Walmart, McDonalds and Amazon are the largest employers of people who require SNAP assistance.

The CEOs earned between 18-40 million last year, 1000x their median employee income.

They took billions in profits, while their workers relied on SNAP to survive.

Wanna fix fraud and abuse?

Fix that.

He orders extrajudicial killings. He sent troops into our cities. He terrorizes citizens with ICE raids. He raised taxes without congressional approval. He has ruined American farmers and ranchers. He plans to starve the vulnerable. He demolished our house.

Remove him from office.

Canada is our beloved ally
America also will suffer with his insane tariffs

I mean, if you know that, if you acknowledge the paradigm-shattering truth of this development, what else needs to be said?

This man is manifestly unfit to be in free society, much less public life.

Historians of the future: Rest assured, millions of us know all this in real time. We are horrified, shocked, enraged, and ashamed. We are acting, in a thousand ways, to oppose it. This cannot, and will not, be how the United States ends. trib.al/0islLh9

Al Gore didnโ€™t hold back: The Trump admin is โ€œattacking the heart of truth,โ€ twisting facts like the Nazis did in the 1930s. From climate denial to rewriting the Ukraine war, itโ€™s all about powerโ€”not reality.
Gore warned the U.S. is under siegeโ€”and every former leader should speak out like he did.

Pope urges news agencies to stand as bulwark against lies, manipulation and post-truths Pope Leo XIV has encouraged international news agencies to stand firm as a bulwark against the โ€œancient art of lyingโ€ and manipulation.

โ€œWith your patient and rigorous work, you can act as a barrier against those who, through the ancient art of lying, seek to create divisions in order to rule by dividing,โ€ he said. โ€œYou can be a bulwark of civility against the quicksand of approximation and post-truth...โ€

Memo to Future Historians: This Is Fascism, and Millions of Us See It From Chicago to Portland, James Comey to Letitia James, and so much elseโ€”this is no longer America.

Great point from @mjtoma.bsky.social: Millions of us absolutely do see what's happening to the USA.

"We are horrified, shocked, enraged, and ashamed. We are acting, in a thousand ways, to oppose it. This cannot, and will not, be how the United States ends."
