SNAP Meals: Where To Eat, No Questions Asked, During the Suspension of SNAP - Bridgetown Bites A list of SNAP Meals available at a number of restaurants, cafes, and food trucks in the Portland Metro area while SNAP is unfunded.

I've been compiling this list since yesterday afternoon, and am heartened and moved by the generosity of Portland's food world - restaurants, food carts, cafes, farmers markets. 33 businesses so far are providing free food/meals to SNAP recipients. #snapmeals #portland #bridgetownbites

Incredible talk last night, vital message from the esteemed @timothysnyder.bsky.social
We must keep pointing out the absurdity of the big lies and work toward a future we believe in.

Did you know that over 1.3M active duty service members and veterans rely on SNAP benefits to feed themselves and their families?

Now you know.

Medical teams use this for a variety of reasons and with oversight. If it's made to be classed as illicit, the benefits for pain management will be lost. Instead of demonizing everything, support for those illegally seeking it should be addressed #BlackOutTheSystem #StandUp #Medical #Hospice #Cancer

Mike Johnson called a Portland naked bike ride "the most threatening thing I've ever seen" but thinks an AI-generated video of the president carpet bombing US cities with human shit is "satire".

The president needs your help! He's collecting diarrhea for his plane. He has a plane that's 99% toilet with other people's diarrhea in it and he wears a little crown when he drives it around. Brave patriots please send your loose stool to your favorite diarrhea president for his diarrhea plane.

Documents Allege a Federal Agent at Portland ICE Threatened to Shoot an Ambulance Driver Feds delayed medics who had come to pick up an injured protester. Then, according to confidential incident reports, the agents became aggressive.

So the Trump administration is punishing government workers and their families for the millions of civilians expressing their free speech rights?

NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it.

The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait.

At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.

All pretence has been dropped.

They are planning for Trump to run in 2028 for a third term.

And then his son, and then his son's son.

MAGA now stands for:
Monarchy And Generational Authoritarianism.

Continue to tell normies about this. These are not popular policies!

The vast majority of people appropriately believe this is ghoulish behavior - including Trump supporters. They aren’t showing this on FOX or in the right wing information ecosystem, because this is what will make them crack.

RFK Jr. Vowed to Find the Environmental Causes of Autism. Then He Shut Down Research Trying to Do Just That. While touting a $50 million initiative to identify the causes of autism, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is helping lead an administration that is rolling back protections against pollution and toxic chemicals,...

Epidemiologist Erin McCanlies spent much of the past two decades studying how parents’ exposure to toxic chemicals affects the chances that they will have an autistic child.

RFK Jr. has now cut her entire division.
