USDA blames Democrats for potential SNAP benefits lapse in new message: 'The well has run dry' The federal agency's website features a banner that says no benefits will be issued on Nov. 1.

This is such bullshit

This video from Portland is a metaphor for what is going on in America. ICE trying so hard to get Americans to cross a line and if they don't, dragging them across the line and violently attacking.

Those who aren't terrified by the authoritarianism are either the perps or they aren't paying attention.

A picture of two identical items one costing $6.99 the other costing $7.99. Both made in China at the top it says Trump did that underneath the picture. It says a little over 14% increase. Tariffs anyone?

I bought these just now and because the new price is higher, but I was buying two I got them both for the lower price. 14% increase. Thanks Trump.

This is an object lesson in the importance of force and violence in politics. ICE is able to flaunt the law because they're willing to use both. Until members of Congress start showing up with breaching teams and armed security, the law is irrelevant. Just a piece of paper.

No money for Medicaid or SNAP or museums or schools or sidewalks or gun violence prevention or art or libraries.

Always money for war.

No. There is no โ€œmoderate positionโ€ between racism/fascism and decency. Fuck that moderate bullshit, and the fascism-lite horse it rode in on.

Texas Used DOJ's Concerns to Justify Redistricting. Now It Says They're Off Base. Read more here.

NEW: After saying it needed to redistrict due to constitutional concerns raised by the DOJ about its congressional map, Texas now argues in a new court filing that those concerns are unfounded.

ICE memo outlines plan to deport migrants to countries where they are not citizens The dramatic shift in policy could result in thousands of immigrants being deported to places where they lack family ties or even a common language.

Breaking news: Federal immigration officers may deport immigrants with as little as six hoursโ€™ notice to countries other than their own, even without assurances that the arrivals will be safe from persecution or torture, a top official said.

A friend of mine who is a very well connected military person, and someone I've been in combat with, who lives in Florida talked to the national guard commander of the unit that is guarding the swamp prison and morale is low... his soldiers are being eaten alive by mosquitos. It's bad.

Our protests should not be in front of courthouses and federal buildings but instead they should be held surrounding the corporate headquarters of news outlets for they are to blame for the normalization of Trump and his insanity.

The people who lost children and other loved ones in the Texas floods are owed honest answers from officials. They should be told why flash flood warnings issued hours earlier were not conveyed to people in the path of the water. They donโ€™t need more prayers from politicians. They need answers.
