Avelo facilitates evil.

This is amazing. And it’s truly the stuff of nightmares.

"As agents were driving away, they pointed a pepper ball gun and then a real gun at Declarant Chris Gentry, a combat veteran who was lawfully standing on the side of the road voicing his opposition as agents were driving by in their vehicles. Ex. 85 (Gentry Decl.) ¶¶ 6-10. The agent who pointed the real gun at Mr. Gentry’s face said “bang, bang,” and “you’re dead liberal.”

Every single concern his opponents ever had about him, even the most pessimistic and cynical, is proving to be true. Every single thing. He's exactly what we've been saying he is.

3 Scandals in 4 Days That Would Define Any Other Presidency During the second Trump administration, corruption scandals that would typically define a presidency receive a day or two of coverage.

1. Last week, there were 3 Trump corruption scandals in 4 days that would define any other presidency.

Most people are probably not even AWARE of all three scandals.

The cowardice of Big Law extends beyond the handful of firms that have become Trump’s collaborators. Many more are simply hiding and hoping not to be noticed.

Food insecurity is ALWAYS a political choice. Famine is ALWAYS manmade. People go hungry because of other people’s decisions. We have more than enough food for everyone, and enormous amounts of it are wasted—literally thrown in the garbage—on purpose.

70% of working age SNAP recipients work full time. The companies should pay them a living wage! SNAP is corporate welfare.

Also let us note that nutrition programs like SNAP were started as a matter of national security after the enormous number of men who were medically unfit for military service in WW1 due to the effects of malnutrition.

Not only is it going to be a hunger crisis, it's going to be a farm crisis. All those gallons of milk bought from dairy farmers, all the produce, all the on sale ground beef and packs of chicken that are paid for by SNAP are subsidies to farmers who don't qualify for commodities subsidies.

letting SNAP expire right before thanksgiving and right as health care premiums skyrocket, on paper, seems like the kind of thing destined to be the downfall of a regime, setting aside that it’s gonna be a very thin christmas for a lot of people because of tariffs

FYI: it’s, uh, *not nothing* that the head of an entire Christian denomination — here Rev. Karen Georgia A. Thompson of the United Church of Christ — issued a statement decrying DHS agents for shooting one of her pastors in the face with a pepper round, adding, “No one is safe from tyranny."

Trump’s orders unnerved many in the industry and appear to have discouraged some large firms from taking on cases they would otherwise have backed, lawyers say. That has dried up a formerly reliable supply of help from large law offices for people and institutions challenging government policies. The American Bar Association, which joined or filed four lawsuits against the Trump administration, “has experienced difficulty finding previously willing law firms to represent it,” its attorneys wrote in court papers. In one case, the organization said, it was unable to join a lawsuit challenging the administration because it could not get attorneys in time.

We have reached the point where the *American Bar Association* cannot find attorneys willing to represent them in litigation against the Trump administration.

Folks are talking about this, and YES. Every Democratic politician and every Democratic Party HQ should be gearing up to GIVE PEOPLE FOOD NEXT WEEK.

To all who wryte storyes & poemes, to everyone who doth wryte scriptes & screenplayes, to those who make art of all kyndes, and to those who designe and performe yn daunse, and theatre -- thanke yow. Whethir you make for a few friendes or an audience of millions, thanke yow. You helpe us all.

Every one deserves to eat. It’s that simple.

think we're going to need a bigger ffs

"Tell your doctor if you have-" no. He's the doctor. He should tell me. That's what I pay him for

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?

Their solution.

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

Also, field pumpkins are garbage for eating. They're watery nothing. You'll get yourself sick for no reason, and it won't even taste good.

GOP embrace of the SNAP thing is explainable by that old interview with Craig T Nelson where he decried government assistance saying "I've been on food stamps and welfare, did anyone help me out? No."

the people on top are simply evil, but their supporters live in a fantasy world

This was also his strategy for Covid — just stop testing.
