The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

So just extend healthcare tax credits for poor people?
Rep. Mike Rogers: "The group that manages our nuclear stockpile -- the carryover funding they've been using is about to run out. They will have to layoff 80% of their employees. These are not employees that you want to go home."

Honestly people who believed the initial @wsj.com lies about the bullets just failed a basic media literacy test.
The WSJ is just printing white wing press releases and if you don’t know that by now I don’t know what to tell you.

Don’t let them tell you he’s joking.

He’s putting armed troops in the streets.

Not a joke. Not a drill.
Trump: "The line is that I'm a dictator, but I stop crime. So a lot of people say, 'You know, if that's the case, I'd rather have a dictator.'"

To Donald Trump and his administration:

If you hurt my people, nothing will stop me — not time or political circumstance — from making sure you face justice under our constitutional rule of law.

Americans will visit Japan and post on social media, “Japan is living in 2075,” and meanwhile they’re just talking about a functioning public transportation system and healthcare not bankrupting people.

America is beautiful, contradictory, unfinished. I am proud of our country even as we constantly strive to make it better, to protect and deepen our democracy, to fulfill its promise for each and every person who calls it home.

Happy Independence Day. No Kings in America.

Thinking right now about that period 14 months ago when lefties were portraying Joe Biden as something akin to a fascist dictator. I took a lot of heat for saying people were being ridiculous and that those attacks on Biden would age extremely poorly if Trump won. And now here we are.

TDS stands for Trump Derangement Syndrome, but it should also stand for Transphobia Derangement Syndrome — because transphobia truly destroys people’s brains like few other forms of bigotry I’ve ever seen.

The last few days have truly been a low point for the American news media. And it’s all because journalists in this country—and their corporate masters—lack the courage to say what they all know and say endlessly in private:

That Trump is stupid, and nuts.

I did an event in DC & there was a party for donors etc after. Was talking to 2 ppl & I said "Things are so bad." They said "No this is how it is. Things swing one way, then another. It's normal."

That's when I realized why Dems are toothless. They have no idea what this is. Frogs boiling in water.

The disparity btwn what’s actually happening in Los Angeles and the way it’s being mischaracterized is one of the biggest stress tests of modern media in recent memory. Botted socials, AI, old clips, declining literacy—it’s like seeing a broken emergency response system hit by a storm.
