They must be realizing that their own constituents will not react kindly to being starved.

USDA’s refusal to use its contingency fund means SNAP will run out on Nov. 1 and leave 42 million Americans at risk of going hungry.

Food pantries have already seen 12x more traffic than normal. It’s time for the House to return to session, vote to ensure SNAP funding, and ensure our kids are fed.

@neguse.house.gov gives a lesson on how to reframe a journalist’s stupid question about #SNAP! 💪🏼

FACTS about SNAP:

-35% to white people (largest share)
-90% to people born in 🇺🇸
-86% to households with kids
-70% work full time but aren’t paid a living wage (aka corporate welfare)

Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) declaring he won't call the House of Representatives into session until JANUARY at the earliest, means this isn't a shut-down.
This is a #RepublicanCOUP.

Your daily reminder that Trump absolutely can fund SNAP through contingency funds.

He absolutely can prevent 42 million Americans — including 20 million children — from going hungry next month.

He is choosing not to. Don’t let him lie his way out of this.

Pritzker: "I sent a letter to Kristi Noem and to DHS leadership asking them to pause all of their federal agent operations for the entirety of the Halloween weekend. I'm asking for basic human decency. I think their response will be revealing. Give the children and families of Illinois a break."

Farnsworth is an excellent cat name

What is it that you do all day while you’re not working?

Utah is now building what many human rights activists are concerned will be a forced labor camp for homeless people.

Rather than address a broken system that is harming countless Americans, the gop want to punish those victimized by this broken system.

Miscarried is too passive a verb for what happened to these women. ICE killed their unborn children in the womb.

Spending tax dollars on $175M private jets, $1B to renovate a private jet, $150M on golf trips, & other wasteful spending while Americans face going without food due to SNAP benefits not going out in Nov is a gop policy choice.

@merkley.senate.gov’s recent filibuster lasted for 22 hours and 37 minutes (or longer, depending on the source) as he spoke on the Senate floor in protest of Trump's actions during a government shutdown.
His #CupOfJoe was full of disdain oven Trump’s authoritarianism.
MORE PLEASE!

1. “No swastika tattoos on senators” is actually a very reasonable line.
2. It’s not normal to have a “Nazi phase.”
3. Your “Nazi phase” wasn’t cute or harmless, even if it was limited to posting. You were just a kid? So what? So were the Jewish & Black kids who had to see your hate posts.

It’s beyond pathetic. The mainstream media, on the whole, is comprised of feckless cowards and shameless hypocrites.

You need to see this…

Just so we’re all clear on the gravity and historical significance of what Trump has done to the East Wing of the People’s House.

So the president of the United States of America posts a video of him, dressed as a king, flying a plane lane that dumps shit on the No Kings marchers, and no MSM thinks this was worth reporting? Am I missing something?
