Trump’s tariff policy is as strategic as a toddler playing with a light switch.

This is next level authoritarianism.👇 "Following the suspension of two career prosecutors, the U.S. Department of Justice quietly revised a sentencing memo in a high-profile case — removing all references to the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, and President Donald Trump’s social media post."

The cruelty is the point.

Every Democrat should be saying this all day and every day. The people using SNAP benefits are the working poor, the elderly, the disabled, and children. The Democrats need to pound this message home repeatedly. The president is starving people because he wants them to go hungry.

Welch: "This has nothing to do with the shutdown. The law requires and the funds are available to continue SNAP right now without any interruption. So that is a decision the president is making on his own to allow people to go hungry."

I never looked at it this way but the math is right! MAGA is a little more than 5% of the population in America. THEY ARE THE MINORITY!!!!!

This is not the same country I fought for, & i'm terrified not for myself but for my grandkids & their generation, Donald's fascist to the core & Magarepubs have fully embraced authoritarianism, Dems gotta take back both houses or America's greatest experiment (250yrs) Democracy will end,

Pennsylvania has an important Supreme Court race coming up on Tuesday, November 4. If you live in the Keystone State, or know someone who does, vote YES to retain three justices who will protect your fundamental rights and freedoms.

Trump’s nominee to the US export bank has withdrawn amid scrutiny of his close familial ties to Russian banks and Putin-linked oligarchs. Bryce McFerran had no previous government experience but gave $1 million to Trump’s campaign.

Pastor David Black was shot in the head with pepper balls while praying for ICE detainees in Chicago. Watch him speak out.

The federal criminal justice system is being systematically dismantled and destroyed piece by piece and turned into a mob boss’s network of corrupt consiglieres and thugs, where good people simply doing their jobs are rooted out and eradicated.

This is how our government has been corrupted: 1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office 2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor 3) Donors make huge profit 4) Repeat We must get big money out of politics. It is the root of our dysfunction.

Speaker Mike Johnson is perpetually trying to deceive people. He uses his milquetoast speech and persona to mask his determination to ruthlessly cause harm. He wears his “Christianity” on his sleeve as a decoy from his evil intentions. He is not a good person, he just tries to play one on TV.

California sues the White House to restore SNAP benefits as cutoff looms.

We aren’t talking nearly enough about how the DEA faked 171 “high-ranking” cartel arrests, and how DHS faked old protest footage to sell immigration crackdowns. These are supposed to be apolitical agencies tasked with national security, not propaganda salesmen for the Trump admin

🚨BREAKING: The Department of Justice (DOJ) this week placed two federal prosecutors on leave after they wrote in a court filing that on Jan. 6, 2021, “thousands of people comprising a mob of rioters attacked the U.S. Capitol,” a source familiar with the personnel moves told Democracy Docket.

"To any governors or state legislators out there... if you are in a position where you have the power to redraw your maps... if you have the ability to meet this moment with the urgency that it deserves, I'm calling on you to do exactly what we're doing in California and to fight fire with fire."

The federal government keeps labeling everyone they go after as cartel members — and it keeps being proven false. These are the same people we’re supposed to trust when they execute people at sea under that very justification?

Trump wants to sell Nvidia’s Blackwell AI chips to please Xi Jinping. That’s absurd. These chips will turbocharge China’s military weapons and surveillance systems. That’s not “America First.” It’s putting our national security at risk.

The Project 25 theocrats are counting on installment of Vance. That's the plan

2,500 pantries supported across the state $80M in state funds fast-tracked for distribution 390 @calvolunteers.bsky.social — with hundreds more waiting in the wings And National Guard men and women deployed, proud to be the good guys We will not just let Californians in need go hungry.

Newsom: The New Testament and Old Testament have one dominant thing in common—Matthew, Isaiah, Luke, Proverbs, go down the list—it’s about food, about serving those who are hungry. It’s not a suggestion; it’s core and essential to what it means to align with God’s will.

It is painfully clear Republicans are not listening to folks back home.   What families nationwide are saying is: "Please stop my premiums from doubling."   And what are Republican leaders saying? "Not our problem, we never wanted to lower health care costs in the first place."

We have 6 Catholics on the scotus who should be excommunicated.

It’s shameful that some law firms have bent the knee to President Trump’s demands — good lawyers don’t give in to political pressure. We’ve filed more than 100 lawsuits so far to protect our rights from the Trump administration, and we'll never abandon ship.

The day clownish Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton files a ridiculous, performative lawsuit against Tylenol seems a good day to re-post this:

Jeffries: "Do what leaders do as opposed to being missing in actio for 28 days while finding $40b to bail out a right-wing wannabe dictator in Argentina & destroying the historic parts of the WH so he can construct a ballroom where he'll be celebrated like a wannabe king. It's all outrageous stuff."

Trump demands $230 Million from the DOJ, in lieu of a lawsuit. Democrats SUE to feed citizens.

Here’s the list of those suing: AZ, CA, CO, CT, DE, HI, IL, ME, MD, MA, MI, MN, NV, NJ, NM, NC, OR, RI, VT, WA, WI, the District of Columbia, and the governors of KS, KY, and PA.

The government is legally required to pay these funds they have available. The regime is trying to mass murder people. Don't let them get away with it.

Hell yeah! 🚨 NEW: 22 states, DC, and 3 governors just filed a legal challenge over a $5 billion “contingency fund” meant to keep SNAP benefits going.

Perspective

Oralè Resisters Hunger doesn’t care if you are A REPUBLICAN OR A DEMOCRAT! #SNAP #USDemocracy

Could you imagine the fucking uppoar from #MAGA if Bernie Sanders called Rachel Maddow from the Senate floor?

Just as Generalissimo Franco and Stalin did to gain control of their people, Trump is willing to starve the vulnerable in order to exert control. Inhumane and stone-cold cruel.

Agreed. The GOP is now fully mask-off fascist and WANTS people to suffer and die. It needs to be called out.

Correct, but the wrong way to frame it. This isn't an economic issue. It's a fascist takeover issue. Everything needs to be framed that way. On account of that is what it is.

Rep. Rosa DeLauro: "On the food stamp issue, the money is there! Let them not get away with saying they can't do it. Their political will isn't there to feed the people who rely on the SNAP program which is the most effective anti-hunger program in the USA."

So the president took a dementia test, and then they administered an MRI. Where’s the media on this?

It is outrageous that Trump refuses to release the $5 billion to fund SNAP and feed our children. The good news is that 11 Republicans are joining all Democrats to demand that we feed American children. Let’s bring that bill to a vote on the floor immediately.

Millions of Americans are about to go hungry without SNAP benefits and House Republicans are nowhere to be found. Meanwhile, billionaire wealth has reached $8 trillion while the government is shut down. The GOP doesn't care if working families lose as long as billionaires win.

BREAKING: We're suing North Carolina over its congressional map that disenfranchises Black voters in the state. The newly passed map shifts thousands of Black voters out of their communities of representation.
