SNAP recipients please take a moment and check your balance, it appears they're following court orders this time and loading the benefits.

Whatever they do, ignore promises, promises mean nothing to this regime. The shutdown is a preview of what happens when health insurance skyrockets.
There is a compromise on the table to get this deal done and reopen the government while keeping health insurance premiums down. But the sole problem, plain and simple, is Mike Johnson.

Looks like the Dems will pick up 12 seats in the VA House of Delegates, which will go from 51-49 to 63-37 D-R. That's an honestly shocking result.

We gotta chill out on the MTG stuff. She wants to run for higher office. The party kept her out of the recent senate races. She’s trying to sanewash herself. Let’s not help her.
HOSTIN: You don't believe in QAnon anymore? You've changed?
MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE: No, I haven't changed. I was a victim just like you were of media lies and stuff you read on social media

It’s important to understand that the hosts on Fox are not this stupid. They just think their audience is, and they’ve been proven right for decades.
Fox News host Charlie Hurt "can't square" why Obama won't support Winsome Earle-Sears, since they're both Black

I cannot believe there are still people in my mentions arguing that boycotting an election because the candidates aren’t addressing your issue is a way to get them to pay attention.

Trump is executing people on the high seas by deeming them "enemy combatants" without any proof.
He's also called his political opponents — immigrants, Democrats, protesters — the "enemy within."
Put it together: How close is Trump to ordering attacks on them, too?

All Democratic politicians should be using the destruction of the White House as a backdrop to talk about how Donald Trump is destroying everything we value to enrich himself.
Trump’s tearing down the East Wing to build himself a $350M ballroom while Americans struggle to afford health care.
Senator Ruben Gallego went to the site of the Trump teardown.
