His agenda was "Plenty bold"!

Marc Lobliner post on X: "Why the hell are we giving food stamps to 40 million people? Does anyone work anymore?"

SNAP isn't about "people who don't work." It's about people who don't get paid enough to live.

Of the 40 or so million people who rely on food stamps:

* Two-thirds are children, seniors, or disabled

* Most working-age adults who receive SNAP are employed—but in jobs that pay poverty wages

Los dos.

¿Los dos?

What is happening here was predictable, avoidable, and is dismantleable. It will never not be frustrating that so many ignored the decade(s) of symptoms.

Anyway, I hope those who have done the vital work to warn us take time for themselves to play 40K or whatever.

Yeah, same. It feels bad.

I'm so fucking embarrassed to be an MR fan right now.

Isn't the government shut down? I was pretty sure this included federal contractors. Can someone explain to me how this is happening?

"Are you Haitian?" should've been predicable from someone who's a professional racist, but it still surprised me.

"And our daughter is called Jennifer Dickenballs."

I'm sorry. I'm a child.

My vote in the 2028 D primary for POTUS will hinge almost entirely on the % of this Administration they promise to imprison

There's literally no reason for Congress to exist if any random freak in the presidential orbit can nullify laws and seize federal funds. All of this is plainly illegal, but Mike Johnson leads the most corrupt Congress in US history (and by a wide margin.)

Fucking Steve.

Christopher Columbus was dragged back to Spain in chains by a crusading knight, convicted of tyranny and immeasurable cruelty, pardoned by Isabella but banned from returning to Hispaniola.

Fuck Columbus.

That is amazing. Thank you for sharing.

Maybe Ezra Klein will say she's great. Let's give it a week.

This video of Chicagoans intervening to save a man from being abducted off the streets by ICE is making the rounds on Instagram.

Community action works.

All the videos we see of ICE/police/military assaulting people on camera are happening because they know they will face no consequences for their actions. They're breaking the law because they believe the law no longer applies to them. What kept them in check before was fear. Now they have none.

Ezra Klein: There's a Rick & Morty quote I really like.

Ezra Klein: It goes like this, "Why would a pop-tart want to live inside a toaster? That would be like the scariest place for them to live."

Ta-Nehisi Coates not saying anything

Ezra Klein: Because in the episode they go to a neighborhood where everyone is a pop-tart and they live in toaster-houses.

No doubt!

Democrats are out here fighting fascists with decorum and procedure, and it shows.

I am never impressed by Klein. I am never not impressed by Coates.

Jesus Christ, how are you so unbelievably bad at this?

A deeply unpopular president is recklessly destroying our government, wrecking our democracy, covering up pedophilia and now threatening to use military force against our own citizens but you're tsk-tsking about protecting healthcare?

Those are the aptly named milkweed bugs.

I literally cannot image it. That capacity has been lost to me.

Now that the UN commission has confirmed what we have all been able to see perfectly clearly for the past two years, I just want to say that one of the most reprehensible denial arguments I heard again and again was "if Israel was intent on committing genocide, there would be no Palestinians left"

I've never been so relieved.
