I looked it up...over 48,000 of those SNAP households are in Clay Higgins' district.
That's around 126,000 of his constituents, or 16% of the entire population of LA-03.
I think this man want attention

"The once-innocuous pain medication has become a symbol for misogynists of how women are evil, disobedient harlots.
"It’s also a narcissitic fixation for Trump, who has not recovered from being told, by women no less, that he is not the smartest man who ever lived."

Q: What did you mean when you said you're prepared to send 'more than the National Guard' into American cities?
TRUMP: if I want to enact a certain act, I'd be allowed to do whatever I want. The courts wouldn't get involved. Nobody would. I could send Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines -anybody I want

Haitians consistently call for NGOs and them to leave, and tell people not to donate to those NGOs
Most of the aid that goes to Haiti, goes to foreign corporations and the US military not to Haitians

If he really wanted to roll up the networks, he would be interdicting these boats and exploiting them for intelligence, not destroying all of it in kinetic strikes.
White House pressed U.S. Navy officials to launch 2,000-pound live bombs instead of dummy explosives during an elaborate military demonstration for the service’s 250th anniversary celebration that Trump attended, two people familiar with planning for the event told the AP.

WILD story. A DHS officer shot at a man he thought was fleeing (a judge dismissed all charges). Bullets went into the driver's side window, through his jacket collar, and into the empty passenger seat. An MPD cop on the scene says he was ordered not to put it in the police report.

There is a lot going on in this sentence:

In the first half of this year, the income of President Trump's family business soared 17-fold to $864 million, based almost entirely on new crypto ventures that have been a magnet for overseas cash, a Reuters investigation found.

Three men — Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, and Jeff Bezos — now own more wealth than 165 million Americans combined.
They own the media.
They own the algorithms.
They own politicians in both parties.
The system is rigged — but We the People can take it back.

Democrats didn't campaign on LGBTQ rights. Trans people weren't even permitted to speak at the DNC. This is the most persistent lie about the 2024 campaign, and it keeps being pushed by grown adults who should know better.

The GOP has been extremely effective at shaping perceptions of the Democrats, claiming they support policy positions they don't actually support
If your strategy, as a Dem, for winning in 2028 *STARTS* by buying their spin and lies, then you've already lost

This nearly total retconning, by Dems themselves, of what the Democratic Party was actually doing between 2017 and 2024 is becoming really pervasive (esp in policy world) and I honestly don't have a good explanation for why the party is treating the babies (ARP, BIL, IRA) as if they're the bathwater

Results from a new study shows that voters want fairness, accountability and immediate relief from rising costs. The results could point the way forward for a Democratic Party stuck in the wilderness.
