You’re far more likely to have used, or need, SNAP benefits at some point in your life than you are to ever benefit from Trump’s tax cuts, step foot in that new ballroom, or become a billionaire.

“According to a 2019 USDA report, every dollar in new SNAP benefits increases GDP by $1.50 in a weak economy.” “SNAP benefits are one of the fastest, most effective forms of economic stimulus because they get money into the economy quickly during a recession.” ~Center for Budget and Policy

As a part of the @equaldistricts.org coalition, I was invited on to the @unitedshestands.bsky.social podcast to break down what’s happening with redistricting, why it matters, and how Ohioans can demand fair electoral maps.

I’m very grateful to the United SHE Stands @unitedshestands.bsky.social podcast for inviting me on to talk about how important state government and policy is to people’s actual lives here in Ohio. And how gerrymandering and corruption have impacted everything ➡️ podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/u...

Ohio could have high speed rail that gives us access across the Midwest but instead we keep sending Republicans to our Statehouse.

The stupidity in Trump’s new tariffs is apparently limitless. He has introduced a 10% tariff on the British Indian Ocean Territory. The only inhabited island there is Diego Garcia, home to US service personnel. TRUMP HAS PUT A TARIFF ON A US MILITARY BASE 🤡

I got to speak to a civics-themed trivia night hosted by @unitedshestands.bsky.social about LGBTQ+ leaders and support organizations in the area. Check out the crowd they brought out! And having beer available didn’t hurt!

Amazing turnout for CIVICS TRIVIA NIGHT at HiHO Brewing! Thank you @unitedshestands.bsky.social for hosting and featuring @rankthevoteohio.bsky.social alongside other local pro-democracy groups!

Mitch McConnell voted knowing Tulsi & RFK’s confirmations would go through. He’s not actually trying to stop Trump. If he cared, he would have impeached in 2020 & put an end to Trump then. His votes don’t change the fact that he’s a coward who has been complicit in harming this country.

The complaints from Republicans about who isn’t attending Trump’s inauguration can’t be real. Just 4 years ago, Trump, as the sitting President, did not attend Biden’s. The sitting President & VP will be attending because they believe in democracy, but it’s so much more than Trump deserves.

A couple questions here… is this how egg prices are going to come down? Or is this the plan for peace & to end all wars? Just making some assumptions since we haven’t seen any plans to do either of those two big campaign promises.

If you’re furious that people who made a mockery of our democracy have skirted accountability and are set to retake power, we’re right there with you. But instead of giving in to despair, put your anger to use. We’re not sitting back while Trump and MAGA continue to dismantle our democracy.

Dems should only be doing one thing right now after every idiotic thing comes out of his mouth. “How does this bring down the price of groceries?”

Blind loyalty to a political figure is insane. They are suppose to work for you. Promised to lower grocery prices? You should be mad & push back when they say they can’t do that after being elected.

Dear Greenland, We’re sorry. Sincerely, Sane America

A real photo and perfect metaphor heading into 2025.

Elon hasn’t even got the keys to his $260 million dollar home purchase on Pennsylvania Ave and he’s already feuding with the MAGA children.

After his successful consolidation of power, the Leader prepares for show trials of those who resisted his first failed putsch.

Don’t get us wrong, ending daylight savings would be cool but not if we also have to get polio.

It’s easy & understandable to be triggered & outraged by all the dumb shit Trump & team are doing/plan to do. But we can’t let them exhaust us. This is a marathon, not a sprint. Do what you can to take care of yourself & save your rage for the things we can impact.

Pretty well sums it up.

So let us get this straight… Republicans think bans don’t work when it comes to assault weapons, but banning folks from bathrooms will stop se❌ual assault? That whole criminals are going to do it anyway argument must not apply here? Got it.

That report must be horrendous if he’s going to these lengths

If Matt Gaetz DIDNT rape a minor, the GOP would have released the report. Just fyi

Sex offenders, people Russia is thrilled about, billionaires & TV hosts with no real qualifications for the role, & conspiracy theorists who think they know better than experts all serving a narcissistic sex offender that loves dictators & incites violence. What could go wrong?

We never had an X account, but down to give this thing a go on bluesky if we don’t have to hang out with Elon.
