About half of what it was going to cost to fully fund SNAP in November during the shutdown.

Trump just said some federal employees “don’t deserve to be taken care of.” That’s not leadership, it’s cruelty. Hundreds of thousands of Americans are working or waiting without pay, and the president seems proud of it. We need a leader who reopens government, not one who weaponizes it.

An artificial heart for children with congenital heart defects was almost finished. Families had waited for years it. Then, Trump canceled billions in grants for universities — including the grant for this device. The cruelty is endless. www.npr.org/2025/10/09/n...

What a dumb ass! And an insurrectionist 🙄

It’s been this way since Obama was elected president and Republicans led by Mitch McConnell started openly cheating and bragging about it.

Senate Confirms ‘Sharpiegate’ Meteorologist to Lead NOAA www.nytimes.com/2025/10/07/u... What does Trump do? 👉🏼look under every rock to find the worst possible candidate for running an agency? 🤨👇🏼

Besides the idiot fuckery of PUBLICLY ANNOUNCING that ALL MILITARY LEADERS will be in ONE PLACE AT THE SAME TIME, this is what the speech is about???? What a pathetic, condescending, expensive, dick-waving party. #FascismIsHere www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

@cnn.com "… extraordinary 161-page rebuke of President Donald Trump, ruling that the administration impermissibly chilled the protected political speech of university professors and students by targeting non-citizens on college campuses who have spoken out in support of Palestinians" 👍

I made a meme! #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles Another headline-grabbing distraction. By sending troops, DJT shifts attention away, AGAIN, from the financial and operational investigations that could expose powerful people and institutions connected to Epstein. It's not just a distraction — it’s a message.

"When politicians say 'able-bodied,' it’s a roundabout way of downplaying the challenges faced by people who have been left behind, yet deemed capable enough to contribute to capitalism. But their language fails to hide the true message: The state does not want to help you."

Comedy. Criticism. Commentary. All protected speech. Pulling Jimmy Kimmel off the air is an outrageous act of censorship.

AHIP, the country’s biggest health insurance association said its members will continue to cover updated COVID and flu vaccines through the end of 2026. AHIP covers over 200M people & includes Blue Cross and Blue Shield, Centene, Aetna, Elevance, Humana, Kaiser Permanente, Molina, and Cigna.

The union representing the musicians from Jimmy Kimmel’s band releases a statement calling the FCC’s pressure on Disney “state censorship.”

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

WTF.. is wrong with these crazy people

Feed hungry people of all ages. Provide clean running water to everyone including the indigenous Americans who have none (this just 😡). Welcome immigrants who are escaping cruelty, violence, wars, collapsed economies. Just be kind.

In case you thought that more sexism and misogyny were what’s needed to make America great…

No, I don’t wish violence on anyone. But let’s not make Charlie Kirk into a saint. He was a mean-spirited hater. Let’s decry assassinations, but save our tears for those worthy of mourning.

Anyone asking senators who voted to confirm the wholly anti-qualified Kash Patel how they’re feeling about their vote today?

Gaslighting The American People!

Wow.

What Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told the Senate Finance Committee as its members considered his nomination:

However evil you think this is, it’s worse: “The A.I. companies selected to oversee the program would have a strong financial incentive to deny claims. Medicare plans to pay them a share of the savings generated from rejections.”

The new head of the CDC, Jim O’Neill, has no degree in science or medicine, and has pushed unproven treatments for COVID like ivermectin. This is so incredibly dangerous.

RULE ABOUT AMERICAN FLAGS: If you burn the fabric part, you're looking at jail. But it you use the pole part to assault a police officer, you get a presidential pardon, praise, and some cash.

Never before in our history has one man exercised such unbridled discretion affecting the lives of so many of us, while simultaneously preventing others — Congress, the courts, the American people — from having a say or even knowing what he’s going to do next. This is what dictatorship looks like.

Losing institutional memory and expertise means weakening our frontline defense. For 80 years, CDC has been a beacon of health protection for the United States and the world. That beacon is now in grave danger of being extinguished, endangering all of our health.

This is unacceptable.

Another useful graphic. It’s the guns.
