obvious, how over-the-top, how florid & theatrical does this story have to get before the media starts honestly telling it?

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.

Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.

Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.

It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.

University of Pittsburgh professors push back against Trump 'compact' for higher education University of Pittsburgh professors have asked their school to reject a Trump "compact" that promises more access to federal resources to schools that sign on to his agenda

I'm glad to see our organizing with @AAUP.org is giving more colleges the courage to stand up to the Trump administration. Trump's offer to give preferential treatment to colleges in exchange for allegiance to his ideological agenda is entirely corrupt. www.wesa.fm/identity-com...

I am certainly no seasoned strategist but I am a little skeptical of the political wisdom behind building a giant golden ballroom and sharing a dozen photos of a renovated marble bathroom at the very moment that millions of people are losing access to healthcare and food.

I love how Rep. Joe Neguse reframed this question.

15 million Americans are going to lose their health care.

REV. BLACK (who was shot in the head with a pepper ball): “If this is what they’re doing to pastors, journalists, teachers, mothers, and the elderly gathered to sing and pray outside ICE facilities… what might they be doing to our neighbors who are behind those walls?”

Health care workers under 65 must be vaccinated against Covid The vaccination status of health care workers under 65 has profound implications for millions of Americans.

Excited that @statnews.com published our 1st Opinion on why ALL HCWs should be vaccinated against Covid--by me and Dr. Judith Feinberg.

Prop 50
So many Californians have already voted.

If not yet, add your voice!

We don’t only need to win, but OVERWHELMINGLY to show that we’ll fight for fair elections.

Jasmine and Jane urge you to vote YES ❤️

Yes!!

Rep. Adam Smith: "This country has not agreed to have the death penalty for drug smuggling. If we want to have that policy conversation, we can have that policy conversation, but the president has unilaterally decided that lethal force is going to be applied. It's an enormous expansion of power."

Every church should be doing this, and if your church isn’t, you’re at the wrong church.

A Little Judicial Schadenfreude One of my favorite things in court filings are little turns of the knife - especially when it has to do with Caesar himself. Allow me to explain.

Feds Won't Pause Immigration Blitz During Halloween, Día De Los Muertos, Homeland Security Boss Says During a news conference Thusday, Gov. JB Pritzker also slammed federal agents' targeting of people without criminal records and using tear gas on neighborhood streets.

blockclubchicago.org/2025/10/30/f... They are targeting children and religious holidays. They are staging ICE raids in cemeteries. There is nothing about this that has anything to do with law and order. This is lawlessness and desecration.
