Ngl I had been stressing over this meeting at work (I always do) and now that it’s passed and they said my work was good, I’m feeling much better about life 🫠 Lemme go home and write sumn

😩 Almost make me wanna participate

Time to get through the midterms and launch his campaign for 2028

In a way, I find the authoritarian takeover of our media system even more disturbing than the authoritarian takeover of our political system.

Our political system has been failing basically my entire adult life. But, the media system provided accountability and sort of worked. Now it’s collapsing.

Oklahoma really has one of the most backwards political systems in the country

Stephen Miller is running our gov't and he is a Nazi psychopath. We are not in good hands. 👿

Am I a better journalist than her? Yes. Would I also be very bad at running CBS News? Yes. Because like Bari I have zero experience running an operation of that size, or TV of any kind, and I am similarly stupid.

Absolutely everyone on SNAP could be abusing it and I would still believe that it should be an option for people. Food should be free, frankly. There’s enough for no one to go hungry

Trump ICE Raids Take Jarring Turn as Dem Gov Drops Scary New Warning As Illinois’ Governor warns of worsening fallout from Trump’s assault on Chicago, a political communications expert explains what this saga tells us about the state of our info-wars—and how Dems shoul...

"Of all the Dem govs, Pritzker understands the assignment best," says @davekarpf.bsky.social, because he's communicating that "his citizens are being attacked by Trump’s forces" in a way that'll get "the rest of the country to tune in."

Dave is so good here. Listen:

I just don’t think we’re freaking out enough about this SNAP cut. I have spent my whole career working with people who rely on SNAP for food. People who work multiple jobs. Who have kids. What do you think happens when 1/8th of the population can’t buy food anymore? Everything is going to collapse.

I’d suspect that campaign financing is now a form of money laundering and that matters more to turn than people starving

Please understand that people will not be "going without SNAP/EBT/food stamps" - people will be going without FOOD.

Actually and literally.

Private equity gave $10M to Trump's inauguration. He gave them greater access to Americans' 401(k)s.

DuPont and Dow Chemical gave $750K. Trump exempted them from an air pollution rule.

Intuit gave $1M. Trump killed the IRS Direct File Program.

Everything is for sale.

REV. BLACK (who was shot in the head with a pepper ball): “If this is what they’re doing to pastors, journalists, teachers, mothers, and the elderly gathered to sing and pray outside ICE facilities… what might they be doing to our neighbors who are behind those walls?”

The largest war ship in the world has been moved to the Caribbean, along with other ships, bombers, amphibious vehicles and more.

That’s a lot of firepower to stop small vessels carrying drugs.

It looks a lot more like preparation for war.

Congress needs to get involved before it’s too late.

The reason 42 million Americans are on SNAP is because employers aren’t paying living wages.

Jim Himes: "Where does this stop? Do we now start executing drug dealers on the corner of Brooklyn? Where does it stop if all of a sudden the government, without, telling anybody anything, can take this kind of lethal action just because they've decided they've got the right to."

Speaker Johnson needs to stop being on vacation, admit that Americans need healthcare assistance, strike the draconian health cuts from the ugly budget bill, and get back to work so he can swear in Arizona's newly elected Representative-elect Adelita Grijalva.

Host: 2,300 gallons of milk. 29,000 pounds of turkey breast. 270,000 eggs. These are all orders cancelled by Donald Trump.

Rep. Torres: Trump's shutdown of SNAP is a catastrophe for America. SNAP provides food to 42 million Americans. Donald Trump is effectively holding 42 million Americans hostage. He's treating hunger and food insecurity as leverage in his sick political game of extortion.

Destroying an entire news organization and targeting people of color and women in a day is astounding

CBS News fired 8 on-air personalities in latest layoffs. All of them are women EXCLUSIVE: Multiple sources told The Independent that senior foreign correspondent Debora Patta was added to the layoff list following a last-minute change by editor-in-chief Bari Weiss.

"...a male correspondent was initially included on the layoff list but was removed after he appealed directly to the new editor-in-chief, Bari Weiss, leading to another female correspondent being added to the list at the last minute."

Lol I’m gonna try my best
