Walmart, McDonalds and Amazon are the largest employers of people who require SNAP assistance.

The CEOs earned between 18-40 million last year, 1000x their median employee income.

They took billions in profits, while their workers relied on SNAP to survive.

Wanna fix fraud and abuse?

Fix that.

FWIW, social democracies like Norway, Sweden etc have big businesses. They have billionaires.

They also have universal healthcare, quality free education & child care, and programs to curb poverty and food insecurity.

How?

Their billionaires pay taxes and don’t control the government.

Laura Loomer is now credentialed to cover the Pentagon The far-right activist has repeatedly criticized defense officials on her website and social media accounts while boasting of her close ties to President Donald Trump.

Because, of course. The more unqualified the better for the Convicted Felon Donald Trump regime.

Really worth reading the entire 60 minutes interview transcript but admit this part got me laughing out loud.

Grijalva: I do think that Speaker Johnson misplayed his hand.

There are people all over this nation who were out there with signs that said, “Swear her in.” They wouldn’t have even known about me otherwise.

Thank you for highlighting how corrupt the system you’re protecting really is.

This is brilliant

If Prop 50 fails — we’ll never put a check on Trump, who just gave $40 billion to Argentina while raising funds for his gilded ballroom instead of continuing SNAP benefits for struggling Americans.

Every day, more details come out that show just how deep this plot to protect the wealthy and powerful goes.

They are being shielded from justice. Rep. Thomas Massie and I are fighting to bring them to justice and release the files.

EUGENE DANIELS: “You said diversity can be a weakness. What did you mean?”

CUOMO: “Diversity can be a weakness if you have antipathy among groups, Jonathan.”

EUGENE: “I’m Eugene.” 🤦🏻‍♂️

If you’re in CALIFORNIA, Prop 50 is everything. A YES vote tells the country we’re not giving up without a fight.

The thing about Johnson not swearing in Grijalva is that’s it a test for 2026.

If you think they will accept an outcome they don’t like, they will just Grijalva it.

So what’s the plan when the GOP says “we ain’t leaving, fuck you, make us.”

Because that IS what they are going to say.

NEWS: A federal judge in Rhode Island has released her written order demanding the Trump admin use emergency funds to pay SNAP food benefits. The court gave the gov until Nov 4 to ensure payments are made and says if the contingency fund runs out, they must continue to fund SNAP via other means.

Newsom: I cannot wait for all the punditry. Historic victories all across the United States of America. Proposition 50 winning by double digits. A new governor of New Jersey, a new governor in Virginia.

I’ll end as I began: thank you for giving a damn.

Obama: "The weird videos of a US president with a crown on his head flying a fighter jet & dumping poop on American citizens - that's not even worth booing about. Because all of that is a distraction from the fact that your situation, your life has not gotten better. They do it so you won't notice"

Ouch 🚽

What he said: 💯 🎯

I've given my new Senator a lot of shit on here. But I don't think anyone with power has laid out the stakes of what we're facing as clearly as she does right here.

And if she's saying this, it's because she feels she must.

Paxlovid from Pfizer costs $15 to make and now retails for $1500.

Insane

Today, families are waking up to no SNAP benefits and seeing that their healthcare premiums will skyrocket.

Republicans talked about making things affordable––they lied. In the wealthiest country in the world, we can and should make sure everyone has food to eat and care they need.

A kindness that will always be remembered.. 🎃

Well done 🎃
