An estimated 15.7 million workers use SNAP. It’s a lifeline for those in low-wage jobs.

Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker.

Don’t be angry at workers for using food stamps.

Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.

With his trademark mix of humor & relevant commentary, John Oliver delivers a lesson in government-run Medicare versus the insurance company-run alternative called Medicare Advantage.

Any American over 60YO should watch this episode.

Why?

He has been a crook his entire life.

We are all so sick of him.

Or, your mom.

Just preordered

I got mine on Amazon.

It is so infuriating that of all the honorable, intelligent and decent people in this country, this is what republicans came up with.

I wonder if it is like the dread a lot of Americans feel with this administration at the helm.

I know. Don’t they realize how weak and pathetic they sound.

Thank you Portland we need this.

Context matters

From the front lines of the Portland War Zone.

Same.

Our tax dollars can’t go to health care, but this ineptitude and embarrassment is fully funded. All brought to you by a reality TV administration looking for clicks and Fox News talking points.

I’ve got this reoccurring thought that Mark Kelly may be the only democrat that can pull in independents and non maga republicans in our current situation.

I was so excited today. I thought this was an obituary — turns out I was very wrong. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Here ya go 😄

And expensive.

How and why did America do this? It’s one ridiculous episode after another.

It grieves me to see people I’ve known for years (some as far back as the Jesus Movement of the 1970s) seduced by a mean-spirited culture-war Christianity that is but a perverse caricature of the authentic faith formed around Jesus of Nazareth. Yes, it grieves me terribly.

Closing airspace to deportation flights would be...wow

There's some excellent ideas in here and I'm really glad they're thinking about them!

a photo of Gavin Newsom (white man with blue jacket and white collared shirt) but with Donald Trump's hair and hairstyle with orange spray tan on his face. he is being interviewed on Fox News by someone with their back turned to the camera with a chyron that reads "BREAKING NEWS: CA GOVERNOR GAVIN NEWSOM UNVEILS NEW LOOK TO WIN OVER TRUMP SUPPORTERS"

I’m watching Pete and JD giggling like school boys. What a disgrace this administration is.
