Came across this Bronski Beat video after a Reddit poster was looking for a similar thing and OMG did they nail 2025 back in 1984. We need to make this our anthem.

YES!!
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.

No Dems in Senate should cave without Actual ACA credits extended not just a worthless gop promise to negotiate. Don’t be gullible voters are watching!

A deal without clean ACA is NO DEAL.
! A key group of Senate Democrats is leaning toward voting for a deal to end the shutdown, provided final details can be worked out like worker protections (Gift link)
(Deal does NOT include an ACA extension.)

I wish the press would have said that
Trump on SNAP: “Our country has to remain very liquid because of problems, catastrophes, wars… We have to remain liquid. We can’t give everything away.”
REMINDER: Trump just have $40 billion away to Argentina.

I wish the press would have said that
Psst! Hey, Senate Dems, now would be a great time to demand concessions from GOP leadership.
Don’t end the shutdown unless they fully fund ACA, reverse the shutdown firings, undo some of the DOGE cuts, and have a vote to release the Epstein files.
You have leverage after last night. Use it.

Trump declares that Republicans have lost the shutdown. Absolutely zero reason for Dems to cave at this point

People fucking hate this guy. They fucking hate ICE. They fucking hate how much power he has. He is at 63% overall disapproval to 37% approval. That's lower than their poll after January 6th. And this poll was done before he started intentionally starving people. I wish our media would reflect this.

⬇️ The denial of miscarriage care because it has a whiff of abortion is unbelievably cruel. These services for pregnant women were routine; now vilified/scrutinized for legality so hospitals just say no. Women should be able to choose abortion or not without taking their lives into their hands.
Today at The Argument we're publishing something very different.
A mother in Georgia wrote to us after her IUD failed. Her email said:
"…if our policies weren’t so illiberal, I very well might have decided to stay pregnant." www.theargumentmag.com/p/an-abortio...

Yup. This morning the hubs and I discussed how some SNAP recipients may not even know funding was cut off until their card is denied at the checkout, and we agreed that if we see that happen, we pay, no questions asked. Even if they’re wearing a Trump hat.

NEW: ICE is planning to build a shadow deportation network in Texas. A proposal outlines a 24/7 transport operation run by armed contractors—turning Texas into the logistical backbone of an industrialized deportation machine.

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.
Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.
The people who need help are not the problem.
It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.
