How sad is it that the richest country on Earth has a government that has to be forced to feed families with hungry children?

SNAP benefits shouldn’t be a courtroom battle. People shouldn’t have to beg for basic humanity. But here we are.

Shapiro: He rose to some prominence by writing a book about growing up in Appalachia, where there are a whole lot of people who get SNAP. He made millions of dollars off telling their stories, and then he turned his damn back on those very people he likes to write about and claim as his own.

I understand why we shut down American airspace for a few days after 9-11 to avoid a repeat attack but imagine shutting down American airspace to avoid releasing the Epstein files.

Crockett: When you go and you hit those booths come the midterms, think about which party decided that it was okay to literally be on vacation while people were going hungry in the streets of America.

Chris Murphy: "There will be pretty substantial damage to a Dem brand that has been rehabilitated if on the heels of an election in which the people told us to keep fighting, we immediately stop... if we surrender without having gotten anything, I worry it'll be hard to get them back up off the mat"

On gas masks, from a #LosAngeles front line.

Some protesters prefer a full face mask, as I'm wearing here. Others prefer a nose & mouth respirator plus goggles.

Consider pros & cons.

A full face mask takes a bit longer to don & doff. It does not dangle around your neck when removed.

Mayor Bass denies city’s own data on nearly $400M LAPD liability costs Hours after LA Public Press reported the figure, Bass told a town hall the city would be "bankrupt" if the $384 million in LAPD costs were true.

I guess the Mayor doesn’t read my work. lapublicpress.org/2025/11/bass...

Walz: "We have a federal system that we're all in it together, we help other states when they need it, but we have a situation where they're trying to divide us & provide specific aid to states that they like at the moment, which is absolutely unconscionable... either that or give us our money back"

Marc Lobliner post on X: "Why the hell are we giving food stamps to 40 million people?

Does anyone work anymore?"

Marc Lobliner post on X: "Why the hell are we giving food stamps to 40 million people? Does anyone work anymore?"

SNAP isn't about "people who don't work." It's about people who don't get paid enough to live.

Of the 40 or so million people who rely on food stamps:

* Two-thirds are children, seniors, or disabled

* Most working-age adults who receive SNAP are employedβ€”but in jobs that pay poverty wages

Merkley: "What we've seen is that democracies no longer die bc men w/guns go in and take it over. Instead, it's electeds who erode the separation of power. If you have a rubber-stamp Congress & courts that deliver more power to the executive, suddenly you have an authoritarian state. It's here now."
