Popok: The blue states and cities effectively brought the cases. The red states are suffering, and their AGs are sitting on the sidelines. There’s no red state that brought a case. Think about that: not one red state attorney general brought a case to help prevent starvation and suffering. None.

I've given my new Senator a lot of shit on here. But I don't think anyone with power has laid out the stakes of what we're facing as clearly as she does right here.

And if she's saying this, it's because she feels she must.

Pritzker: "Imagine it. Children who woke up that morning, expectant with joy & excitement to put on their costumes & celebrate with their neighbors in what they thought was a safe place at their homes. Armed, masked agents, terrorizing innocent people, especially children, is unconscionable."

Cost to fund SNAP and keep 42 million people from starving:

$100 billion

Cost of lost revenue due to tax cuts for the richest Americans in the top 1%:

$100 billion

One is decried as "welfare." One is not.

Why?

Welch: "This has nothing to do with the shutdown. The law requires and the funds are available to continue SNAP right now without any interruption. So that is a decision the president is making on his own to allow people to go hungry."

I'm one of them.

I have resources to keep myself fed, but not enough for my friends and loved ones.

It's going to be very bad.

Bezos and the Walmart family have 800 billion dollars between them and don't pay taxes to speak of, but sure, the perceived shortages are the dudes trimming your lawns.

We’re in a very dark place and I’m scared for our nation. I think that apartment complex in Chicago was a test. They will move on from immigrants soon. People need be to be prepared. We should act NOW!

Walz: "They are paying contractors to pay down the East Wing but they're not putting money into the food bank. So if there's a sense of frustration in America, it's very real ... when the White House press secretary said their top priority is the ballroom, we could not disagree more."

Millions of working Americans employed by big corporations rely on SNAP, with certain companies accounting for significant shares of recipients. Maybe if these big corporations paid workers enough instead of throwing money at Trump, they wouldn’t need SNAP. πŸ”„

The UK's King Charles hasn't destroyed an entire wing of Buckingham Palace or tried to shake the government down for an extra $230,000,000β€”because he knows he lacks the authority. AND HE'S A REAL KING.
