Nearly seven million pregnant women and young children depend on WIC for healthy foods. Advocates say funding could run out in about two weeks, leaving states to close the gap if their budgets allow.

As I was saying…

This! THIS!!!

Kimmel: "The President of the United States made it very clear he wants to see me and the hundreds of people who work here fired from our jobs. Our leader celebrates Americans losing their livelihoods because he cannot take a joke."

Some of us do.

The USA is bringing back measles and Japan is out here figuring out teleportation… 😭😭😭 www.sciencedaily.com/releases/202...

People like Kirk use rhetoric that amplifies the idea of white Christian male superiority (white nationalism) usually to a group of young white men who, let’s face it, AREN’T superior in any way. That type of mentality is a breeding ground for hate, jealousy, and retaliation.

I literally had someone say that to me yesterday and I said, “you sound like the people who live next to serial killers and talk about what a great neighbor they were.”

Congress is finally looking into a whistleblower claim. Senate Finance Committee Chair Sen. Michael D. Crapo (R-Idaho) asked the Social Security Administration to provide details about the agency mishandled sensitive data. The concerns stem from a whistleblower claim filed last month by

I know Charlie Kirk valued debate and free speech because he blocked me for fact-checking his lies on Twitter and then put me on his organization's Professor Watchlist for writing a book he didn't like.

I don’t know, maybe if a shit ton of people weren’t walking around in tactical gear with weapons and face coverings right now the shooter would have been easier to spot…

i think anyone saying he practiced politics the right way or that we should continue his work should first have to read out loud his last days worth of posts to someone they love who doesnt know who he is

The FBI right now could probably use all those experienced senior career professionals with decades of investigative experience that they fired for absolutely no reason.

“He was just a debator…” What was he debating, Janice? WHAT WAS HE DEBATING?!?

“Deeply hostile to workers”

The shooter was the exact kind of extremist the GOP pretends doesn’t exist, while arming them to the teeth. substack.com/home/post/p-...

The largest SNAP cuts in history went into effect yesterday, eliminating or drastically cutting food assistance for millions of Americans. And it’s all to pay for more tax cuts that primarily benefit the super-rich. Trickle-down economics isn't just a hoax — it's cruel.

The reason Trump keeps lying about crime rates is because everything his administration is doing is going to cause crime rates to soar and he’s trying to get ahead of that by acting like they’ve always been high. .

New Mexico is overriding the federal government on the topic of COVID19 vaccines to ensure their residents can access them. States hold a tremendous amount of public health power. They should use it.

If IT has happened it would be the only nice thing he’s ever done - dying over a three day weekend so we can all celebrate longer.

"Pat, why do you carry that ridiculous 600mm lens on long hikes?" Buddy, I can see mountains reflected in the eyes of a trailside pika.

“Do not offer thoughts and prayers as you systemically enable such tragedies. Do not claim prayers are sufficient when children die as they pray. Do not pretend you do not understand.” — Lydia, 16, Minneapolis

This interview, which is also available to listen to as a podcast, provides a useful overview of some of the dangerous trends we’ve been seeing in recent months regarding federalization and militarization of state and local police functions.

Per CDC leadership exodus, @drdemetre.bsky.social, the Director of the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases, has posted his resignation letter on Instagram. “The intentional eroding of trust in low-risk vaccines favoring natural infection and unproven remedies…

Dr. Demetre, in his resignation from the CDC, said this: “I have never experienced such radical non-transparency, nor have I seen such unskilled manipulation of data to achieve a political end rather than the good of the American people”. It is an outrage that RFK Jr. remains as head of HHS.

NEW: ProPublica has identified at least 15 major disasters since 2016 in which officials in the most-harmed communities failed to use a federal system to send emergency alerts to residents — or waited until it was too late. By @jenniferberryhawes.bsky.social‬

We’re going to go on a rant for a minute, and yes we’re bringing some history with us. Back in 1755, Benjamin Franklin wrote words that still echo today: “Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.”

Masked immigration raids don’t protect us. They hide abuse and strip away our dignity. Stand with me in demanding transparency and accountability by adding your name to this petition.

Krasner: So, if what you have is a group of ICE agents, or even the military, coming into Philadelphia and committing crimes—assaults that are illegal, kidnapping, unlawful restraint, obstruction of the administration of justice—they can be prosecuted.

Pritzker: This is not about fighting crime. This is about the President and his complicit lackey, Stephen Miller, searching for ways to lay the groundwork to circumvent our democracy, militarize our cities, and end elections.

Did y’all know you can contact The National Guard? I let them know exactly how I feel about them taking up arms against the citizens of this country. Fucking traitors. nationalguard.com

Gavin Newsom responds to Fox's Dana Perino melting down over his tweets:

If you want to put back statues and memorials and names of Confederate traitors while tearing down museum exhibitions on slavery because they don't show the greatness of the nation... the nation whose history you're celebrating is whiteness. The kind of nationalist you are is a white nationalist.

🇺🇸 National Guard soldier speaks out: “I swore an oath to defend our constitution… seeking refuge is not an act of violence. Locking people up for it is.”

I left the Internet for like half a day and came back to people having to say slavery was bad. What fresh hell is this?!?

This is such a good interview. Great questions and thoughtful, INTELLIGENT answers regarding what CA is doing and why. Seriously, watch. youtu.be/lNu6CC-rKXA

Someone in Alaska could solve a lot of the world’s problems… #TwoBirdsOneStoneAndWhatNot

Someone's getting a good deal this Back To School season, and it's not you.

Ghislaine Maxwell’s attorney - addressing me directly - says there’s no such thing as prisoner work details outside the facility in the federal prison system. Yes there are. I have receipts.

The moment he named his platform “Truth Social” we were headed this way.

Raskin: In any event, if he really cared about public safety in DC… he would not have pardoned 1600 insurrectionists and violent cop beaters on his first day in office. 

"If you live in Alaska, I need you to buy a Ukrainian flag and turn any area that Putin is going to be into a sea of Ukrainian flags - so many that, when Putin lands, all he's going to see is just yellow and blue."

First it was troops in L.A., sent to provoke and assault peaceful protesters under the banner of “immigration enforcement.” Now it’s troops in our capital to disappear the homeless. See the pattern? Sooner or later, the monster comes for us all.

the intensity of my anger at those who would criminalize the homeless — a population literally created by the greed and callousness of the ruling class — is very hard to contain. it was you who dismantled the safety net. if you don’t like the results, put it back
