Clark: So what are we doing here today? You have already voted to dismantle medicaid, the largest health care program in America. A program that covers 40% of all births in this country. 40% of children in this country. 40% of disabled people in this country.

For so long they’ve done what they please in a coordinated effort to eliminate the middle class. I’ve been watching it since 1974. Has always been the same. Yesterday’s Senate vote is further proof of it.

Imagine having a trillion dollars and falling asleep knowing you could help feed and help the entire planet and still be the richest man. I wonder what happens to these monsters when they pass…

CHICAGO: “My uncle was on his way home from getting groceries on his bike — they grabbed him and choked him and punched him… he’s a kind hardworking man. They’re racially profiling people.”

Trump’s ICE goons put an elderly man in the hospital and nearly choked him to death.

it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions

"Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"

Senate Democrats about to roll over. Goddamnit.
This is pathetic - to give in over "a promised vote" - but this is what they were always going to do.

"A handful of Democrats will supply some eight votes for a new short-term CR in exchange for a promised vote on the ACA tax credits."

They are gonna trust the GOP.🤡

Frank Bisignano ran Fiserv into the ground.

How can we trust him to run our Social Security system?
Demand for Trump's Social Security Chief Bisignano to Resign After $30 Billion Implosion of Former Company | Common Dreams
The former CEO of Fiserv has been accused of causing chaos, with the company's stock plummeting by 40% and $30 billion in market value erased. Should we trust him with our hard-earned Social Security ...

BREAKING: Fiserv lost 40% of its value because the former CEO, Frank Bisignano, is a liar.

But Bisignano is Trump's buddy, so he can only fail up.

He's now in charge of your Social Security (and the IRS).

Q: What did you mean when you said you're prepared to send 'more than the National Guard' into American cities?

TRUMP: if I want to enact a certain act, I'd be allowed to do whatever I want. The courts wouldn't get involved. Nobody would. I could send Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines -anybody I want

Welch: "This has nothing to do with the shutdown. The law requires and the funds are available to continue SNAP right now without any interruption. So that is a decision the president is making on his own to allow people to go hungry."

Mike Johnson on SNAP benefits ending Saturday: "The White House has all the pain dials turned back to just a 0 or a 1 as best they can, but when you're out or resources they go all the way up. And it's out of their hands, it's out of our hands."

Yes, they’re using the shutdown to turn off SNAP benefits.

No, they don’t have to.

SNAP, the country's largest anti-hunger program, dates back to the Great Depression and has never been disrupted this way. Most recipients are seniors, families with kids, and those with disabilities.
