Who uses SNAP?

My friend, who works, raising 5 kids, husband bailed and won’t pay child support

My neighbor battling cancer and her life-saving meds are so expensive, she chooses between meds or food

My friend who’s a vet and struggles with mental health issues.

Not one of them chose this.

The thing they’ll remember is vibes not specifics, which makes it a notable choice to decide your job here is to make the vibes worse for Dems

U.S. Attorney investigating alleged grand ‘conspiracy’ calls unit-wide meeting after two prosecutors resign Career prosecutors on “pins and needles” after flurry of subpoenas approved.

JFC, would everyone STFU about Schumer? He didn’t negotiate this deal, he opposed it. This isn’t “the party.”

And no, there’s not much a Senate minority leader can do in that situation. The 8 who did that didn’t do it bc they don’t fear Schumer, they did it bc they don’t fear their state’s voters.

I thought it was going to go until the GOP/Trump decided to end the filibuster and then it would have been all on them

I think a lot plus SNAP

What do you think would have been the most likely best outcome pre-cave? I feel like people’s expectations of what victory would have looked like are probably significantly too high…

Probably the best take I’ve seen all night.

It starts all over & there could be another shutdown in 10 weeks, right as Trump is supposed to give the SOTU. And after people will lose their insurance.

The 8 shouldn’t have voted yes, but it’s still the Repubs facing the bigger political problems

BTW, this is a really important message. For better or for worse, there's only one vehicle for effective opposition to democratic backsliding in this country, and that's the Democratic Party.

Painting the entire Democratic Party with the same brush as with the 8 who folded, at this point of time, is counterproductive, even suicidal.

what he actually said was that mamdani doesn’t need his help and that he doesn’t live in new york but that he thought the race was very exciting and that cuomo disqualified himself, but, you know, hey, go ahead and make up people to get mad at if that makes your sunday morning more exciting

get in bitch we're destroying the west

Happy FSTL day to all who celebrate

This is a really hard day and I want to just add as WIRED's politics editor -- WIRED's politics reporting isn't going anywhere. We are very much here and won't stop.

Please continue to read and support us - canceling your subscription to WIRED is not standing in solidarity with our journalists.

Of course I'm worried about socialism. I mean, just imagine if Mamdani one day becomes President and nationalizes industry, imposes historic tax hikes, goes after the media, builds a secret national police force, militarizes the country, and sends people to camps.

Women should have jobs, but Ross Douthat shouldn’t.

What was once a Gray Lady is now a Trad Wife.

Guess I should take the day off to avoid, you know, ruining things?

Getting Obama rainbow unicorn vibes here….. 🙄

just tried to buy a $150 coat for my kid and was met with $103 in tariffs. is this because of the socialist mayor

lol

It wasn’t a targeted raid for a particular person. Border Patrol went room to room looking for day care workers

They were trying to kidnap people to whom children—some under 2 y/o—had bonded. The people who made the children feel protected, feel safe

It’s sadism. And it could be coming your way

Oh mine too

Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

How badly are oral arguments over Trump's tariffs going for the government?

Neal Katyal just began a sentence with: "Justice Gorsuch hit the nail on the head..."

Does he have any concept how utterly predictable he is? He’s a parody of himself

Good morning to these future governors!

I’m just a small-town political scientist, & it’s still relatively early, but it appears that The Actual Democrats did not Need To Do any of the Things or Learn any of the Obvious Lessons that Ezra Douthglesias said they Must Do & Learn.

Really looking forward to the Speaker of the House claiming to be unaware of the election results.
