If you’re trying to catch up on what went down with #SNAP late last night at #SCOTUS, here’s my attempt to read the breadcrumbs on the “administrative stay” issued by Justice Jackson—and why a justice so critical of the Court’s grants of emergency relief to Trump still granted temporary relief here:

Emergency Press Conference: Update on the government shutdown and health care from Senator Gary Peters.

And GUESS WHAT I can do small talk 🤗🤗🤗 Yes I can pay the neurotypical tax. Yes I can SMILE and GIVE YOU GOOD VIBES so you FEEL SAFE. and it costs me energy but I get no benefit from it. I don't need to build trust to exchange information.

NO. small talk is a neurotypical need not a universal anything. Greasing my wheels to build trust before you say anything of interest is as useful and welcome to me as if you literally came to me with grease on your hands.

I think I’m out of sandwich puns.

‘No mockeries now for them; no prayers nor bells;  Nor any voice of mourning save the choirs— The shrill, demented choirs of wailing shells; And bugles calling for them from sad shires.’~ Wilfred Owen This #BookWormSat, join us to mark Remembrance Day with war and peace in literature.

THIS IS AMAZING. ALSO WHAT, IF ANYTHING, DID WE FORGET TO RUIN?

=============== SAT, NOV 8, 6PM ET ASK ME ANYTHING with Tucker Favreau, Maine candidate for U.S. Senate If you haven't, check out @tuckerforcongress.bsky.social's page. He's posting a few times a day of late. It's a great way to get his take on things as he vies for Susan Collins' seat. #MEpolitics

There you have it. Susan Collins reportedly waits till the last minute to see if Trump needs her vote to let him keep killing people indiscriminately without due process; it turns out he DOES need it; so she provides it. A pretty simple system! (Not so great for Maine. Or fishermen.) #MEpolitics

When you desperately want to starve Americans:

Warning to the feds: if Trump sends soldiers to NYC, we have very varied sandwich options at our disposal. You will encounter a fusillade of bahm mi, BEC, gyro, chop cheese, BLT, doubles, lox bagel, croque-madame, torta and döner. Hell, half a Katz’s pastrami on rye could wipe out a couple of guys.

Ohhhh, SNAP. [I'm here all week. 🙄]

Let them eat Great Value™.

McConnell: Let me give you my ruling: "It is clear to the court that the adminisrtration did not comply with this court's oral or written order. The Court was clear that the administration either had to make a full SNAP payment by Wed or resolve all its issues"

I'm following the hearing in Judge John McConell's courtroom re: Motion for TRO on SNAP benefits brought by a coalition of non-profits. He should take the bench in about 15 minutes. Follow along!

One thing that the Trump administration did by telling states to make half of SNAP payments is to make sure no payments were made: restructuring the payment system is just not something that can happen overnight. Strategic use of burdens to ensure the program did not function.

SNAP surveys SNAP users. Already half of them are saying they are skipping meals.

What are the effects of the shutdown on SNAP users? Propel provides an app to SNAP users to allow them to track their spending and so can offer real-time estimates of needs. About 70% of SNAP households have a $10 or less balance on their SNAP card accounts. www.propel.app/shutdown-fun...

An honor to get momos with our Mayor-elect today! 🥟🗽🌹 #TeamNoSleep

My name is Tucker Favreau. I'm a 34 year-old Army Veteran running as a Democratic Candidate for US Senate in Maine. Attached is my rather simple announcement video. Please share if you are looking for more options in Maine to replace Susan Collins! And support Medicare for All! #maine #mepolitics

A few weeks ago Deprez and I wrote about Dunlap vs Golden (and the Senate race, too). Here's part of what we said about these candidates and the ME-2 Dem primary race. Also: National reporters should listen to people who live here. #mepolitics washingtonmonthly.com/2025/10/24/g...

Area criminal admits Republicans are responsible for the shutdown.

Excellent. Maybe we can get an actual Democrat?

I hope you're happy: Alan Dershowitz has been forced to issue a statement on the fake Post headline

LMAO he's trying to be Mamdani!

Lot of weird blank spaces on the front pages of the Post. You would never know this paper was owned by someone who made his fortune building a website.

If you think that I am going to sit idly by while the Trump administration tries to bar people over 50 & deeming them ineligible to apply for Social Security disability…I would NEVER do that. I am working some major advocacy. I hope to share this with you very soon! REMEMBER NEVER GIVE UP HOPE. 🙏🙏💜💜

Mamdani cracks 1M votes, the first NYC mayor to do so since John Lindsay in 1969

Who marks the waxing tide grow wave by wave

Virginia Dems wins mean an abortion rights amendment will almost certainly be on the 2026 ballot

There are more of us than there are of them.

"When you're a star, they let you do it." 🤞

I'm at the ballot box. I'm at the Mickey D's. I'm at the combination ballot box and Mickey D's.... Don't forget to vote today, in Oregon (where we do it best), or wherever you call home.
