The Trump administration told states that they must “immediately undo” any actions to provide full food stamp benefits to low-income families, in a move that added to the chaos surrounding the nation’s largest anti-hunger program during the government shutdown. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/09/b...

Trump touts cost of Walmart's Thanksgiving meal to vindicate his policies — ignoring a key detail Since Tuesday's elections, Trump has repeatedly boasted that Walmart's Thanksgiving meal bundle is cheaper than it was under President Joe Biden. But there's also less food in it.

President Trump has pointed to the cost of Walmart’s Thanksgiving meal bundle, which is roughly 25% less expensive this year than it was last year, as an example of the economy experiencing a “golden age.”

But the 2025 Thanksgiving bundle is also smaller than the 2024 package.

This is the food distribution line at Nellis Air Force Base in Las Vegas 11/7/25. This is what Trump doesn't want you to see.

‘You Are All Terrorists’: Four Months in a Salvadoran Prison

40 men Trump sent to CECOT tell the NYT they were beaten, tortured, and sexually assaulted. The details are worse than you can imagine.

We can’t let them get away with this. Miller and the other architects of this sadism need to go to prison.

Chris Coons: "He's not listening to concerns about lowering costs. Instead he's worried about decorating his new Marie Antoinette ballroom or engaging in trying to figure out how to get his name on more statues and stadiums, or he's sitting across the table in the Oval Office with authoritarians."

ICE agents in Chicago violently detain a non verbal autistic man for being “non compliant”

He couldn’t “comply” because of his disability…they don’t care

This is not the first time they’ve gone after a disabled person

They target the most vulnerable because it’s an easy way to meet their quota

Trump every time he’s confronted about one of his lies: “Who are you with?”

Reporter: Gives name of company.

Trump: You’re fake news. You’re terrible. I’m not calling on you anymore! You should be ashamed of yourself! This is why nobody watches you!

Then goes back to lying.

Senate update: Republicans are now trying to sneak a backdoor national abortion ban into their government funding bill. Republicans will stop at nothing to control women's health care decisions.

The President of the United States cannot stay awake for more than an hour. He’s in and out of the hospital more than a patient with cancer. He has no idea who is being pardoned or given Carte Blanche over the use of US taxpayer dollars. We are being led by unelected people. I am angry.

A long and comprehensive opinion, but this jumped out at me: The judge accused the Federal Protective Service—which was called in to suppress the protests—of lying under oath to slander the regular Portland police.😬

DOJ recently admitted that other FPS claims in this case were objectively false.

The White House keeps unilaterally taking entirely voluntary actions which it openly says are intended to inflict more pain and then they're I guess surprised - along with most of the DC media - about why they seem to be taking the blame for the shutdown.

Trump Dismisses Voters’ Concerns About The Economy After Tuesday’s GOP Rout Trump insisted Thursday “the Democrats ‘affordability’ issue is DEAD!”

There is something deeply broken about an economy that creates trillionaires while people get buried under the cost of living and 42 million go hungry. The ultra-rich should realize that my Billionaires Income Tax, aimed at ensuring they pay their fair share, represents the moderate path forward.

ICE grabs father by the neck—send him into violent seizure while his arms lock up around his toddler.

"He's having seizure and they're trying to rip the baby out of his hands!"

Agents then handcuff him—before putting in ambulance with his child.

The AP tracked down details of some of the people killed in President Trump's military strikes on drug smugglers he describes as narco-terrorists.

They were, with one exception, not high-level criminals. One was a fisherman. One was a bus driver; another a taxi driver.

A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.

Federal judge says border patrol chief admitted he lied, in ruling limiting federal agents’ use of force in Chicago | CNN A federal judge issued a preliminary injunction restricting the use of force by federal agents in Chicago, finding the Trump administration’s version of recent events involving agents was not credible...

Lies and abuses of power have become the norm at Trump’s DHS — and today a judge restricted use of force from federal agents in Chicago who used lies to “justify” their horrific abuses.

The lawlessness must end and those abusing their power must be held accountable.

Rep. Yassamin Ansari has set up a table and this sign outside Speaker Johnson’s office.

Combating this lie is tiresome.

But it’s worth pointing out that RBOB gasoline today hit its highest level since September. ⛽️

AI's capabilities may be exaggerated by flawed tests, according to new study A study from the Oxford Internet Institute analyzed 445 tests used to evaluate AI models.

Researchers behind a new study say that the methods used to evaluate AI systems’ capabilities routinely oversell AI performance.

Excessive force. PERIOD!

They called them “violent mobs,” but the violence came from the guys with badges and body armor.

How about?... No!

Mr. "I Don't Take Responsibility At All" thinks the MASSIVE BLUE WAVE was because he wasn't on the ballot, not
a Major Referendum on his 2nd Term.

Turns out folks prefer feeding the hungry over building expen$ive, tacky Ballrooms.

Looking forward to the midterms... 🌊
