We live in a time when enough people finally see billionaire donations as the red flags they've always been.

When it comes to the Dems bragging about fundraising goals and numbers right now while ppl suffer from loss of SNAP & gov shutdown ... to me, I'm like: READ THE ROOM.

Y'all wanna say this is about The People and then make it all about the money?

Voters in some Colorado communities begin to chafe at taxing tourists to pay for local services A handful of taxes on skiing, hotels and short-term rentals passed, but some communities rejected plans to raise taxes paid by tourists

Important subject to track.

As a public servant, the job includes finding the most tenable solutions even if they still present their own significant challenges.

Mexicoโ€™s President Sheinbaum takes legal action after groping incident | CNN Mexicoโ€™s President Claudia Sheinbaum is pressing charges against a man who she said was โ€œdrunkโ€ and harassed her on Tuesday, calling the incident โ€œan assault on all women.โ€

Walmart and McDonaldโ€™s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.

McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year โ€” over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.

Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M โ€” 930x the company's median employee pay.

See the problem?

Sounds like domestic terrorism to me. That definition doesn't change just because the fascist in the White House is giving ICE the thumbs up to commit this violence on behalf of the state.

When the state commits such violence We the People recognize it exactly for the evil that it is!

More of the brutal shock & awe campaign from the fascists already leaving their horrid marks on history.

Ppl keep saying we need to fight the takeover. It's already happened, making how we react ever more critical!

The 2026 midterm is harm mitigation, yet every bit matters given our dire straits.

"While the $10 million in state funding wonโ€™t be enough to offset the $120 million in SNAP payments Coloradans receive every month from the federal government, officials hope it can bolster food banksโ€™ buying power."

Colorado officials warn SNAP benefits could run out soon As the federal government shutdown stretches into its third week, Colorado leaders are warning of a looming consequence for low-income families.

The El Paso County Department of Human Services said about 85K people in the county are at risk of losing SNAP as the current administration continues to fk up the federal government. This article has no comments from Commissioners. That's no good.
