We could vote to fund SNAP, pay our troops, reopen government.
But Speaker Johnson knows once weβre back, Democrats will have the votes to swear in Adelita Grijalvaβand release the Epstein files.
Thatβs why weβre in recess.

Itβs not because of the shutdown. Thereβs reserves to pay for SNAP but Republicans want to starve folks in order to get Democrats to cave. @abc15.com

Two federal prosecutors have been placed on leave at the direction of the White House after filing a sentencing memo seeking 27 months in prison for a pardoned Jan. 6 rioter who brought illegal guns and ammunition to President Obama's house in 2023.
A mother of 8 was deported within 24 hours of reporting sexual harassment by an ICE contracto
She was following the rules & going through the process to get her green card
Someone working on behalf of ICE abused her.
She spoke out and was kicked out of the country.
Itβs retaliation & itβs wrong
It is a choice to give Argentina a $40 billion bailout
It is a choice to use ICE in a way which terrorizes US citizens
It is a choice to tear down the East Wing of the White House and spend $350 million on a ballroom
Just as it is a choice to starve 42 million Americans by refusing to fund SNAP
Imagine being a billionaire president βΒ demanding the DOJ pay you 230 million dollars βΒ while taking food away from 42 million people.

After January 6, 2021, Amazon, Microsoft, Google, and Comcast publicly pledged to stop donating to politicians who sought to undermine the legitimate results of the 2020 presidential election.
In 2025, these companies have stopped worrying about democracy and are buying Trump a ballroom.

It was right after Dean said that the consolidation of media ownership was a big problem and that he was going to break up the big media monopolies, that he was taken down, via media manipulation.
Makes one thinkβ¦
The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.
Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.
The people who need help are not the problem.
Itβs corporate greed. Itβs an unwillingness to pay a living wage.
Yeah, itβs just too late at this point. Sorry.
13th (Netflix) is a short documentary about the 13th Amendment, which we were taught βabolishedβ slavery. It did not.
That doc first aired in 2016; damn near a decade old at this point.
