They’re Losing Control. And they know it!

The president posts batshit insane, self-contradictory, harmful crap online daily, and the media is incentivized to not cover it like a scandal.

When all this is over we’ve got to restructure media/reporting/journalism entirely.

The president is abusing his office and bullying hungry Americans. Putting food on the table is not a political bargaining chip. It’s our responsibility to hold him accountable. We will continue to do everything in our power to ensure that people continue to receive their SNAP benefits, and that includes the benefits that went out on Friday.

This morning, the president ordered states to not distribute full SNAP benefits for November, and demanded that states “undo” any benefits payments that have already been sent to working families for food.

Read our statement in response.

Good reason not to watch...

Here’s what the shutdown is really about:

Robert Reich Is Your Grocery Store Ripping You Off?

Inflation is on the rise — particularly at the grocery store.

One big reason why?

Minimal competition opens the door to maximal price-gouging — and the opportunity to pull shady tricks like this. https://youtu.be/ad5GfgrPkYo?si=iDRiVN9_TsjGsD9k

If I were @schumer.senate.gov, I would not agree to help Republicans fund this regime on the "promise" of an ACA vote at a later date. It didn't work the last time when they promised to fund DC. It won't work this time either. The House won't touch it.

Senate leader says a potential shutdown deal is coming together but there's no guarantee of success The Senate's top Republican says a potential deal is “coming together” on the government shutdown, but there's no guarantee it would end an impasse now stretching to 40 days.

REPUBLICAN SHUTDOWN
NO DEAL UNLESS ACA
IS FUNDED & WE GET FULL SNAP BENEFITS

'It was terrifying': Toxic hammerhead worm spotted across North Texas The hammerhead worm is popping up in counties throughout the Metroplex and experts say it’s a real threat to plants, animals, and even people.

Officials warn of dangerous 'hammerhead worm': 'Don't kill it, don't squish it, don't cut it up'
Sightings of a creepy & toxic invasive species in North TX have officials on high alert.

At 12-15" in length, they make for an unsettling sight described as "demonic."

I can’t believe it’s come to this.

What do you call a pair of slimeballs?

WELKER: Should the 300,000 Oklahomas who rely on ACA subsidies be prepared for their costs to skyrocket?

LANKFORD: We're trying to find a way to be able to help

(That's a yes!)

Ask him why so many air traffic controllers are retiring at once. Ask him if it has anything to do with Reagan firing 11K union strikers in 1981 and having to replace them all at once. Ask him how the mass firings this year will impact us the same way 40 years from now. Ask him, Jake.

Schiff: "The president -- 'I'm going out to play golf.' One thing that is so shocking to me is that they're appealing to the Supreme Court for the right to cut off food from people. Who does that? Who works so hard to cut food from people who need it right now? The cruelty is part of the policy."
