Rep. Adam Smith: "This country has not agreed to have the death penalty for drug smuggling. If we want to have that policy conversation, we can have that policy conversation, but the president has unilaterally decided that lethal force is going to be applied. It's an enormous expansion of power."

I don't give a shit if people on SNAP are buying cookies. I think they deserve MORE money than they're getting.

Usha is part of the problem. Look up who she clerked for. She has supported these men since day one and now sheโ€™s lying in the bed she made.

A tweet from Robert Reich states:
โ€œThe richest man on earth owns X.
The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros.
The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.
The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.
See the problem here?โ€

Kerivoula picta, the painted bat, looks like a figment of Halloween's imagination, but is real. Very sadly they're endangered, but the fact they exist is a pretty magical thing to think about today: www.batcon.org/bat/kerivoul...

If republicans are able-bodied and getting government assistance, they should be subject to a work requirement, no?

The AI industry doesnโ€™t want you to know that massive job displacement is coming. They donโ€™t want government to do anything to slow it or protect workers from it because AI leaders are planning to become trillionaires (not kidding) by destroying your jobs.

BREAKING: A judge just issued a court order in our case requiring the USDA to use contingency funds to keep SNAP going during the ongoing federal government shutdown.

The White House must now let the court know by EOD Monday how they plan to move forward with funding SNAP.
