HAAA! Good 1

Yes, and we all knew how dirty donald was way back then, too, yet 1/2 of registered US voters STILL VOTED FOR HIM.

AGREE

The max amt of SNAP an 84 yo senior living alone w/ <$1200 mo income is $298 per month in #Alabama. I just saw on FB where they are cutting that amount by 35% this month. (maybe permanently?) AND THE PPL IN THIS GODFORSAKEN STATE STILL THINK trump + HIS DUMBASS ADMIN IS GOOD, FFS!

Average San Francisco couple

Your reminder that members of Congress (who also have gold-plated health care WE pay for) are eligible for a pension at age 62 if they have completed at least five years of service.

Senate Republicans now say they’re open to extending a ACA funding IF Democrats agree to stricter abortion restrictions on insurance plans. This is why you don't negotiate with terrorists.

And the billionaires and millionaires in control keep creating more and more. Vets.

"If we actually cared about veterans, the first thing we’d do is stop creating more of them." This Armistice Day, CODEPINK co-founder Medea Benjamin reminds us of the day's original meaning.

I'll just let the experts do all the explaining. #SNAP

The proposals outlined in Chapter 10 of #Project2025 indicate a significant shift in how #SNAP benefits may be administered, with potential cuts and stricter eligibility requirements that could adversely affect millions of #Americans relying on food assistance. ... frac.org/blog/project...

As Argentina’s president celebrates our $40B ‘gift’ from the US with Trump at Mar-a-Lago, Stone crab claws were served. Meanwhile, SNAP payments were cut off to American people, and bread lines formed across the country. #Pinks #ProudBlue #StrongerTogether #SNAP youtu.be/0N37ndJml-I?...

this is literally never not accurate

Everyone’s gangster until they hear their own voice on a recording.

Republicans were overwhelmingly getting blamed for the shutdown. There was no reason for the Democrats to cave to Trump on healthcare, except for the fact that they are wholly owned and operated by the health insurance lobby.

don’t worry chuck schumer has a plan and that plan is to go back to his mansion and take a nap.

Unfortunately still true bsky.app/profile/adam...

So, we’re supposed to just hope and pray that these assholes — led by Chuck Schumer are still going to protect our Social Security and Medicare too?? How can we possibly trust any of these elected officials? This is so unacceptable! #Obamacare #Healthcare #SocialSecurity #Medicare #Democrats #Caved

First primary challenger to call Chuck Schumer a feckless cunt would demolish him in a landslide

I KNOW I KNOW! UNBELIEVABLY SHITTY MONDAY

Trump just celebrated Schumer's cave by pardoning 75+ co-conspirators including Rudy Giuliani, Mark Meadows, and Sidney Powell, for their efforts to overturn the 2020 election.

This is obscene!!! Trump throws another extravagant party at Mar-a-Lago while thousands, including government workers, line up at food banks during the shutdown— while he’s still fighting to block SNAP funding while kids go hungry. Literally a tale of two Americas.

Ahmm, what could possibly go wrong?

We can thank Dick Cheney and his ilk for normalizing the concept of secret but totally legal you just have to trust us you guys rationales by the executive branch. Guantanamo's torture prison is a legacy of that. Also, fuck Alberto Gonzales and John Yoo in particular.

“Republicans are making children go hungry to protect pedophiles [in the Epstein files] but it’s a reasonable interpretation of the situation… Republicans could easily avoid SNAP cutoff if they wanted to. It’s cruel: Millions of Americans will suffer severely from the loss of food aid.” Paul Krugman

people hate hearing this but it's 100% true, creating a huge pay gap between political leaders, their staffs, and other elites is a recipe for corruption. of course the flip side of that is taxes on the rich should be jacked way the hell up

I live in a very small town and I know what keeps small town grocery stores open: SNAP.

OpenAI is planting the seeds for a pre-bailout, trying to dupe the government into guaranteeing its future. @ryanlcooper.com explains why this makes no sense given the fantastically absurd business model of the company: prospect.org/2025/11/07/o...

Now, in 2025, federal minimum wage is $7.25 an hour. Democrat leadership freaked the fuck out over people demanding $15/hr minimum wage. A basic big mac meal now costs $10.19, over an hour's worth of minimum wage. In 1974 the actual price was $0.65. old.reddit.com/r/fastfood/c...

VOICEOVER: in the criminal justice system, the people are represented by two separate, yet entirely opposite, groups: the police, who are afraid of sandwiches, and sandwich wielders, armed with food consisting of two pieces of bread filled with meat, cheese, and vegetables. these are their stories.

There were 13 elections last night for a statewide office. Democrats swept all 13. That’s 1 in NJ. 3 in VA. 2 in GA. And 7 in PA (all judges, retention and regular). They won 12 of the 13 races by double-digits, with margins up to 24%. The only other race, the tightest, they won by 6%.
