‘Utterly shameful’: Congress to crush US record this week for longest shutdown There’s no chance for Congress to resolve the shutdown and reopen the government before crossing the historic threshold Tuesday.

The shutdown will hit 35 days tomorrow — a new U.S. record — as Congress stays deadlocked and SNAP benefits and air travel are already feeling the strain.

Graphic titled "States with high percentages of people receiving disability benefits, many of them Trump voters, will feel the sting if future eligibility is tightened." It shows a map of the United States where each state is a square, and its color corresponds to the percentage of disability beneficiaries in each state’s population. The percentages range from 2% in yellow to 8% in brown. West Virginia, Kentucky, Arkansas, Mississippi and Alabama are all in purple, with the highest percentages in the country.

Until now, Social Security disability benefits got easier to qualify for as a person reached 50+. A new Trump plan would end that.

Under the plan, millions, particularly in red states, could find it more difficult to qualify for disability benefits in the future.

Federal judge orders Trump administration to pay SNAP benefits out of contingency fund The ruling came one day before funding for SNAP, more commonly known as food stamps, was set to lapse.

The courts had to step in and tell Donald Trump to feed the people. Let that sink in.

He was perfectly fine letting millions of Americans go hungry—in the middle of a shutdown that Republicans created.

Do what the judge said, Donald. Release the funds and stop playing with folks’ livelihoods.

WHAT THE FUCK

reminder that Hitler never wrote a new German constitution, never "officially" changed the government

he just closed the legislature and ruled alone, against the law, until he was stopped

Any young person who's trying to figure out manipulative patterns and behaviors, would be well-advised watch videos of Mike Johnson with the sound off – and then listen to him with audio only. He's a quintessential high-manipulative personality. Stay far, far away from anyone who reminds you of him.

They sure do!

I certainly do think it will be interesting to watch how many Republicans who refused to sign the petition end up voting to release the files when it comes to the floor to cover their asses back home. I will guess 5-10.

You know what evil looks like? The orange felon hosting a Great Gatsby themed gala at his trashy private club yesterday whilst trying to end SNAP benefits and healthcare subsidies from tens of millions of Americans. Giving a convicted criminal full power was a horrible idea.

When you kill innocents on the open seas as a justification for war, you're scared AF at what the public will discover in the Epstein files.

Thousands of you shared heartbreaking and maddening stories with me about rising health care costs. But the fight is far from over.

If you're willing to record your story, we can make sure GOP lawmakers see and hear the direct impact of their policy failures: wintheera.myctbl.com/share-your-s...
