In New Jersey, a single mother struggled to figure out how to feed her two young sons with $50.
In Oklahoma, a 61-year-old woman questioned whether driving to a food pantry was worth the gas money.
And in Colorado, a woman grabbed food from a Walmart dumpster.

All the pearl-clutching about Zohran Mamdani--by right-wingers who elected a half-senile old TV star president--is very amusing. For once the shoe is on the other foot.

I told someone I would be safe in Texas because I'm a blonde white woman so everyone will just assume i'm MAGA and leave me alone, but now I can't stop imagining getting discovered because my makeup is too good and I don't look 50 when I'm 35 from the evil prematurely aging me

October 27th, is a separate Day of the Dead recognized as a day for people to honor the memory of their beloved pets who have sadly passed away.
The main holiday is held on Nov 2nd, for humans. However, October 27th has become recognized by many as an additional day dedicated to remembering pets.

Someone want to tell Mikey here that 86% of all SNAP benefits go to households that include a child, an elderly person, or a person with disabilities?
Or that almost 40% of SNAP recipients are children?
And that Whites account for 37% of SNAP recipients?

If I were running the DNC, there would be Democratic Party sponsored food relief banks across the country right now that specifically welcomed anyone regardless of party affiliation.
Along with the food, there could be voter registration and links to runforsomething.net

I donโt really think the framers intended for a president to have the power to slap a tariff on products from a particular country because he didnโt like a TV commercial they ran about him, but I suppose it is presently up to the Supreme Ct to decide how far the Mad King can go.

This is the most obscenely wealthy, grotesquely cruel, offensively under qualified and incompetent, outrageously & blatantly corrupt, callously indifferent, brazenly self-serving, shamelessly deceitful administration in our countryโs history. A hollow gold-plated autocracy destined to collapse.

When the president is destroying national landmarks, murdering fishermen, raising prices because he's angry over a Reagan video, and kidnapping parents in front of their crying children is probably not an ideal time to have a lazy, completely incompetent legislative branch perpetually on vacation.

Image of the mechanical ladder outside the Louvre
Text below says WENN'S MAL WIEDER SCHNELL GEHEN MUSS (When you need to move fast)
Underneath is more German text which translates as "The Bรถcker Agilo transports your treasures weighing up to 400kg at 42m/min - quiet as a whisper."
The German company that makes the mechanical ladder used in the Louvre heist has used the image to advertise, with the text 'When you need to move fast'

WOW: The White House says the president's MAIN PRIORITY is his BALLROOM. SNAP is ending. Subsidies for health care are gong to double and in some instances quadruple plan premiums. The government is shut down. The cost of living is through the roof. And his priority is his ballroom.

Itโs far from the most important thing, morally right now, or in terms of the human stakes, but the ballroom thing is really breaking my brain.

Theyโre distracting you with talk about healthcare premiums while a dictator runs wild...snatching Americans off the streets, looting hundreds of millions, and tearing down the White House. At this rate, healthcare will be the least of Americaโs worries.

Chris Murphy: "There's a lot of history that has taken place in the East Wing & it was just destroyed without any conversation in the public, without any consent of Congress. It's absolutely illegal.

Two days ago, he took a shit on the American people. Today, he began demolishing the Peopleโs House. Thatโs all he does. He shits on people, and he destroys things. Bcuz heโs a horrible person.
