Mike Johnson lies shamelessly: "The president is desperate for SNAP benefits to flow to the American citizens who desperately rely on it ... the SNAP situation has legal impediments."

Things your home garden probably can't do: produce enough calories to sustain you and your household

Things your home garden probably can do: fill your freezer with 50 servings of pesto oh god oh no it's 80 degrees in November and more is still growing in the garden jesus

Aw man. Buddy. My heart. 💔

That’s real rough. 🫂

The idea of just jabbing the cracker in the cheese like some kind of gremlin or worse - having to procure a separate utensil??? We used to be a society.

Ohhhhh so it's even WORSE

Well this is horrible.

Leaving aside the evilness of this, is a customer paying cash because SNAP wasn't funded really a "SNAP paying customer"?

So good

A venn diagram that would be useful for more Americans to understand

Dayanne Figueroa was on her way to get coffee before heading to work when she encountered a chaotic scene in West Town: heavily armed, masked federal agents making arrests on a residential street. People yelled as vehicles honked their horn — a sign now used to alert neighbors that immigration federal agents are in the area — and witnesses said federal agents had arrested several landscaper workers presumed to be in the country without authorization. As Figuero tried to drive through the 1600 block of West Hubbard Street on Friday, Oct. 10, an unmarked vehicle driven by federal agents collided with Figueroa’s as it tried to speed away from a hostile crowd, multiple videos reviewed by the Tribune show. Seconds after the crash, agents abruptly stopped their vehicle and exited with weapons in hand pointing at Figueroa, a U.S citizen. Agents then forcibly opened her door and pulled her out of the vehicle by her legs without identifying themselves, presenting a warrant or informing her that she was under arrest. As bystanders yelled, “You hit her! We have it on video!” agents ignored the crowd and forced Figueroa into a red minivan and drove away. Her car was left behind in the middle of the road, her coffee still in the cup holder, and her keys in plain view.

In Chicago, a woman was driving to get coffee when a DHS vehicle fleeing an angry crowd crashed into her car. Armed agents jumped out of the vehicle, yanked her door open, pulled her by the legs out of her car at gunpoint, held her incommunicado for hours, then released her with no charges.

Average Platner defender be like,

This is the worst, honestly. If I ever mention gibibytes I have to explicitly also call out that it’s not gigabyte and that yes I’m using the right word, I know what I’m talking about, the difference matters, etc etc

I didn’t have to do that shit pre transition. A simple “nah I meant gb” was fine

ICE shooting a food bank worker in the back is a little on the nose for the current moment

And honestly, I’m side-eyeing the spectators too. Not one single person objected?

I don’t understand why he was the person to make the float. Also they said that the original approved design didn’t have the Auschwitz gate in it (presumably the plan he showed them had a cemetery gate — there’s graves below it), but…how did not one person notice and say absolutely not to that?

He says he didn’t know what the gate was. He meant to use a cemetery gate.

He seems kinda not all there.

It’s nuts

People who romanticize manual labor would do well to research the number of amputations, other serious bodily injuries, and fatalities among manual laborers. Construction, logging, transportation/warehousing, agriculture, manufacturing, oil and gas, etc.—these are all brutal industries for workers.

Everyone involved in this, including Trump, should be prosecuted for murder under the next administration.

Let him defend it with presidential immunity, and then take it back to SCOTUS after packing the court back into a real judicial body.

Evil

Again, if any of us had done what she did at the airport, we would have been face down on the ground.

This is unsurprising to anyone who has ever had goats

Holy shit, who designed this 100% unconstitutional piece of garbage?

My great grandfather was a farmer (produce and dairy) in central New York, and when the farm failed he became a jack-of-all-trades handyman in Cooperstown to keep a roof over his family's heads and sent every one of his eight children to college so that they wouldn't have to do the same.

I think a lot about how pretty much all of my ancestors, when they came to America from the old country, went straight to the cities and towns and became clerks, teachers, pastors, civil servants, etc. None of them wanted to farm.

Sometimes people are good.

And the float designer was another adult who doesn’t have kids at the school. His rambling explanation is…odd.

Regardless, a whole bunch of adults saw it and didn’t nothing.

It’s pre-k to 8, not high school

Jews who oppose the Trump admin campaign against higher ed - which polls consistently show is most of us - have basically been forced into a position where the choice of between ignoring anti-Jewish bigotry, or allowing ourselves to be forcibly conscripted into an agenda we oppose against our will.
