“I can’t look at them smiling and lying to us while they hold us all for ransom,” @lorennacleary.bsky.social of West Virginia, 54, said of the Republicans. “It really is like that—like they kidnapped us until they get their payout.”

Crockett: Marjorie Taylor Greene voted for this point blank period. Her constituents were the ones that were on the receiving end of this.

NYT headline: Judge Orders Trump Administration to Fully Fund Food Stamps This Month The Justice Department later said it would appeal, leaving the program known as SNAP in limbo.

The Trump administration is now literally *fighting* to deny food to 42 million people, more than a third of them children.

Comic strip Calvin and Hobbes. Calvin's mom is eating dinner and saying "Life could be wortse, Calvin". Calvin is shouting back "Life could be a lot better, too!" I have humorously added the DNC logo to Calvin's Mom and the Zohran for NYC logo to Calvin.
