Johnson: Snap benefits is a unique situation. I got a summary of the legal analysis…the contingency funds are not legally available to cover the benefits right now

"When Trump announced a $20 billion bailout for Argentina this month, Larry Ory, 86, a farmer in Earlham, Iowa, could hardly believe it, especially after boatloads of Argentine soybeans began shipping to China, a once-critical customer for Mr. Ory's family..." www.nytimes.com/2025/10/26/u...

New investigation w/ @invisibae.bsky.social: Baltimore County has the worst racial disparities in traffic stops throughout Maryland. Officers accused of profiling are quickly exonerated despite issuing 70-89% of their tickets to Black drivers. Read more: www.thebanner.com/community/cr...

1) we’ve had the productive capacity to produce food for every living person on this planet 2) we have the logistics to deliver these to every person on this planet 3) we have ideologies and philosophies to know that’s good That we don’t is a choice. And a moral failure.

Well, this is total BS! #arresttrump

Food bank director: “for every meal that a food bank provides, the SNAP program provides nine. There’s no way we can meet that gap.”

JB Pritzker: “Not everything is a both sides issue. When someone’s breaching the Constitution, it needs to be called out. There’s not two sides to it. When there’s fact and fiction, you don’t present those equally”

TEN YEARS AGO WRITER: "How about a novel with a crazy president who can't stop talking about his new $300 million gold ballroom while millions of Americans go without food." AGENT: "That's a little heavy-handed. No politician would be that stupid. Come up with a more subtle, believable scenario."

I see that the United States' peculiar brand of Christian Nationalism includes judging the poor for needing SNAP benefits (judging is something Jesus said *not to* do) but not helping the poor with SNAP benefits (helping the poor is something Jesus told them *to* do).

What.

47 won't give away "his" money to his enemies. Petty bastard.

We have a murderer and felon in the WH. Our Secretary of Defense is also a murderer. We must get enablers like Susan Collins out of the Senate.

I asked Microsoft PR about this—specially the DHS using Halo IP to recruit for ICE—and the company declined to comment.

Why doesn't Trump use some of the $5 billion he's made off his Crypto grift during the past year to give government workers funding and invest in Food Stamps so his base doesn't starve? If he can accept $130 million from Mellon, hey, give some back to Americans, right?

Honestly at some point you have to start doing psyops with these people: Have Obama announce that he will seek a third term tomorrow. Then watch all the con law “scholars” and Fix News MELT DOWN trying to explain why he can’t but Trump can. (It’s like Newsom taking over his social media persona)

Venezuela claims it has captured CIA-linked mercenaries plotting a “false flag” attack to justify US military action.

California goes supersonic. Thanks in part to California's world-class talent and leadership in advanced manufacturing, Lockheed Martin has created a new supersonic X-59 jet designed to quiet sonic booms and possibly open the door to a new future for commercial air travel.

70% of working age SNAP recipients work full time. The companies should pay them a living wage! SNAP is corporate welfare.

You won't believe who's covering the DOD "Modern authoritarian propaganda, of the kind we are about to receive from the Pentagon and perhaps other government agencies, isn’t designed to produce true believers or mass movements. It’s designed to produce apathy." www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

"Taken aback" ? 🤷‍♀️ But will any of them continue to do journalism anyway? Or are their new marching orders clearly telling them to shield the mad king?

She's always been an op. My only question has been who's paying her to say what. Perhaps she'll spout any nonsense she can profit from saying? Or maybe she's too stupid to see what's happening? IDK, but this is not a woman who is either knowledgeable or passionate about political principles.

... just another reminder of the FELON in the White House...

I always appreciate compliments but getting one from Ro Khanna’s dad via the Congressman is next level!💪🗳️⚖️🙏

Scottish ‘junior’ Doctors accepted a pay offer 2023 with no strikes ▪️12.4% 2023 ▪️inflation beating pay rises for 3yrs ▪️commitment to full pay restoration ▪️removal from “independent” pay review body The Govt listened & talked to the BMA🤷🏻‍♂️ Imagine a Govt willing to negotiate You can do it Wes!!

From now on, when anyone asks how we’re going to pay for it, the answer should be we’ll take it out of the teargas budget.

If someone wanted to harm USA agriculture they'd do 5 things. 1. Deport labor, make work in USA inhospitable 2. Start tariff wars that end US commodity crop exports 3. Fire experts in transmissible livestock disease 4. Invite/subsidize foreign meat competition 5. Tell farmers how much I love them.

Utah has just approved a 1,300-person “mega camp” for homeless individuals,This camp lacks transportation, features locked units, and even imposes forced labor. They refer to this facility as “work-conditioned housing,” but we simply call it what it is: modern-day internment.

Hell yeah, Letitia! NY AG Letitia James unveiled a “Federal Action Reporting Portal” for residents to upload videos & photos of federal immigration activity after a heavily armed ICE raid in Chinatown led to the wrongful detention of 4 US citizens. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

A handy guide to the upcoming holiday: If a kid is on SNAP and you've decided this is the one moment you're going to care: give them the candy If a kid can't verbally say "trick-or-treat" : give them the candy If a kid looks too old to be trick-or-treating: give them the candy Hope this helps!

Governor Kathy Hochul drowned out by 13,000 New Yorkers demanding she Tax The Rich not once, not twice, but THREE times.

NEW: Roughly 3,370 flights were delayed across the U.S. on Monday, Day 27 of the government shutdown, as more essential workers failed to show up to work www.cbsnews.com/news/flight-...

So Argentina gets a $40 billion bailout from our tax dollars but devastated small towns here at home — nothing.

More Proof That Everything Chump Touches Dies.......

Have you heard of corporate feudalism? It’s an economic system where large corporations (oligarchs) control essential resources (donate to “pay” the military), limit workers’ rights, and dominate the markets. The public has only an illusion of choice. Seems relevant.

Even if you are leader of the free world, you don’t just get an MRI without a clear reason to do so. There’s no such thing as a “screening” MRI.

🚨Resources 🚨a thread I’ll be updating a lot. 🧵🧵🧵 Verizon Wireless will work with furloughed federal employees to either split your payment or move the due date forward 30 days if you call them.

"Neither House, during the Session of Congress, shall, without the Consent of the other, adjourn for more than three days, ..." --from Article I Section 5 of the US Constitution. Has the Senate okayed Johnson's current adjournment?

I know you’re a bodybuilder, but use your noggin this time. Nearly half of those who receive food stamps work. Of the rest, most are over 65 or disabled. Wages are too low for tens of millions, and Social Security isn’t enough for many elderly.
