WTAF! Opening fire with kids in the car!

If this isnโ€™t grounds for termination, nothing will be!

In my personal lifeโ€” and on this platform, people have asked what they can do to help federal employees.

1. All of us need emotional support. We want to feel valued. We want our work to be valued.

"the FBI director used taxpayer funds in a government shutdown to fly his country singer GF to sing at a Hulk Hogan-founded wrestling event aired on Fox Nation" is not the flashiest Trump-era headline but pound for pound it can compete with any contender

BREAKING: Trump has ordered the National Guard to create โ€œquick reactionโ€ forces nationwide by January to respond to civil unrest within the U.S.

Ask yourself why no other president felt the need to do this.

Let me get this right, fascist republicans say thereโ€™s no money to address the ongoing Healthcare crisis in the US but there is money for the orange felonโ€™s $250M ballroom, $172M for racist dog murderer Kristi Noemโ€™s two jets and a $40B giveaway to Argentinaโ€™s dictator. Got it.

SNAP benefits have never been cut off in any government shutdown... until now.
Not once.
Not under Bush.
Not under Obama.
Not even during other long shutdowns.

The only two times Americans have come close to losing food assistance - 2018 shutdown and now - were both under Donald Trump's presidency.

In 2018, the USDA had to scramble to pay February benefits early to stop people from going hungry.

Now in 2025, they're warning that millions may not get November benefits at all.
We're talking about families who rely on $6 a day for food... being told there's "no funding"... while billionaires get tax breaks and ICE burns through millions on tear gas.

This isn't fiscal responsibility.
It's cruelty.

Which seems to be the theme of Trump's administration."

The White House is illegally refusing to use reserve funds to pay for SNAP benefits and Donald Trump is fully aware of this.

Donโ€™t be gaslit, the money is there, but Trump refuses to prioritize the needs of American citizens because his main concern is a ballroom.

Trump doesnโ€™t care about you.

Quite a world when a federal judge has to call in a federal official to specifically tell him he can't use tear gas on children in Halloween costumes

Good info to have about SNAP benefits to combat misinformation, especially if you happen to see maga family members during the holidays.

NOAA flights are flying into hurricanes unpaid while Mike Johnson holds daily pressers to say that he, the Speaker of the House, is not in control of the House. In case you need a good example of how much of a coward Johnson is.

It was so frustrating how many people told me to relax back then, that I was overreacting, and that things would swing the other direction in the next election. They just didnโ€™t understand. In retrospect, I was underreacting, unable to imagine the depths of corruption and evil they were capable of.

The 37 ballroom donors wonโ€™t be remembered for generosity, but for funding a monument to authoritarian vanity during a shutdown, at a venue nicknamed after a sex trafficker, while Americans wonder how theyโ€™ll eat. History keeps receipts & their names arenโ€™t coming off those walls
