Democrats were overwhelmingly united on their shutdown demands.

Americans understood that Trump and Republicans were to blame.

Voters made it known last Tuesday that they'll elect leaders who stand up to Trump.

Democrats held the cards โ€” and folded for no reason.

On Tuesday, Americans sent Democrats a resounding message.

โ€œFight for usโ€

โ€œFight for working class Americansโ€

โ€œFight against Trumpโ€™s corruption, criminality and crueltyโ€

5 days later, Democrat Senators sent Americans a resounding message.

โ€œNahโ€

U.S. DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE
DATE:
November 8, 2025
SUBJECT: Updated Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)
November Benefit Issuance
TO:
Regional Directors
SNAP Division
All Regions
SNAP State Agency Directors
All State Agencies
This memorandum is a follow up to the guidance shared on October 10, October 24, November 4, November 5, and November 7, 2025, regarding Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits for November 2025.
The U.S. Supreme Court granted the U.S. Department of Agriculture an administrative stay of the orders issued by the District Court of Rhode Island in Rhode Island State Council of Churches, et al. v. Rollins, 25-cv-569. Pending any explicit direction to the contrary from Food and Nutrition Service (FNS), States must not transmit full benefit issuance files to EBT processors. Instead, States must continue to process and load the partial issuance files that reflect the 35 percent reduction of maximum allotments detailed in the November 5 guidance.
To the extent States sent full SNAP payment files for November 2025, this was unauthorized. Accordingly, States must immediately undo any steps taken to issue full SNAP benefits for November 2025. Please advise the appropriate FNS Regional Office representative of steps taken to correct any actions taken that do not comply with this memorandum.
Per 7 CFR 271.7(h), failure to comply with this memorandum may result in USDA taking various actions, including cancellation of the Federal share of State administrative costs and holding States liable for any overissances that result from the noncompliance.

If they fought for health care half as hard as they do to keep food from hungry families, this whole mess would be solved by now.

I had a run in with ICE snatching a man out of his car while walking my children to school this morning in NW DC

I asked a neighbor to continue walking my kids to school and I turned back to document and confront the ICE agents.

I am in contact with @dcmigrantmutualaid.org with the full video.

Australia has so much solar that it's offering everyone free electricity Australia's extensive solar power penetration makes so much energy that the government wants to offer free electricity at peak hours.

Australia has so much electricity from solar power that it is going to start offering free electricity to everyone for at least three hours during the day as the wholesale price of power goes negative

It's easy to believe most applicants to ICE can't even pass an open book test when you see the successful ones like this chad threatening to arrest a photographer simply for walking behind him in a goddamn Sam's Club parking lot.

Not exactly the sharpest bunch here.

Black farmers were systematically targeted by the U.S. government through racist USDA practices, denial of federal aid, and violence. The result: a 90% loss of Black-owned farmland from the early 1900s to the late 1990s.
