Rep. Rosa DeLauro: "On the food stamp issue, the money is there! Let them not get away with saying they can't do it. Their political will isn't there to feed the people who rely on the SNAP program which is the most effective anti-hunger program in the USA."

Eric is a Missouri congressman.

He is quite literally dependent on the federal government for his paycheck, his housing, and his free healthcare. He’s a tax recipient.

Millions of Americans are already learning that their health insurance costs for 2026 are going way up.

I want to hear from you so we can make this impossible for the GOP to ignore the consequences of their policies.

If your premiums are going up, reply below and please share your story.

The party of “Law & Order” stands for neither. There’s not a law they haven’t broken. This is another copyright infringement by Kristi Noem.

“We don’t have illegal aliens… the legal term for my people were slaves….”
🚨This is what leadership looks and sounds like in 2025.✊🏼

This is what happens when people elect a corrupt idiot as President of the nation.

Seems like an important detail

Priorities.

This is their playbook for the midterms. Intimidation and harassment - if we are lucky it will only be that. Because their full playbook is most likely much worse but this is the warmup act.

“According to a 2019 USDA report, every dollar in new SNAP benefits increases GDP by $1.50 in a weak economy.”

“SNAP benefits are one of the fastest, most effective forms of economic stimulus because they get money into the economy quickly during a recession.”

YouTube video by Reagan Library President Reagan's Radio Address on Free and Fair Trade on April 25, 1987

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube.

Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X).

*1981 Sherrilyn horrified by 2025 Sherrilyn saying “let’s post Reagan’s speech.”

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 81st day out of the last 93.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

ICE is stockpiling arms, including chemical weapons, guided missile warheads and explosive components. The spending dwarfs anything we've ever seen in the agency - a 700% increase.

The President is building an army to attack his own country.

Speaking of SNAP:

Burchett is Burchetting again.

N.C. counties that busted budgets after Helene still waiting for FEMA to pay them back A year after Hurricane Helene, FEMA hasn’t reimbursed millions of dollars spent on cleanup and recovery, upending local budgets and hindering reconstruction.

"Since Hurricane Helene devastated the community in North Carolina’s Blue Ridge Mountains, the county government has spent nearly $50 million on cleanup and recovery — while getting reimbursed only $4 million from the Federal Emergency Management Agency..."

If Republicans get their way and let ACA tax credits expire, 339,000 Americans will lose their jobs next year.

Almost half of them will be doctors, nurses and caregivers.

They call it policy. We call it cruelty.

ICE now abducting Black men off the streets of New York.

Yes, they are abducting American citizens.

A middle finger to erasure.

More of this, please. Now do Black Lives Matter!

“Can you put two and two together about what’s going on here??”

@saikatforcongress.bsky.social connects the dots for the panel

With SNAP benefits ending for millions & the economy shrinking what little resources food banks have, I’m sharing food resource supports & educators/creators.

Rebecca Chobat runs the account Dollar Tree Dinners—she educates on how to shop/cook thrifty like $100 budget for 30 days (90 meals) 🧵

From Byron Ballard’s Facebook Page: It's hard to hold in your heart, I know. But it all has to come down for the clean up and rebuilding. The East Wing is also a metaphor for that--the destruction that clears the way. None of us will be unaffected. We all must be preparing, every one of us in the ways we are called. Last year, before the flood, Ginger and I asked you to look at Project 2025 and respond with your wants and desires for the nation. I'm asking you the same thing now. Instead of doomscrolling in fear and a sick excitement, pick one area and ponder your ideas for it. How would you educate children? What sort of infrastructure would you create to deliver healthcare? What would a path to US citizenship look like? If you ran the street department in your town, how would you decide which pothole to fix first? Pretend you have the power. Because you do. We all do.

This is very good

Thou Shalt Share This Photo Because Trump Doesn’t Want You To He sure as hell wouldn’t want you liking this post or subscribing to this newsletter either.

Trump ordered Treasury employees not to share any more images of his demolition of The White House.

Bernie, I went through some really shitty times in Vietnam. But I sure as shit didn’t get a Nazi tattoo

Exactly this part of the White House is gone.
