Fear of your power? It’s basically witchcraft, in the best possible way!

BREAKING: Democrats just tried to pass a standalone bill to fund WIC & SNAP to make sure families don't go hungry during the Republican shutdown.

Republicans BLOCKED it. So Trump won't use emergency funds to keep SNAP running, and Republicans won't let any bills pass. Shameful.

I am working on building an interactive map of every county's SNAP data but several states are currently dark, so if anyone can get me clean county-level data with the FIPS IDs that would be amazing.

You can see the MVP I just published here: not-our-president.org

As we inch closer to November, Republicans seem content to let SNAP lapse. Over 40 million people, about 40% of whom are children, rely on SNAP, but the government is abandoning them to spend our money on demolishing the White House, buying planes for Kristi Noem, and bailing out Argentina.

NEJM and public health group are launching rival to CDC’s MMWR publication Two institutions are coming together to create an alternative to the CDC’s vaunted Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report

Sad and deeply frustrating that this is needed, but it is NEEDED!

Science-informed voices must step up!
