FACTS about SNAP: -35% to white people (largest share) -90% to people born in 🇺🇸 -86% to households with kids -70% work full time but aren’t paid a living wage (aka corporate welfare)

A government office worker who helps seniors and the disabled with social security benefits shared her emotional response to the government shutdown. Essential government workers like her haven't been paid in four weeks. The pressure of it all has led to panic attacks: "We don't deserve this."

Apparently "not touching the White House" turned into "demolishing the White House"

🚨BREAKING: A federal judge in Texas dismissed a GOP lawsuit against California’s new congressional redistricting plan ruling that the plaintiff, Rep. Ronny Jackson (R-Texas), had no right to sue over another state’s election laws. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Today, the White House Press Secretary told the country that this ridiculous damn ballroom is “the president’s main priority”…not reopening the government, not lowering the cost of groceries, not lowering the cost of housing, not lowering the cost of healthcare….building a ballroom

Portland 🔥

Community notes strike again.

Thanks, New Yorker

This is Trump’s America. Our own military forced to cause chaos in the the streets against us. This isn’t training for them. This isn’t their job. #Chicago

👇🏽

Attn Black people, stop scrolling. This is not a drill: Chicago

It's never OK for Dems to call political opponents authoritarians... but totally cool when these guys do it

🏆 Well done, Jimmy! #Memphis #Tennessee #StephenMiller #DonaldTrump #SchoolOfRock

And after 40 minutes of cringe-Thunderous applause from the generals! Just kidding. Total silence. 👀 🦗 🦗

Trump and his billionaire donors might be able to determine Adams and Cuomo’s actions. But they won't decide this election. In just over 5 weeks, we'll turn the page on the politics of big money and small ideas — and deliver a government every New Yorker can be proud of.

Stop the scapegoating and start dealing with America’s real gun crisis. HOMEGROWN‼️

Last night in LA… Nightmare fuel on a freeway wall.

I knew it!

I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

Are credit scores a scam?

There was a time when the behavior of Trump would have been unacceptable for all Americans. I don’t recognize this country anymore. Here’s a Meryl Streep memory…

California - Gov. @gavinnewsom.bsky.social : “Unmarked cars. People in masks. People disappearing… immigrants have rights, and we have the right to push back, and that’s what we’re doing.”

In a moment like this, when tensions are high, part of the job of the president is to remind us of the ties that bind us together.

Raskin: "He wants to condition the public to the idea that it's completely legitimate for the president not only to be ordering prosecutions of particular people over the objections of prosecutors, but he wants to condition the public to accepting the idea he can do that in public, openly."

Crockett: "I'm gonna honor someone who decided they were going to proclaim I was involved in the 'great white replacement'? Yeah, I'm not honoring that ... it's unfortunate more of my colleagues even on my side couldn't see the amount of harm this man was attempting to inflict upon our communities"

The Big Fall Canvass continues on this gorgeous Sunday across the five boroughs. Every door you knock, every conversation you start, every palm card you hand to a neighbor gets us one step closer to winning a city we can afford. Sign up: zohranfornyc.com/bfcv

I'm hearing "political violence has no place in America" from people who were more than OK with what happened on Jan 6, 2021.

Don't threaten me with a good time.

Again: this is not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.

Newsom releases new ad 🔥

Newsmax reaches $67M settlement with Dominion Voting Systems in defamation case.

A man who worked for the U.S. military in Afghanistan and his family could be eligible for asylum in Canada — but ICE won’t release them.

Scott Pilgrim vs. the World was released on this day in 2010, giving us this iconic scene 🎸 #filmsky

Today we took our five borough tour to Staten Island, which too often has been caricatured or ignored. The truth is that the story of Staten Island is the story of New York — a city built by generations of immigrants, where everyone wants to be able to afford a dignified life.

Last week in the Rockaways.

Andre 3001 $310 Billion

Today we learned Andrew Cuomo is directly coordinating with Donald Trump, even as this President sends masked agents to rip our neighbors off the streets and guts the social services so many New Yorkers rely on. It’s disqualifying and a betrayal of our city.

ICE raided two Asian supermarkets simultaneously and in one confiscated paperwork, necessary documents and shut down the business. They even harassed the shoppers. When your face is the only crime, what kind of system is that.

Newsflash, Wannabe Dictator: I don’t care how many times you shake the Etch A Sketch trying to redraw these lines. I’m not disappearing. I’ll be back, still on your behind every step of the way. (1/2)

Megan Rapinoe, Sue Bird, and Doppler recreated the viral clip of the Astronomer CEO getting caught on the Coldplay KISS Cam🤣 #SeattleStorm #NothingButStorm #WNBA

After avoiding it during the primary, Andrew Cuomo finally went on the Brian Lehrer Show last week — and lied about his record. The truth is that universal pre-K was won despite the disgraced ex-Governor, not because of him.

Epstein accuser 'disgusted' at Maxwell pardon speculation

The strength of our democracy and who our economy works for are intertwined. We cannot talk about one without the other.

We have to deal with the shittiest Kennedy

TEXAS @repcasar.bsky.social : “Imagine in another country a corrupt president was trying to change the election laws. Then that president’s political ally threatened to remove all the legislators of the other party to get it done. That’s what’s happening in Texas right now.”
