SNAP is not the reason your taxes are high.

SNAP recipients don’t need to β€œjust go get a job”.

Most of them work. The rest are disabled, elderly, children or caregivers.

People need & deserve assistance

Your taxes fund wars and tax cuts for the ultra rich

Be mad about that

If members of the United States military are truly being paid their salaries by a private individual, the American people should know who that individual is. Now.

This is located in the Lakeview neighborhood of Chicago, close to Fullerton and Sheffield. It's a densely populated area near DePaul University. I'm pleased to see the community standing up against these despicable individuals.

Our military is being paid by an anonymous donor.

Our WH East Wing was demolished for a ballroom - paid for by donors.

These aren’t acts of benevolence or patriotism.

This is the oligarchy assuming control, insidiously becoming part of how we function.

Every American should reject it.

Blue state governments should start hosting lists of identified ICE agents on their own websites if Facebook and the like are going to take them down

I haven’t seen anyone talk about how Jane Doe - an Epstein survivor - just sued the Bank of New York Mellon for funding Epstein and failing to file a Suspicious Activity Report. A Mellon heir is the one who gave $130M to pay the troops. Seems bribey to me.

Today, the White House Press Secretary told the country that this ridiculous damn ballroom is β€œthe president’s main priority”…not reopening the government, not lowering the cost of groceries, not lowering the cost of housing, not lowering the cost of healthcare….building a ballroom

BREAKING: Per new reporting, ICE recruits have shown up to training without full vetting under Kristi Noem. One was discovered to have a history of robbery and battery related to domestic violence while already in training.

I want more people to care that SNAP benefits are being cut off on November 1. 40% of SNAP beneficiaries are children. This is callous and vile.

learned recently that the guy who wrote "The Night Before Christmas," clement clarke moore, also wrote a takedown of thomas jefferson's proto-scientific racism in "Notes on the State of Virginia," basically accusing him and others of making it up to justify slavery. which, that's right.

I am completely awestruck by the ease with which Mike Johnson lies on a daily basis. I'll never understand how such a transparently fraudulent "man of faith" can live with themselves. Life is too short to be that phony.

used to be that solving puzzles that open portals to hell was something to avoid, but at this point how much worse could it be? worth at least day tripping into the portal, check out the housing market there, give it a look-see

Post from WH about Chicago "in chaos," showing scene from another state.

A terrific AFP fact check uses reverse image searches to expose how a White House video took scenes from Florida, Texas, South Carolina and Nebraska and lied that they showed "Chicago is in chaos."

Today, I convened a group of former military generals and veterans to hear perspectives on deploying troops in American cities.

Their commitment is to our nation. That’s why they’re speaking out against what the President's doing as uncalled-for, unprecedented, and un-American.

Every time someone makes me read something Peter Thiel said it’s like β€œScrooge McDuck is Jesus Christ and Huey, Dewey, and Louie are Gabriel, Raphael, and Uriel and Daisy is Mary Magdalene and that’s why women voting has lowered American sperm count.”

Pritzker: "If the Constitution means anything -- and I guess we all are questioning that right now -- the Insurrection Act cannot be invoked ... they just want troops on the ground because they want to militarize especially blue cities in blue states."

BREAKING: Venezuelan opposition leader MarΓ­a Corina Machado has won the Nobel Peace Prize, winning recognition as a woman β€œwho keeps the flame of democracy burning amid a growing darkness.”

She was lauded for being a β€œkey, unifying figure" in the once deeply divided opposition to the Maduro regime.

Sometimes we need a moment, but if you tune out completely, they win. Fascism doesn’t need your support, just your silence.

Rutgers TPUSA officers slam petition to shut down chapter, β€˜Blatantly defamatory’ Alexander Di Filippo accuses Turning Point USA of inciting violence against Antifa handbook author Mark Bray.

The Rutgers TPUSA chapter β€” whose characterization of a historian there as a β€œoutspoken, well-known antifa member” led to death threats and moving his family to Europe β€” think *other* people are being β€œblatantly defamatory.”

Not them, though. They’re doing politics the right way.
