To dress in the dark, and eat in the dark, and stumble in darkness to his pallet, this is his usual lot.

It still boggles my mind that so many people couldn't grasp last year how significantly more morally depraved a second Trump term would be in comparison to the first. And how so many people still can't comprehend that our national crisis isn't about politics, but simple morality.

Mockler: I’m 23 years old, and Gen Zers have spent all of our formative years living in a political system that’s purely dysfunctional. People in my generation see the president posting memes online rather than actually negotiating with the other side.

I stand alone here upon an open sea, with two oceans and a whole continent between me and law.

“It’s not my job to feed someone else’s kids.” It kind of is. That’s what you do when you’re part of a social species, dude.

As part of today's historic return of ancestral land in the Sierra Nevada foothills and Central Valley back to the Tule River Tribe, the Department of Fish and Wildlife is helping reintroduce tule elk to the area. It's a critical step in restoring balance to the lands and waters of their ancestors.

I have no right to advocate for one person or another in a mayoral race that is not for my city. However, Andrew Cuomo's behavior is shocking to me. He is a deeply flawed person who is saying racist doggerel on T.V.; it is hard to believe that he even wants to live in NYC, let alone govern it.

Just a reminder …

Chinook salmon have returned to the Klamath River in Oregon after being absent for more than a century. The announcement came roughly a year after the last of four major hydroelectric dams on the river was demolished.

Abominable are the tumblers into which he pours his poison.

shame on this schmuck. none of us are free until all of us are free.

I should’ve learned this by now but DO NOT use FedEx. The diseased monkeys I ordered haven’t arrived and I can’t get a straight answer on what happened to them

Men may seem detestable as joint stock-companies and nations

We live in a country where the media is focused more on who a Democratic mayoral candidate defines as his ‘aunt’ than on the DHS Twitter account putting out white nationalist propaganda and replying to Nazis online.

The horrific situation in Sudan continues to concern me, and we cannot afford to overlook the atrocities happening in al-Fashir. It is imperative we press for more focus on the region and an end to this conflict.

With Donald Trump's government shutdown halting SNAP food benefits, California is stepping up. We've fast-tracked $80 million to food banks across the state and deployed hundreds of California National Guard service members to help make sure Californians in need don't go hungry.

Most of all, my disappointment in my own generation hurts the most. To see some of them CELEBRATE and troll those that will lose government assistance is beyond disgusting. We lived thru REAGAN. How the fuck do you see and live that without seeing the truth of the matter?

America: the land where baby formula is locked up because it's shockingly expensive and parents steal it so their babies won't starve.

On Saturday, millions of Americans, including children, could go hungry because the federal government wants to illegally suspend SNAP benefits during the shutdown. We're suing. The USDA has funds to stop people from starving, but instead it's playing politics. It's wrong.

Last Friday, I joined 36 other citizens in Oakland CA to ask if the reason Trump and Republicans are shutting down the House and Senate is because of the Epstein files. Call your Representative and tell them to ask Speaker Johnson to seat Adriana Grijalva and talk with Democrats! 202-224-3121

@jen.sheshed.rocks Would you rt I had plans for 15 food boxes for Thanksgiving I might need more with the SNAP situation 🌲Food/hygiene boxes for holiday break 🌲Gift cards to help buy turkeys, milk, bread 🌲I appreciate help making sure no child is hungry www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/...

If anyone is near UC Berkeley, we are having the annual American Book Awards today at 2 pm pacific time. Wheeler Hall, Room 315. Ill be there along with winning authors and poets. It's free! We celebrate books; we don’t ban them.

AYE. IF YOUR STATE/COUNTY IS HOLDING ELECTIONS, GO VOTE. DO YOUR RESEARCH AND GO VOTE. YOUR LOCAL ELECTIONS AFFECT YOU JUST AS MUCH, IF NOT MORE, THAN THE NATIONAL ONES. WE ALL HAVE A LOT TO SAY, SO MAKE YOUR POINT HEARD AT THE POLLS.

That barista who makes your coffee just right. The cook at your favorite diner. Your kind neighbor who is on deployment. They all have jobs. They all need SNAP to make ends meet. When Trump & the GOP deride those who need some help, understand who they are talking about. It’s people like you.

Black farmers have always gotten shafted in this country. I feel his rage 🔥🔥🔥

He orders extrajudicial killings. He sent troops into our cities. He terrorizes citizens with ICE raids. He raised taxes without congressional approval. He has ruined American farmers and ranchers. He plans to starve the vulnerable. He demolished our house. Remove him from office.

If I were running the DNC, there would be Democratic Party sponsored food relief banks across the country right now that specifically welcomed anyone regardless of party affiliation. Along with the food, there could be voter registration and links to runforsomething.net

As the Trump administration has sent Border Patrol, National Guard and other federal forces to U.S. cities, it can be difficult to tell them apart, or to understand what powers each agency has. Here's a guide.

You are always welcome to borrow my belief in you, until you find yours again

Just a thought: How about we stop shaming the poor for buying things that may not be essential, and start shaming the rich for making a profit off things that are essential?

My god. Look at the “Major Events Timeline.“ We are living in hell. www.whitehouse.gov/about-the-wh...

📸 A look back at the White House East Wing through the decades — now being torn down to make way for President Trump's new ballroom ➡️ reut.rs/48KBkFU

​BREAKING: Today, Interior Secretary Doug Burgum opened all 1.56 million acres of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge’s Coastal Plain to oil and gas leasing. These lands are sacred to the Gwich’in Nation, home to irreplaceable wildlife and wilderness, and have never seen industrialization.

Saw the news about the helicopter crash of Illinois’ state senator Darrin Bailey son and family. My deepest condolences to them and the family. What a deep tragedy that nobody should have to endure.

The symbolism of tearing down the wing of the White House that was built by FDR, shepherd of the New Deal for his wife, a fearless advocate for social change and workers' rights, is not lost on me.

Sad to hear Dave Ball of #Softcell no longer with us. Was performing and writing to the very end!

Incredibly heartbroken for those aboard Flight 93 who tried to prevent this from happening. My god. 😔

As SNAP programs are cut nationwide, it amazes me how many people are saying, "Good. They'll have to get off their asses and work if they want to eat," completely ignoring the 11,000,000 disabled people on those programs who would absolutely love to be out working, but can't. Where is your empathy?
