Crazy to be seeing the northern lights (aurora borealis) this far South in Denver Colorado. Here is a 10 second exposure from an iPhone.

If you watch one video this week then watch this one by Stacey Abrams.
Stacey Abrams - Lawyer, former Georgia State Representative describes the implications, for Dems siding with Republicans.

Discouraging. How do the democrats expect the people to stand behind them?

That’s a question that has to be answered.

Senate Dems. It’s time to cut Schumer off at the knees.

You have to have voters before courting donors.

Someone posting as Alt CDC?! Sounds like as MAGA conspiracy theorist. Toxic gaslighting takes several forms that all require stupidity to follow.
If white people stopped following these lazy, uninformed, rage bait accounts maybe they’d stop parroting stupid nonsense.
Honestly, I haven't seen much in the news about (most) reps doing *anything*

From what people are saying here, sounds like this poster is reading the wrong things. (& if I'm not seeing it in the news, I'm guessing a lot of others also aren't.)

So please share more examples & am happy to amplify.

It’s starting to feel like all MAGA Republicans are deadmen walking if this keeps up. Seeing Nebraskans booing every position Mike Flood has is amazing.

This will cause noticeable fallout once the bitter cold starts biting.
Millions of low-income families are at risk of losing heating aid this winter. The shutdown has frozen funding for LIHEAP, which helps nearly 6 million households pay their energy bills — on top of suspended SNAP benefits and rising fuel costs.

Shutdown threatens to delay home heating aid for millions of low-income families
With temperatures beginning to drop in areas across the U.S., some states are warning that funding for the Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program is being delayed because of the federal government ...

Looks like that is the final word from MAGA Republicans.

A very large minority of red state racists are being starved by the very MAGA Republicans they voted for.

Karma is an absolute bitch for MAGA voters 😈
Fuck anyone that made this possible.
The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse.
I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email

Murder charges? ICE facilities were they ever humane? Under Taco, the ICE facilities sound like concentration camps. They aren’t properly feeding people, they’re not allowed to bathe n sleeping on the floor or on soiled blankets. Inmates in prisons have it better than ICE detainees! #iceout

Hopefully some of the blue states trying to do their own CDC type of oversight might be prepared.

To all the MAGA red states you’re pretty much on your own with NIH Secretary RFK’s antics.

Stephen Miller is no longer afraid to step out looking presidential. The MAGA Sycophancy Congress are afraid of even an unelected or unappointed racist running the White House.
Q: Would the administration consider putting troops on the ground in any capacity in Venezuela?

STEPHEN MILLER: These are terrorists and they're gonna be killed

A police officer talking down to ice is patriotism

I wasn't aware of this until now. So, just in case you weren't either this bit of news is distressing.

I would like to know who the anonymous donor is that's paying the military's payroll during the gov't shutdown.

Didn’t watch 60 minutes but this is so very dumb. Not only is it self serving it’ll cause a vast amount of animosity & violence the U.S. will never be rid of.

Looking to boycott ICE. Here is one way.

#BoycottSpotify
Spotify customer service is immediately ending conversations if you ask about them airing ICE advertisements on the platform.

Cancel your Spotify subscription.

ICE is so messed up.

Imagine being USPS mail carrier, a federal worker, and having ICE shaking you down with one of two with his hand on a gun.

ICE are dangerous racists on the loose looking for a reason in the U.S.

Poop force 47. Yes he actually posted this shit.

Posting this again so people continue to resist in the most optimal way…also use 47 now instead of 45.
Some solid advice we need to listen to and share
