Black lung disease is getting worse and striking younger coal workers in their 30s and 40s. A new rule passed last year would've cut the allowable limit in half to protect them, but now the business friendly Trump admin wants to eliminate or not enforce it. apnews.com/article/blac...

Trump administration demands states "undo" efforts to provide full SNAP payouts for November amid court battle

You see that? How “far right” views are routinely re-packaged as “populist”?

CRUEL & UNUSUAL PUNISHMENT! USDA orders states to stop paying full SNAP benefits and "immediately undo" steps taken to issue them for November.

BREAKING: Trump’s ICE bans Christians and all people from praying “in front of or inside” the Broadview ICE facility. So, forced prayer in school is good, but volunteer prayer for the prisoner is banned. This is what white nationalist Christianity looks like. This is Trump’s fascist America. Smh.

If we want to stop the kidnappings and these agents require anonymity to commit these actions, then we must remove the masks. So long as we allow masked law enforcement to terrorize people, we cannot be a democracy.

Absolutely, positively. And for the Caribbean boat strikes, too.

Wow! The lengths Trump will go to just to make Americans starve. His administration has ordered states to “immediately undo” any steps taken to provide full food stamp benefits to low-income families.

It’s amazing to me that as stupid as I think Trump’s supporters are, he agrees, and they don’t care.

BREAKING: SCOTUS issues emergency order temporarily blocking full SNAP food aid payments. Trump is the most cruel & barbaric man imaginable. He is claiming the government will be permanently harmed by ensuing hungry Americans are fed. This will kill low income people. This is structural eugenics.

Sadistic. Cruel. Despicable. There aren’t enough words.

JFC.

SCOTUS just overturned the federal judges order to fund SNAP through the allocation program. Basically they sided with the cruelty of the administration.

The Trump administration is exploring buying warehouses that were designed for clients like Amazon and retrofitting them as detention facilities for immigrants before they are deported, a move that would vastly expand the government’s detention capacity. www.nbcnews.com/politics/imm...

A federal judge ruled that Trump overstepped his authority when he attempted to send National Guard troops to Portland, Oregon. The judge’s decision permanently prohibits such troop deployments. Thank you Judge Karin J. Immergut!

Trump got his wish to starve Americans. The Supreme Court has allowed the Trump administration to temporarily withhold portions of SNAP payments for November. Huge thanks to the states and workers who rushed to process benefits before the ruling came down, not all heroes wear capes!

While some of this may be a strategic move by the Supreme Court, we’re sharing it so you can draw your own conclusions. Even if temporary, the decision still gives Trump exactly what he wants, to withhold food from American citizens. It’s beyond ridiculous.

We wanted to share this to help people understand what’s going on. It was shared by Jay Kuo and written by Steve Vladeck a clear, straightforward breakdown of the SNAP situation.

This is why i gym. Just in case a "patriot" decides to run up, they can get done up, more efficiently.

Democrats have been focused on the positives for their big win on Tuesday. But I’d like to take a moment to focus on the negatives. The MAGA negatives, that is. My write-up on MAGA cope in the replies!

They are still working so very hard NOT to get it. Still trying to walk some line that don't exist.

Trump: "What the Democrats will do is make Puerto Rico a state, make DC a state, they're gonna pack the Court. They're gonna end up with more electoral votes. They're gonna end up with 4 senators. And they're gonna do this 100%."
