What too many people don't realize about SNAP and ACA govt money, is that it acts the way farm subsidies do.
It brings money into local infrastructures of food distribution (grocery stores) & medical care (drs, clinics, hosp'ls, etc). These businesses need that income to run and keep prices down.

Todd Blanche dissembling and obfuscating on Meet the Press.
Repeating ad nauseum regime talking point: blame MN leaders for not having local police helping ICE.
Welker repeats: "Again, there are 600 local officers [in MN], compared to 3000 ICE agents."

The last real elections we had were the 2 Obama campaigns. Then the Citizens United corruption snowball rolled over everything.

My first thought of seeing the "before shooting" video is that the murdered man is TALL. Any tall man will tell you that they frequently get challenged by those intimidated by their height. My husband is 6' 5" and our son is 6' 6". They can tell you stories ....

they're executing moms and nurses in the street. they're using preschoolers as bait. they're stealing people's dads and grandmas and children. they're tear gassing babies. they're staking out schools. there is no remedy but abolition. any proposal that doesn't start there is an act of violence.

Remember when these guys lied that they were preserving Confederate monuments because you had to leave up the whole messy contested historical record rather than erasing history?
More than 400 years of history and a decade of advocacy were torn down Thursday afternoon when National Park Service employees removed every single display at the President’s House.

I follow a feed titled "Milwaukee w/o sports" and every other post is sport related.
Does "w/o" not mean "without" for everyone? Or is keeping sports talk out of feeds difficult?

I follow some accts to keep an eye on them, but don't consider my follow to equal agreement, condoning their choices, or respect.

Why did 7 of your colleagues vote to give them more money? Getting so tired of Dems not able to stand solidly together in the most dangerous time of US in modern history?

Hi, social worker here.
It's one thing to see it on TV. It's another to experience the ripples of these heinous actions for yourself.
ICE isn't just destroying some families, they are creating a collective trauma that will remain in our epigenetic inheritance for multiple generations.

Republicans love to talk about fraud, but they never actually do anything to crack down on it!
Trump continues to hand out pardons to fraudsters as Republicans protect programs rife with waste and fraud. We SHOULD be cracking down — and it’s time they get on board.

It’s important to note that even though the importers jacked up prices on the American consumer, it’s the corporations that get these refunds. Not the consumers. So the rich, as always, will get richer while American consumers will have paid the price. END/
