Did you know that over 1.3M active duty service members and veterans rely on SNAP benefits to feed themselves and their families?

Now you know.

The government shutdown keeps snarling air travel. Officials say it could get worse A dozen facilities saw air traffic control shortages on Monday, delaying flights at several airports. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy blamed "a slight tick-up in sick calls" due to the shutdown.

Let’s try this again it’s a new day. I’m bewildered that no one has answered.

Dear MAGA: why would Donald consider pardoning Maxwell, a sex trafficker for Epstein? Again a reminder, Biden is not president and you guys called for the release of the files repeatedly. So… why?

Mike Johnson says he'll swear in @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social as soon as she wants. Okay, so how about today?

Sounds like the rich take away from taxpayers and then blame immigrants.

This is great. The absurdity of this moment captured. Make it go viral.

Someone should start asking why we’re hearing and seeing Stephen Miller so much all of a sudden.

This is Adelita Grijalva.

She was elected to Congress two weeks ago, officially making her the final vote needed to force the release of the Epstein files.

She has still not been sworn in because Mike Johnson refuses to do so.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

This is a welcoming account. 🏳️‍🌈

So if anti-fascists are Trump’s political enemies, what does that make Trump?

David Letterman is right: you can't appease a tyrant.

STEWART: “Comedy doesn’t change the world, but it’s a bellwether— we’re the banana peel in the coal mine… authoritarians are the threat to comedy, music, art, thought… progress.”

Nailed it.

This is unreal.

Jesus would be hanging out with the people Brian Kilmeade wants the state to murder.

They do not follow God

Pritzker: It appears they are amassing ICE officers… It’s been reported that about 300 officers are planning to come in and do what they did in LA — terrorize neighborhoods and cause mayhem. Their plan is to create enough chaos on the ground that troops will have to be called in

It’s odd that the president would need to give an Oval Office address about something as arbitrary (albeit idiotic) as moving Space Force or renaming the DoD. I have to assume he’s doing it because he knows the world thinks he’s hiding.

Good morning. Trump is protecting Epstein files. The confederacy lost and they were traitors, mRNA vaccines are the future, cops shouldn’t wear masks, Trump cut taxes for the rich and ripped benefits from the poor.

Have a weekend

Smart! Raven loves winning Tic Tac Toe.

HUMANS: omg poor Sisyphus what a horrible tortuous existence let’s do it to bees though this honey is 🔥

"Dershowitz, along with Clinton independent counsel Kenneth Starr, defended Epstein. Starr was later fired from a plush job as president at Baylor University, where one victim’s lawsuit alleged that during his reign little was done about fifty-two rapes, including five gang rapes...."

House Democrats send letter to Fox News demanding answers on edits to Trump’s 2024 Epstein comments | CNN Business Top Democrats on the oversight committee say Fox presented Trump’s comments about the so-called Epstein files in a way that both misled the public and distorted his position.

I had been wondering how we make Fox's role in the Esptein coverup visible.

This, from @robertgarcia.bsky.social, is a good start.
