I just received my food delivery that I was able to purchase because I RECEIVED my SNAP benefits today. I sobbed. I didn't expect that reaction. I cried for the relief of having access to food but it was ALSO for the 42M under so much stress and for the MILLIONS who have NOT received their benefits.

Congress dropped a so-called "minibus" deal to end the 40-day shutdown but it's a surrender disguised as progress. It funds veterans and agriculture but abandons the 20 million Americans who rely on ACA subsidies for health care. A Band-Aid won't fix a bleeding nation.

Pay attention to what Democratic candidates are saying right now. Find and support the fighters. Having a spine must be a litmus test issue in 2026 and beyond.

SPOILER ALERT: The super-rich don't leave when you tax them, because they can afford to stay where they are. They just tell you they'll leave to stop you raising their taxes.

E-mail your reps! E-mail them even if they're not your reps! Trump hates Democracy, hates the Constitution! The republicans can't be trusted to care about the 24 million Americans who will have their Health Care premiums doubled, or the 40 million who will go hungry without SNAP funding. #RESIST

My October beauties.From L to R: The Mingus Mountains, my favorite rose, Munstead Wood, new rose Princess Alexandra of Kent and Pope John Paul II. I love scent and all of these have wonderful scent and beauty. They bloom throughout the year. 🌟💜

Crockett: You have a president who consistently is obsessing over two women of color that are members of the house, I don't know what black woman hurt him in his past, honey, but it is really taking him through it.

Ukrainian war veteran Andrii Madzharov walked from Ukraine to Belgium, covering over 1,500 kilometers. The main goal of his journey was to remind Europeans that the war in Ukraine is still ongoing. In addition, Andrii was raising funds for electronic warfare equipment for his brothers-in-arms.

Collins: When the president says there's virtually no inflation and that grocery prices are going down, do you agree with him on that? Greene: No. I go to the grocery store myself. Grocery prices remain high. Energy prices are high.

[friend] omg youve lost so much weight whats your secret [me] haha thank you groceries cost twice as much now

Can I just say.... YIPPEEEEEE!!!! 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅

@sydneykamlager.bsky.social: Trump "is out of touch with reality. I think he is in cognitive decline, but he did not run to be president to actually help this country. He ran to exert maximum pain, as he and speaker Mike Johnson have said over and over during the course of the shutdown."

🙏🏽 Amen.

Welp — @davidhogg.bsky.social to Scott Jennings: "People are tired of being lectured by men with Rolexes on CNN about affordability in this country. That’s why Zohran is resonating."

WOW. A federal judge says he's going to issue a Temporary Restraining Order requiring ICE to make changes at the Broadview facility in Chicago, a facility that until January was only for stays under 12 hours "absent exceptional circumstances," but has become, in Judge Gettleman's words, "a prison."

Our government needs to change, and one change I'D like to see is Independents be recognized as a Party and have full Party rights. In AZ, where I live, the (R) passed a law preventing Independents from participating in Primaries. So we cannot choose our Reps/Sen., This shouldn't happen!

My husband isn't a religious man, but he's a GOOD man, and as we were having breakfast out together he saw a grandmother with her granddaughter. We decided to pay their ticket for them as a surprise, a joy for them, and for us. He has given me, and so many others, generosity, kindness, and love ❤️

Trump’s threat to invoke the Insurrection Act isn’t new, but it’s getting louder and from all directions! We had years of warnings. He told us what he’d do. Project 2025 laid it out, but too many shrugged. How much is “enough” for everyone to start getting loud with one voice before it’s too late?

Why do people buy pizza with EBT? Because cauliflower is five dollars a head and you can buy five pizzas with the same money. It’s not that folks don’t want to be healthy. They can’t afford to be healthy.

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social: "Mike Johnson - pious, good way to describe him - who's competing for bullshit, bloviation and lies with Donald Trump."

Newsom: "He just announced he'll be sending out strike teams and organizing them in every state. Wake up! What the hell do we need to tell people to get them off their couch? To say, 'Hold on. I may have liked his bluster. I may not have liked the last guy, but I didn't sign up for this.'"

What he said Part 2: 💯 🎯

We are at a crossroads. Each one of us must decide our own character, what is within our being, what we stand for, REGARDLESS of what the Puppet does. It's US that matter; will we work together, or will we divide ourselves and continue to dissolve? What do YOU choose? I know... I love You.

Good morning and happy Wednesday to everyone. I'm not on food stamps. I don't get Medicaid. I rely on no social safety nets. But I still believe in fully funding these programs. Why? Because I'm not a selfish dipshit.

I don't recognize this place anymore. I'm scanning the people, looking for my enemies, the black cars, and my heart beats fast in my chest; I'm ready for the fight. This is MY America for my family. We are Apache, Pechanga, Mexican, Irish, Black, French, Portuguese, German. We are American.

In Portland, Oregon, masked ICE GOONS abducted and vanished US citizen Gonzalo Catalan last week. Tragically, his family remains unaware of his whereabouts and has not received any communication from him as of today.

Karoline Leavitt officially announced the "Launch of a large-scale investigation to find the people behind 'No Kings.'" I've saved her some time.

NDAs can’t be used to cover up illegal activities. If the person asking you to sign one is doing something illegal, you can break it & sue. Lawyers & government folks chime in here, but hey are usually only used in business deals. Also, this shows just how horrible, incompetent, and evil they are.

And everyone who screamed about Hunter is silent. Endless corruption. www.reuters.com/investigatio...

They should have the cops arrest all of the ice agents for disturbing the peace.

Breaking on MSNBC: Two federal prosecutors have been placed on leave at the direction of the White House after filing a sentencing memo seeking 27 months in prison for a pardoned Jan. 6 rioter who brought illegal guns and ammunition to President Obama's house in 2023.

Hey #LA #YesOn50

Mikie Sherrill calls Trump’s tariff program what it is: a worldwide extortion scheme. Costs are soaring, the deficit’s ballooned, and Trump even tried to gut NJ’s infrastructure funds. Sherrill stopped him once and she’ll do it again to protect NJ schools and the Gateway Tunnel. #VoteNJ

AOC: There was a day before his presidency, and there will be a day after — and it belongs to us.

Be the light!!
