Medicare for All would save $450B a year.

Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.

Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.

It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.

Republicans are still trying to pass the SAVE Act—a bill that would make it harder to vote and disenfranchise millions of Americans. Join @redistrictingaction.org and tell your member of Congress to vote no: act.redistrictingaction.org/a/natl-saveact-cte

This made me ugly cry 😭

I will never claim that he was perfect…every president in my lifetime has pissed me off for one reason or another.
But…dammit, I’m so tired of the constant feeling of uneasiness and uncertainty 😔

I know you've heard that a federal judge ordered the release of 5 year old Liam Conejo Arias and his father, and that they're now home.

But did you look at the judge's order?

It's less than 2.5 pages and well worth a minute. "Jesus wept."

At least 16 files have disappeared from the DOJ webpage for documents related to Jeffrey Epstein The Justice Department’s webpage for documents related to sex offender Jeffrey Epstein is missing at least 16 of its files a day after they were released.

BREAKING: At least 16 files from the Epstein release disappeared from DOJ's webpage, including a photo of Trump, with no explanation.

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen.

Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

So angry and sad. This shouldn't have happened.

Deaths caused by Funding Discontinuation 187,151 Adult Deaths 389,227 Child Deaths

credible modeling from impactcounter.com shows that trump and musk have killed nearly 600,000 people with their illegal cuts to date.

nearly 400,000 of them were children.

With millions at risk of losing SNAP in the coming days, a reminder: hunger doesn't happen in isolation. When food assistance disappears, families use rent money to eat. Then come evictions and homelessness.

Housing, food, healthcare—it's all connected. Cut one thread and the whole thing unravels.

So if we don't track it, food insecurity just goes away, right?

George was just trying to get to work.

ICE pepper-sprayed him, dragged him from his car, locked him in a detention center, and placed him on suicide watch. He even missed his young daughter’s birthday in the process.

This man is a veteran and American citizen. Don't look away.

The following is REAL footage from Portland, 2025. Viewer discretion is advised.

Giant squid fan here. This is so amazing!

After enacting the largest SNAP cuts in history, Trump is now scrapping the federal government's annual report on hunger in America.

The utter cruelty of this regime knows no bounds.

You’re the FBI...

You CAN subpoena the estate of Jeffrey Epstein.

A “Striking” Trend: After Texas Banned Abortion, More Women Nearly Bled to Death During Miscarriage A new ProPublica data analysis adds to the mounting evidence that abortion bans have made the common experience of first-trimester miscarriage far more dangerous.

More women have nearly bled to death during miscarriage under Texas’ abortion ban.

Experts say the trend paints a troubling picture of the harms of unnecessary delays in care. “This is striking,” one doctor said. “The trend is very clear.”

What We Lose, We Lose Together To my colleagues at USAID, your absence is a wound to the nation, your service endures, and your voices are needed now to sustain our fragile democracy.

🇺🇸 September 2 is not just a date. It is the day America cast aside its servants abroad. My brothers and sisters at USAID you built schools healed wounds defended democracy. Today you are erased but your devotion endures. This nation cannot stand without you.

US withdraws from key UN human rights report, draws criticism from rights advocates The United States will not participate in a U.N. review of its human rights record, officials said, a move that rights advocates called a worrying retreat from Washington's global engagement on rights and justice issues.

The Trump regime has pulled the US out of the UN Human Rights Universal Process Review. This is chilling.

This review happens every 4-5 years for each country in the UN. No country has ever pulled out of the review. Until now.

I remember the last time the US had its UPR...

National guard troops lounging outside a Krispy Kreme

Dearest Martha,

The National Guard stand solemn watch at the Krispy Kreme tonight. I cannot tell if they defend the people from the donuts, or the donuts from the people. Powdered sugar hangs in the air like cannon smoke. Jensen took a hot coffee to the face, he may never recover.

Yours in glaze,
