BREAKING: DOJ goes to SCOTUS trying to stop a district court order that USDA pay out full SNAP benefits this month. The First Circuit denied an administrative stay, but has not yet ruled on the stay request. And, CNN reported that USDA is already processing payments. DOJ went to SCOTUS anyway.

HE'S APPEALING TO THE SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES THAT HE BE ALLOWED TO STARVE AMERICANS

Oops. "All of the evidence prosecutors have cited to demonstrate that Comey instructed an FBI lackey—in this case Richman—to speak anonymously to the press took place outside of the periods when Richman was actually employed by the bureau." newrepublic.com/post/202911/...

Republicans don’t care if you starve or die from lack of health care, as long as they can prevent the release of the #EpsteinFiles.

They’re protecting the Pedo-in-Chief.

This is creepy and weird and flying beneath the radar. The Russian asset guy who totally fabricated a story to attack Biden during the campaign and got six years for it was secretly released from prison months ago, and no one can say why or where he is. newrepublic.com/post/202897/...

Layoffs are reaching their highest levels since the pandemic, but America's corporate elite have never been doing better. Is it any wonder why so many think the system is rigged?

Why are ICE agents being paid during the shutdown, but not air traffic controllers? 🤨

Sorry about that, that was a video of the freeze frame, here's a picture for sharing, or keeping, just to giggle at.

Because of pressure from Oregon Democrats, Oregon’s SNAP recipients are now receiving their full benefits. www.koin.com/news/oregon/...

I was thinking maybe we could try taking out our phones at the grocery store checkout and ask for a discount from the current prices by playing them a clip of Trump saying they’ve all come down. He is the president, so they should honor that.

Trump says grocery prices are down and he doesn’t want to hear about people complaining about affordability. Someone tell him to take a trip to Kroger or Meijer — where eggs still cost more than his promises and every aisle is a reminder that he’s full of it.

“He’s having a seizure and they’re trying to rip the baby out of her hands”

The Sociopath-In-Chief couldn't be bothered to even turn his head in the direction of a man in the midst of a medical emergency who collapsed in his office. Completely incapable of empathy, the EPSTEIN Files can't be released soon enough. 25/47

New York millionaires: threatening to flee the city since 2009

Don't worry!!🇺🇸 I have been labeled MANY THINGS even by my own side!! I think we're intolerant of authoritarianism, narcissism,racism and misogyny controlling our government!!!! "WE THE PEOPLE" will deal with this threat that's in our government,right now!!! Stand firm!!!

Don’t forget fascist Ashley Hinson (current #IA02)

From this day forward, my district's U.S. "Representative" Ashley Hinson shall be known as #MAGAshley. She belongs nowhere near the U.S. Senate. And she does not belong in the U.S. House. C'mon, Iowa. Do the right thing and vanquish this #MAGAshley phony.

Ashley Hinson is going to claim the government shutdown is causing 250,000 Iowans to lose their SNAP benefits on Nov 1st – but she is lying to Iowans because she and this administration want to use struggling families and starving children as pawns in their political games.

Zach Wahls, US Senate candidate, was in Cedar Rapids today to convene and lead a rally to “protect our health care” under attack by Ashley Hinson and Republicans. Affordable Care Act tax credits for working people are expiring, and Republicans already voted to take away funding for Medicaid.

Ashley Hinson and the republicans are pitting sick Iowans against hungry Iowans. As a dad and a state senator, I refuse to be silent.

Affordable Care Act premiums are set to skyrocket because politicians like Ashley Hinson would rather bailout their billionaire donors than support everyday Iowans. We need to reopen the government and keep healthcare costs low. It's that simple. abcnews.go.com/US/insane-ac...

This is an excellent idea!!!

Walmart, McDonalds and Amazon are the largest employers of people who require SNAP assistance. The CEOs earned between 18-40 million last year, 1000x their median employee income. They took billions in profits, while their workers relied on SNAP to survive. Wanna fix fraud and abuse? Fix that.

The United Nations has just declared that the U.S. has committed war crimes.

The abuse of power is obscene

✔️✔️✔️💯

If we don't test for COVID, then there's no COVID! If there's no flights, then there's no late flights! Brilliant!

The Trump administration tells the Supreme Court it can’t be compelled to fully fund SNAP because paying out the money would “irreparably harm” the government, while SNAP beneficiaries … *won’t* be irreparably harmed by going hungry? The balance of equities here is completely upside down.

Jack Smith just told Sen. Chuck Grassley AGAIN that he’s ready to testify publicly about his investigations into Trump. His lawyers say he’s simply waiting on DOJ authorization and wants Americans to hear the facts directly. Why are Republicans stalling? Let him speak.
