Don't forget that joy is resistance against tyranny. Joy is unpredictable and emotional and you can't be controlled when you are in a state of joy. The administration wants us to be beaten down and in despair because that's how they feel. Choose joy over tyranny, please.

The largest SNAP cuts in history went into effect yesterday, eliminating or drastically cutting food assistance for millions of Americans.

And itโ€™s all to pay for more tax cuts that primarily benefit the super-rich.

Trickle-down economics isn't just a hoax โ€” it's cruel.

James Hansen's Latest Warning Climate Collapse Is Coming Faster Than Youโ€™ve Been Told

#talkcollapse: remember James Hansen?

He's saying:

"Warming is accelerating faster than models predicted.

Major climate tipping points (are) closer than thought.

The science community (is) undercommunicating the danger."

#Climatecollapse is here. Now.

The CEO-to-worker pay ratio at S&P 500 companies last year was 285-to-1. The median employee would have had to start working in the year 1740 to earn what the average CEO received in 2024. Is it any wonder why so many think the system is rigged?

Trumpโ€™s EPA wants to roll back standards regulating pollutants from burning fossil fuels, like car exhaust and methane.

Meanwhile, 17 staffers in his White House own up to $2.2 million of stock in Big Oil companies.

Theyโ€™re getting rich off polluting the planet.

Children are intentionally being starved to death in Gaza. This will soon turn out to be one of the worst tragedies in human history.
Israel and the USA are knowingly letting them starve.

Everything the Trump regime does is cruelly designed (or haphazardly carried out) to inflict maximum harm.

That is especially the case for states like Maine and California, which it has chosen to make โ€œexamplesโ€ of when governments and citizens stand up to the regime.

And it will only get worse.

The thing about the Epstein disgustingness that strikes me hardest is that hundreds of rich old men raped underage girls and the only person currently in jail for that vile behavior is a woman.

"A yawning hole of need": SNAP cuts exacerbate food bank strain "Food banks are stretched literally to the breaking point," one leader told Axios.

"Feeding America estimates that provisions affecting SNAP alone could eliminate the equivalent of some 6 to 9 billion meals annually...Feeding America's network...would have to "essentially more than double" its amount of food distributed."

Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson says โ€˜state of our democracyโ€™ keeps her up at night | CNN Politics Jackson did not say what, specifically, concerned her about the state of democracy, though she has recently written a series of scathing dissents.

It should be lost on no one how significant it is for a Supreme Court justice to issue these warnings. Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson is telling us that our democracy is in extreme peril. It would behoove anyone who cares about this country to listen.

The people who lost children and other loved ones in the Texas floods are owed honest answers from officials. They should be told why flash flood warnings issued hours earlier were not conveyed to people in the path of the water. They donโ€™t need more prayers from politicians. They need answers.

The first group of immigrants has arrived at a new โ€œcampโ€ deep in the Florida Everglades, where officials are openly describing it as โ€œconcentratingโ€ certain people in one area. Have you seen the photos of the flooding? This entire site is a human rights violation.

I donโ€™t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make whatโ€™s happening now look like childโ€™s play. And people are disappearing.

The U.S. Senate is currently considering a budget reconciliation bill that quietly includes language that could devastate our public lands. It would:
- Make over 250 million acres of public land eligible for sale
- Mandate the sale of at least 2 million acres of Forest Service and BLM land

The federal government is taking over the California National Guard and deploying 2,000 soldiers in Los Angeles โ€” not because there is a shortage of law enforcement, but because they want a spectacle.

Don't give them one.

Never use violence. Speak out peacefully.

A recent study found that for every $1 invested in the National Weather Service, it produces $73 in value to Americans.

Not only is the NWS a life-saving government resource, it's actually quite efficient.

What?!?! The EPA has drafted a plan to eliminate all pollution controls from coal and gas-fired power plants. The agency claims these plants โ€œdo not contribute significantlyโ€ to dangerous pollution or climate change, arguing their emissions are a small and declining share of global totals.

Hundreds of rural hospitals are at risk of closing, threatening critical care Hospital officials told CBS News the closure was driven by the same factors that have closed other rural hospitals: low reimbursement rates.

We should be investing in rural communities and making them better places to build a life & raise a family - not shutting down rural hospitals by choking off their funding.

Saving rural hospitals is one more reason to call your Representative and speak out against this GOP attempt to cut Medicaid.

If Rational Arguments no longer work in US governance, itโ€™s evidence of a deeper problem in our educational system, which favors what to know over how to think โ€” how to critically analyze, process, & verify information.

Seems like a bad time to reduce funding for Public Education.

Prices are rising nationwide and Trumpโ€™s gaslighting everyone about why. His tariffs and failed policies are driving costs up. Heโ€™s spent $200 billion more in his first 100 days than the same period last year, delivering less to Americans at a greater cost.
