As I explained in my Round Up this week, the admin screwed up and a handful of states were able to access SNAP funding to pay full benefits for their constituents. The gov has represented in court that they can’t get it back, so it’s become an equity issue open.substack.com/pub/asharang...

CPB tear gassed a baby

The Father Coughlin story is interesting because of parallels to the modern era. Wildly popular charismatic figure (30M listeners at peak when US had ~120M ppl). Private broadcasters tried to fact-check, pre-clear speeches, ban him while fans protested the censorship. FDR tried to stay out of it.

On X, Bovino has a comment

Trump admin tells states to “undo” food stamp benefits: “To the extent States sent full SNAP payment files for November 2025, this was unauthorized. Accordingly, States must immediately undo any steps taken to issue full SNAP benefits for November 2025.“

Counterpoints:
- The feds keep axing off-shore wind power projects
- The feds are attempting to make it vastly more difficult to put new solar on western lands
- The feds are doing nothing to fix the transmission bottlenecks, under the misguided idea that'll hurt incumbent fossil fuel plants

I’m in my lane when I say that you can’t call yourself religious if you are not feeding the hungry & clothing the naked & welcoming the stranger.

Period.

The current GOP lie is that they’re going to replace Obamacare with something better.

Bullshit. In all of the majorities they’ve had since Obamacare passed, they’ve never once tried to replace it.

They’ve tried to repeal it a whole bunch, but never actually make it better.

I am proud that my law firm is representing this amazing organization in this critical fight for the right to vote.

Trump isn’t going to do anything to address ridiculous prices, but he will let you mortgage a house for 50 years!

His banker buddies will LOVE that. A $400,000 house will cost you a million dollars over 50 years.

What’s next, 10 year auto loans? 🤢

Justice KBJ is a brilliant strategist. She is working the rules to compel timely review of the stay in the SNAP case by both the Circuit Court and by the Supreme Court. This is why knowing which SCOTUS justice has supervision of the Circuit you file in is essential.

Travelers, Confused and Concerned, Are Reconsidering Flying

Enjoy not flying and further harming the already damaged economy, MAGA voters.

Now you're racist and poorer and more inconvenienced.

Also, you still won't get rid of all the immigrants and people of color.

LOL YES

More armored, masked men pointing guns at people. (And seriously, don't with the "that's not a real gun." Sure is if it hits you in the face.)

“woke” is when you acknowledge that black people have contributed to the united states

I am fascinated by the growing number of conservatives who claim I should be ‘denaturalized & deported’ because I am apparently anti-American (based on what?); these same folks who hate many of the core freedoms & rights in the American Constitution, including the 1st & 14th Amendments. The irony.

You know it’s bad when even Frontier Airlines is telling you to have a backup plan

A tyrant doesn’t negotiate when compassion is the price.
He starves the people, then blames their hunger on the ones offering bread.

Let the record show, when given the choice between power and compassion, the GOP chose the lock over the key.

His "concept" of a Healthcare Plan is finally revealed. It involves eliminating the Insurance Industry & people purchasing their OWN, MUCH BETTER, HEALTHCARE. Unrelated, note his obsessive envy of Obama, historically rated 1 of our finest presidents, who he still believes was born in Kenya.

#sad 🤣

Senate Dems, do not cave. Ensuring healthcare premiums don’t surge is an 80-20 issue. They want to gut the ACA because their disdain for Obama far outweighs their concern for anyone’s health.

ICE is inflicting a lifetime of trauma on families. And it’s being carried out in the name of the United States of America.

Report of shots fired at federal agents during immigration enforcement in Little Village under investigation The Chicago Police Department responded to a call of shots fired at federal agents in the 2500 block of South Kedzie Avenue Saturday morning, police said.

No ballistic evidence. No one hit. No injuries. No damage from gunfire. Local cops can’t find a “crime scene.” DHS claims shots were fired. I don’t believe them. chicago.suntimes.com/immigration/...
