An estimated 15.7 million workers use SNAP. Itโs a lifeline for those in low-wage jobs.
Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker.
Donโt be angry at workers for using food stamps.
Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.

Certainly, it does seem that way. One has to wonder whether they are being instructed to do things like this, as it appears to be becoming more common.

What happened to vetting candidates? Democrats can't run flawed candidates like Republicans can. Our base doesn't have the ability to vote for the lesser evil, they stay home.

Nope. It's okay when Trump's kids make money off of their dad's office. Doesn't even matter that they are making sooo much more, either.

Note: An executive order cannot transfer the statutory responsibility to the HHS head; it would require congressional approval to do so.
They are going to give money to schools (probably mostly private ones) that may not meet the standards. Special needs children will end up losing here. Shameful.

Tim Sheehy and Steve Daines are also hurt by this because Montana is just as deep as Maine.
That said, we all will be hurt by this. It's still crazy to me that policy is being made and destroyed as a result of one deeply flawed man's emotional responses to insignificant events.

Yes, he can pardon people, but that doesn't mean every pardon is ethical or righteous. Karoline would know that if there were any credible non-partisan ethics officials left in the administration or our institutions.

Ed Department Making Plans To Offload Special Education
The U.S. Department of Education is in talks to move oversight of special education programs to another federal agency.
The Secretary of Education is the "only agency head responsible for ensuring states and agencies meet the conditions and requirements in IDEA."
HHS doesn't have the power to enforce the rules of IDEA under the law.
These people are the absolute worst! ๐ฅ

White House struggles to defend Trumpโs pardon for founder of Binance crypto exchange
Changpeng Zhao helped finance the presidentโs stablecoin and helped put money in the Trump familyโs pockets while lobbying for a pardon. Evidently, it worked.
Beyond corrupt.
Karoline Leavitt tried to claim that "Zhao was a victim of the Biden administrationโs โwar on cryptocurrency.โ However, Zhao pleaded guilty to money laundering. Zhao's free because he helped finance Trump's stablecoin & made the Trump family richer.

Evidence appears to undercut claims against Letitia James, prosecutors found: Sources
Prosecutors who investigated NY AG Letitia James for mortgage fraud found evidence that would appear to undercut some of the allegations in her indictment, sources say.
Seems like their evidence is pretty weak, which explains why the other experienced lawyers wouldn't prosecute the case.
The article below was recently published. I'd be surprised if James was convicted like Trump, who actually did commit fraud with intent.

Will we ever see the list of donors and how much they actually contributed? Given Trump's history, I doubt he will be putting in much of his own money, unless we are talking about the 230 million he plans to shake down from taxpayers.

"As I said in my opinion for the court in Dobbs, more than once, nothing in Dobbs was meant to disturb that decision,โ Alito added, referring to Obergefell.
He'll use the same legal mechanisms from Dobbs to try to undo Obergefell. Then, argue that he decided the Davis case based on its own merits.
