Yikes…

From MSNBC: Half of the states in this country plus DC sued the Regime over the suspension of SNAP Benefits for 40 million people which includes 17 million children, elderly & disabled people, also military personnel & veterans for the month of Nov. A federal judge is supposed to make a ruling soon.

IL-09 candidate Bethany Johnson cannot help but try to constantly out-weird herself, which is hard to do given that her campaign involves being a biohazard at opposing candidates' campaign offices. Her latest strategy is to fully embrace the fascist regime's sloppy charges against Kat Abughazaleh.

My boyfriend just helped 2.2 MILLION people get their criminal records expunged in the state of Illinois. Shoutout to #CleanSlate and second chance legislation. 💕

I’m going to win, in the courtroom and on Election Day. But I need your help to do it: katforillinois.com/legal

So the vibe I'm getting is that the "American Dream" was just bragging. They just wanted to let you know how great it was. Not, like, for you to try to have it too. Duh.

Get the Ghostface off the screen, WE'RE NOT WATCHING THAT! Even though I LOVE horror and I LOVE the first 6 movies in the franchise, they fired Melissa Barrera for supporting Palestine so I'M NOT WATCHING SCRE** 7. Urging y'all to skip it too. Wait for a bootleg if you must. Give them NO DOLLARS.

This was just posted by a CBS News producer on their Instagram stories.

More than 460 people were reportedly killed in a North Darfur hospital that was overrun by Sudanese paramilitary forces, the WHO said

COUNT I Kat Abughazaleh did, while law enforcement was in heated pursuit, paint what appeared to be the entrance to a cave on a sheer rock wall, causing law enforcement to forcibly bonk into said wall. COUNT II The same thing on a different wall, but then a train came out and ran us over???

Kat is being federally charged by the FBI for protesting at Broadview. This is a flagrant political prosecution by the Trump administration, which is trying to prevent free speech and free association. I am proud of Kat. Her movement is being targeted by the government. She needs your support.

PEORIA, Ill. (AP) — Illinois deputy found guilty of murder in the shooting of Sonya Massey, a Black woman who called 911 asking for help.

I have been charged in a federal indictment sought by the Department of Justice. This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I’m not backing down, and we’re going to win.

A quick reminder that the House is not in session because Speaker Johnson CANCELED it, not because of the current shutdown.

It feels like taxpayers are footing the bill for a dying tyrant’s wish list. A ballroom. A triumphal arch. A war in Venezuela. He’s got people lobbying for him to get a Nobel Prize for the COVID vaccines. No bequest for the American people in his dying days, though. We’re not important to him.

Do not be a doomer about this. Just call your New York friends and remind them to vote, and tell them to do the same. He is more popular and will win with good turnout.

Videography too.

Calling Hurricane Melissa "rare" is a scary precedent to set. We know climate change is impacting the composition, strength, and timing of these storms. We KNOW they're getting stronger and bigger. She's not a rarity, she's setting a new standard. That's the scary part.

In a shocking reality check, @wired.com is not, in fact, bankrolled by “donations from far left organizations.” We actually rely on an amazing and growing audience of subscribers to support our journalism, so please subscribe to WIRED if you don’t already.

This is so fucked up.

Missing the days when, if a scary masked man approached us on the street, WE pepper sprayed HIM, not the other way around.

Remember kids the people who tell you that you are asking for too much… don’t want you to ask for any

"I DON'T NEED YOU TO FUCKING REWRITE WHAT I'VE JUST WRITTEN!"

The minimum acceptable Democratic Party candidate position needs to be to shut this shit down and prosecute all of these fuckers.

The government shutdown has put SNAP benefits at risk for millions of Americans. Travis Peters, an urban farmer in Detroit, is giving out free produce tomorrow 'If it's getting tight, my food is free. Don’t even sweat that'

Crying on my flight. Please, believe survivors. "We need to make it easier to punish those who victimize others" - Virginia Roberts Giuffre, RIP.

SNAP isn't about "people who don't work." It's about people who don't get paid enough to live. Of the 40 or so million people who rely on food stamps: * Two-thirds are children, seniors, or disabled * Most working-age adults who receive SNAP are employed—but in jobs that pay poverty wages

so mike johhnson lied when he said earlier today that there was no legal way to access the contingency funds

You can sell white people their own demise if you wrap it up in racism they agree with. This is what we keep seeing. It doesn’t matter what the fuck is inside as long as it’s packaged in a way that the main point reads “we hate the same people you hate”.

Great framing.

40 Billion dollars. The American tax payers just purchased a foreign election, during a government shutdown, through a unilateral declaration by DD, for $40 billion.

$40 billion for Argentina, while millions in the U.S. will face hunger next week when SNAP benefits run out amid the MAGA shutdown. #FDT #50501Movement #PeoplesMovement

They don’t care. If they cared about food security for children, school lunch would be free and folks wouldn’t push back on it every time the topic is brought up. SNAP also feeds the elderly, the disabled, the unemployed, and MOSTLY the EMPLOYED. Most recipients work. They’re underemployed

Preemptive reminder that Samaritan's Purse doesn't follow disaster relief and recovery best practices, not even in Franklin Graham's backyard of Western North Carolina, and they're not a good organization to donate to for Hurricane Melissa recovery.

Don't just pray for the islands. Find somewhere to donate.

70% of working age SNAP recipients work full time. The companies should pay them a living wage! SNAP is corporate welfare.

*stares in teaching/academia*

This is my nightmare hurricane. For years I said the two scariest kinds of hurricanes were Harvey (slow soaker that won’t move) and Michael (TS to Cat 5 in like 36 hours). This is BOTH and it’s about to hit Jamaica

Threatening to arrest governors for seditious conspiracy. Getting dark fast.

I didn't realize they wanted to destroy the Jacqueline Kennedy Garden too.

too many engines for fishing, DEFINITELY a drug boat...

girl the tariffs

On Monday, I will officially file my petitions to get on the ballot. But I want to take a second to highlight the work we’ve been doing to get here. This is what a people-powered, community-focused campaign looks like: youtu.be/HUWZl22Pp3k

A not insignificant number of people knew the demolition was coming, including people at the White House Historical Association, and did nothing to stop it.

he's knocking down the literal white house and illegally murdering people by dropping bombs on international boats and the government has been shut down for weeks and it's just like....yep

😕

btw trump bombed another boat today

Listening to the Nobody's Girl audiobook on my flight back to Ohio for my brother's wedding. Believe survivors. Please.

If this gets reskeeted 483,000 times I’ll buy a miniature donkey.
