The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse.
I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email

Trump Canceled 94 Million Pounds of Food Aid. Here’s What Never Arrived. ProPublica obtained records from the Department of Agriculture that detail the millions of pounds of food, down to the number of eggs, that never reached food banks because of the administration’s cut...

Records obtained by ProPublica indicate that food banks across the country were expecting more than 27 million pounds of chicken, 2 million gallons of milk, 10 million pounds of dried fruit and 60 million eggs that never arrived.

He froze because he realized, in real time, that what he’d just said carried serious constitutional implications. Which now will be used against the Trump administration in court. He invoked β€œplenary authority.” That phrase means complete authority, basically the president has dictatorial powers.

Becoming increasingly clear we’re gonna have to build a parallel infrastructure for all the media we really love. The reason all of this is happening under the color of law is hyperconsolidation, dissent being traded straight up for merger approval, or fear of harassment.

reason i say 'post-dada' and not 'dada' is because when i see works like duchamps fountain or john cages 4'33 i think 'YES YOU GET IT' but when you actually read history of the movement it WAS mostly ironic. so i would say i sincerely believe what most early dada did as a snarl. therefore post-dada

A reminder that if the government can send migrants to a prison camp without any due process, it can send U.S. citizens there, too. I know because this happened to me and my family in 1942.

Kendrick Lamar knows that talent, education and pettiness can lead to a more prolonged suffering / slow death for the enemy in the only arena they care about, public opinion. Politicians, please be both more educated and more petty. No more high roads. Bring their exes to the Senate floor

Kendrick brought America together the way that "Country Roads" ad was supposed to.

This kind of buries the lede - he's freezing aid to South Africa because of apartheid reparations.
