Thereโs a special place in hell for anyone who can watch this and feel joy.

The Trump administration must obey the law.
Federal judges have been clear: release the contingency funds NOW.
Do not allow 42 million Americans to go hungry while billionaires get tax breaks.
Popok: The blue states and cities effectively brought the cases. The red states are suffering, and their AGs are sitting on the sidelines. Thereโs 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.

If Republicans get their way, 50,000 Americans will die unnecessarily every year.
15 million will lose their health care.
20 million will see their premiums double.
All so they can give a trillion dollar tax break to the 1%.
If President Trump wants to improve things, he should work with local leaders in a spirit of cooperation and coordination โ not against them.

22.10.2025 23:14 โ ๐ 229 ๐ 29 ๐ฌ 10 ๐ 1Fifteen million are about to lose health care. Premiums are set to double. Housing & child care are outrageously expensive.
Meanwhile, Trumpโs priorities are demolishing the White House, bailing out Argentina & now threatening war with Venezuela.
What happened to America First?
This is what oligarchy looks like:
Trump gave corporate America a $920 billion tax break.
Now, corporations like Amazon, Meta, Apple, Google & Lockheed Martin are returning the favor by giving Trump $300 million for a fancy ballroom.
Thatโs a pretty good return on investment.
By refusing to work with Democrats, Republicans are willing to DOUBLE the health care costs for millions of people.
Itโs shameful.
During the shutdown, Trump could find $40 billion to bail out Argentina & $300 million for a ballroom to host dinner parties with billionaires, but he wonโt tap emergency funds to prevent millions of American kids from going hungry?
How cruel is that?
Donald Trump is abusing the pardon power as a means of rewarding his family, his allies & his wealthy donors.
I'm headed to the floor with @warren.senate.gov to attempt to pass a resolution condemning his pardon of crypto billionaire Changpeng Zhaoโthe latest in a long string of corrupt clemencies.
Republicans are taking away health care from 15 million Americans.
They are doubling premiums for 20 million.
Now, they are illegally withholding emergency SNAP funding that keeps millions of children from going hungry.
All so they can give $1 trillion in tax breaks to the 1%.
More than five million Californians, including children and seniors, rely on food assistance.ย
Trumpโs refusal to provide SNAP benefits will force millions to go hungry.ย ย
Thereโs no policy behind this. Just cruelty.
I'm grateful that the Vermont governor & legislators acted to prevent Vermont children & families from going hungry.
Now Trump must obey the law & release $5 billion in emergency SNAP funding appropriated by Congress.
The richest country on Earth shouldn't be facing a hunger crisis.
15 Republican senators have now joined all 47 members of the Democratic caucus on legislation to extend SNAP benefits during the shutdown.
In all, 62 senators are on this bill.
I say to Majority Leader Thune: Don't let kids go hungry in America. Call a vote on this bill NOW!
Trump and Republicans in Congress are willing to let 16 million kids in America go hungry to make a political point.
Disgusting.
Mr. President: Release the SNAP emergency funds that Congress appropriated.
The law is clear.
As USDAโs own staff earlier agreed.
And now the law is upheld.
Donald Trump cannot withhold SNAP food assistance to inflict even more pain during his shutdown.
if trump thought debuting his hideous 'remodeling' of the Lincoln Bathroom would change the subject from all the shit he's doing and not doing, he's wrong.

Thatโs 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 itโs too late.
Newsom: The New Testament and Old Testament have one dominant thing in commonโMatthew, Isaiah, Luke, Proverbs, go down the listโitโs about food, about serving those who are hungry. Itโs not a suggestion; itโs core and essential to what it means to align with Godโs will.
