Walmart and McDonaldβs are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.
McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year β over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.
Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M β 930x the company's median employee pay.
See the problem?

IMPORTANT: Before the fascist attack on Senator Alex Padilla, Kristi Noem said that her gestapo in California were staying to "liberate the city socialist and the burdensome leadership that this governor and that this mayor have placed on this country."

Maybe? I need to see her start talking now and stop sending me emails asking for money. My heart is with Katie Porter, but she's said she will drop out if KH decides to run. I don't want KH to run again for president, but I would vote for her for Gov over any other Dem in the race except Porter.

I will not vote for a single Dem in '28 who is talking about Biden now at all. I don't want to hear it. There are much bigger issues at hand- move on. Not Beto, not the Obama team, not one. How about solving some actual problems instead of wistful whining?

Schumer handed them the keys to the country and the path to destruction, without even an attempt at negotiations. So it shuts down for a week and forces them to the table? That's not worse than what DOGE is doing every day. It's cheaper than reinstating people after massive lawsuits. Don't cave!
