More than 47 million Americans — including one in five children — don’t have reliable, affordable access to nutritious food. And as the cost of living skyrockets, more families are depending on SNAP benefits, or food stamps, to put food on the table.

I didn't do this one, but I can't stop laughing. Look at it! 😅🤣😂🤣

Gov. Hochul declares state of emergency over cuts to SNAP Hochul said New York is committing $65 million for emergency food assistance.

NY State declares State of Emergency

California – this Election Day, vote yes on Prop 50.

California’s Prop 50 says that if Republicans are going to abuse the system to try and hang onto power, we’re going to counteract that abuse and create a level playing field in the midterm elections.

Make a plan to vote yes on Prop 50.

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)

A timeline cleanse. Two hummingbirds taking shelter from the rain inside a rose.

Good night Bluesky.🥰

Please understand that people will not be "going without SNAP/EBT/food stamps" - people will be going without FOOD.

Actually and literally.

Slap this quote on the side of Air Force One, the White House, your front lawn, everywhere. We should hear this on every media outlet and echoing through the streets.

“Love you all, but there’s a few people in here who have a lot more money than me. And if you’re a billionaire—why are you a billionaire? No hate, but give your money away, shorties.” — Billie Eilish before donating $11.5 Million dollars. Be like Billie.

President Orange Julius Caesar and his ilk claim that guns are a God given right but don’t feel that food is a God given right. They claim to care about babies but don’t care if they go hungry when they become children.

It’s time for soft secession How blue states can use their economic clout to stand up to Trump’s agenda—starting with California.

DOJ Puts Prosecutors On Leave For Accurately Describing Jan. 6 Attack Read more here.

🚨BREAKING: The Department of Justice (DOJ) this week placed two federal prosecutors on leave after they wrote in a court filing that on Jan. 6, 2021, “thousands of people comprising a mob of rioters attacked the U.S. Capitol,” a source familiar with the personnel moves told Democracy Docket.

Cost to fund SNAP and keep 42 million people from starving:

$100 billion

Cost of lost revenue due to tax cuts for the richest Americans in the top 1%:

$100 billion

One is decried as "welfare." One is not.

Why?

There's a special place in hell for the GOP 👇

Reminder:

Maybe they should watch Russell Crowe’s new Nuremberg movie when it comes out next week. Just some helpful advice.

Children deserve food.
The elderly deserve food.
Immigrants deserve food.
Homeless people deserve food.
Working people deserve food.
Disabled people deserve food.
Christians deserve food.
Atheists deserve food.
POC deserve food.
LGBTQ+ members deserve food.

Humans deserve food.

🫢 😳 😧 🤢 🤮 😡

I have an even worse feeling about THIS:

ROLLING STONE: “The current Congress has dropped the pretense of public service altogether… Congress enjoys ultraluxe health care as it fights to gut yours.”

@RepTimBurchett @MarshaBlackburn why don’t you care about anyone but yourselves? www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Just checking: the republicans that attacked and sent marshals to arrest Texas dems for not showing up to work (in an effort to protect voting rights, btw) are the same republicans that are not showing up to work, yeah?

Did you know that over 1.3M active duty service members and veterans rely on SNAP benefits to feed themselves and their families?

Now you know.

They don’t have money for children’s cancer care or research, but the ballroom is Trump’s priority.

I’m so disappointed with the people who stayed home and didn’t vote.

Leavitt: "At this moment in time, of course, the ballroom is really the president's main priority."

I’d probably kill myself if I was molested by the man that is now president. Those poor women.
