New York, a Christian state, is following Jesus’s admonition and feeding its poor. Arkansas, how about you? Gov. Sanders, you’ve got lots of money.

Today, we honor the men and women who put on the uniform and chose service over self.

Veterans don't ask for praise. They ask us to keep our promises. To stand by them when the battles are over. To care for their families. To fight for the values they risked everything to defend.

Please, write it. Although it needs to be about how it’s supposed to work, because right now it’s broken. I have the same temptation but my book would be about what good government is.

New: Sens. King, Shaheen, Hassan led negotiations on a deal that will have enough Democratic support to pass in the Senate, I'm told.

This is the package:

- CR thru Jan 30
- A vote on a ACA bill by a December, on a DEM bill
- Minibus WHICH INCLUDES reversal of shutdown RIFs and back pay and protections against them happening in the future
PLUS SNAP is funded through the fiscal year 26

Dems have spent the past two months saying they're fighting to address the crisis of spiking healthcare costs and now they're caving for a deal that does nothing to address healthcare costs Β―\_(ツ)_/Β―

The Democratic leadership can be divided into fighters and cowards. We don’t elect them to back down.

The epitome of bad public policy. It’s clear Arkansas wants to make its public schools even worse and if you can’t afford a private school? Too bad for you.

This is incredible and not in a good way. Every single thing this administration does is awful.

Biden’s two biggest mistakes: trying to run again in 24 and supporting genocide.

It is one of the most serious questions of our time. So little critical thinking on the part of millions of Americans that they took The Apprentice as truth and only heard what they wanted to hear.

Dear Walmart,

Consideeing you have more employees on SNAP than any other company β€” instead of simply having a β€˜cheaper’ Thanksgiving bundle, how about giving your underpaid employees who must rely on SNAP for survival, one for free? It’s the least you can do. And I stress, the LEAST…

β€” America

I live in a very small town and I know what keeps small town grocery stores open:

SNAP.

Let’s not forget that THIS is how Republicans govern. A party that believes government is bad will govern badly. Masked thugs dragging citizens off the streets and terrorizing the public. Stopping food stamps. Stopping health care access. Now stopping planes. Register to vote. Get ready for 2026.
