Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

Sorry to hear. Sometimes I took a job that wasn't, but I made it into a dream job. That can happen.

I think we need to institute some contractual requirements about the number of days they work, IF they receive salaries & health insurance during shutdown. Testing, too. These legislators need to be tested so 1) they are forced to understand how the world works 2) they aren't complete morons.

Did you know that the GOP Congress has worked less than 20 days since July?

Yet we’re still paying their full salary.

This Psychological Term Explains How GOP Officials Justify Harm This concept helps potentially shed light on the justification for limiting food assistance, among other events.

β€œViolent innocence is a term that posits that a person or institution can cause significant harm while remaining morally ambiguous and/or seemingly β€˜unaware’ that they are causing it,” Alexandra Cromer, a licensed therapist with Thriveworks, told HuffPost.

Very Wednesday Adams, really.

Trump Aides’ Foul-Mouthed Emails to Journalists Laid Bare β€œYour mom” is the family friendly tip of the iceberg, our must-read newsletter The Swamp reveals.

I feel that this entire 'administration' has proved that if you treat everybody with disrespect, two things happen: 1) Everyone disrespects you back and 2)Everyone thinks that expressing that disrespect is A-okay.

It's not. I DON'T want a govt that disrespects people, journalists or Americans.

Q: A lot of Rs, including the Lt Gov, ran on keeping the good times going. Given the Lt Gov lost by 15, Rs are on track to lose more than a dozen House seats, is it possible Virginians don't see your admin the same way you do?

Trump Orders Republicans to Approve His Sinister Plan to Rule Forever The president of the United States is urging Republicans to grant him untrammeled power.

The Party of Death (GOP) is upset about the dem wins. Perhaps the assault on the American people, the trauma of constant terrorism from ICE and fear of being disappeared has an affect on VOTERS!

This rapist has fucked with our economy and damaged our govt support system, while stealing everything.

It's Day 36 of the Republican shutdown, the longest in American history.

All because the GOP refuse to work with Democrats to prevent families from paying hundreds extra per month for health care.

And it appears voters agree:

This is a colossal failure in leadership.

MAGA Governor Threatens Tariffs on β€˜Fleeing’ New Yorkers The Texas governor fears that people will move into the state after the city’s mayoral election.

ALL you have to do to create a law is YELL it into the AIRWAVES. Just scream your demands and it becomes LAW!

Abbot thinks people leave NY for Texas? Women aren't safe in TX. TX has not codified women's health care, including abortions, in TX. Don't go there.
