The President has always had the power to fully fund SNAP benefits in November. Now he’s being ordered to do so by tomorrow.
 
It’s cruel and heartless to withhold food assistance from Americans in need.

“Congress is about to impose massive harm on tens of millions of Americans,” @jonathanbchait.bsky.social writes, “in order to benefit a handful of other Americans who least need the help. The bill almost seems designed to generate a political backlash”:
They Didn’t Have to Do This
By passing Donald Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act, congressional Republicans have talked themselves into an incomprehensibly reckless plan.

“A U.S. citizen!” And now he’s missing.

Adrian Martinez tried to defend a man ICE was harassing. Video shows six agents swarming him. He struggles but doesn’t lay hands on them. They take him to the ground & shove him into a CBP vehicle.

Abuse of power. Keep recording. Don’t stop.

Kristi Noem thinks her lie about Sen. Padilla not identifying himself is a real own when, in fact, her supposed inability to recognize a US Senator--who is the chair of the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Immigration, Citizenship & Border Safety--makes her goons' thuggery even more disgraceful.

Right now Speaker Mike Johnson is calling republicans trying to kill a bill to give new moms in congress a leave without having to miss votes. Instead, he should be calling us back to put Trump in check and stop this assault on our economy & retirement. We must oppose these tariffs!
