In case you didn’t realize SNAP is corporate welfare.
The Boston Globe identified the companies in Massachusetts that employ the most SNAP recipients. A key stat: "In Massachusetts, 74% of working-age recipients of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program are employed, half of them full-time."

If your admin says "but we need to prepare students for AI-driven careers," you can calmly say no. Reiterate that AI-integration is the result of wild capitalist greed, the technologies themselves aren't "generative" or useful in most careers, and students should focus on process-based learning.

This. THIS is how we should respond to Trump.
Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.
Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

$16,100 increase in annual health insurance costs for a family of four making $130,000 in Maine. $13,700 more for a couple making $85,000 a year in Maryland. In Minnesota that couple would pay $15,500 more next year, $18,100 in Nevada, $23,700 in Kentucky.

The unspoken thing that always gets me is they never, ever acknowledge the real issue-- most people just don't like GOP policies. The solution is never "maybe we should take more popular positions," it's always making sure more people don't get to vote.
Trump: "They're gonna make DC a state and they're gonna make Puerto Rico a state. So now they pick up two states, four senators. They're gonna pick up electoral votes. It's gonna be a very, very bad situation. Now, if we do what I'm saying, they'll most likely never obtain power."

Families shouldn’t have to wonder how they’ll feed their kids because this administration would rather play politics than fully fund SNAP. Courts made clear the tools are there. They’re just choosing not to use them.
Hunger is not a bargaining chip. They should fully fund SNAP.

Open enrollment for ACA healthcare plans has started, and enrollees are seeing what their premium costs will be next year.
Without subsidies, one couple will see their monthly costs increase from $495 to $2,168 — a 300% increase.
This is what Democrats are fighting to prevent.
