The SNAP contingency fund holds around $6 billion.

Trump refuses to spend it on the American people.

The same guy who just fast-tracked $40 billion to Argentina.

Trump thinks Argentina deserves our money while he lets Americans starve.

"Violence against the truth." That's what we are up against. It goes beyond this short video discussing the all-out assault on neurodivergent people in the United States. Listen for the last line. We are dealing with violence being done to the very CONCEPT of truth and honesty.
We have people in power making broad claims around certain drugs and autism that have been continuously disproven.

"If you are still supporting Israel in the year 2025... you do not have a normal, healthy sense of empathy and morality."
Pastor Baldwin of Liberty Fellowship in Kalispel, MT is one of the few #Christian voices willing to speak up regarding the true depravity of #Zionist #Israel. While mainstream evangelicals rabidly sup...

A lot of terrible things are happening—but a wannabe dictator thinking he alone can decide who does or doesn’t deserve the rights of U.S. citizenship? That’s a full-blown crisis.

Our rights aren’t suggestions. They’re not negotiable. And they sure as hell aren’t subject to one man’s delusions.

So, the President gets to receive a $400m airplane as a gift, but my kids can only have five pencils each for the school year. Sounds an awful lot like a fascist kleptocratic dictatorship to me.

When does he come out onto the Truman Balcony and fire a gold-plated AK-47 into the air?

What are we doing? The time for snarling outrage has long past! I dare you to read this and not feel absolute fucking DESPAIR for these children.
One of the most shocking things I have read for a while:

My son is not damaged. My family is not destroyed. We embrace his autism and we hope he does too when he is older and can understand how amazing he is!
Autistic people of all abilities are cool and rad and deserve to be here.

Anybody? Anybody outraged enough to do something substantive yet?
Don't worry, none of the MAGAs who screeched about Democrats not standing up during the State of the Union when the biggest enemy cancer research in America has ever had used a pediatric brain cancer patient as a prop are going to take this deportation of a _U.S. citizen_ sitting down

Huh. Beginning to think this is a feature and not a bug. Of both Christianity and Trumpism.

Tariffs might be Trump’s favorite word. To legendary investor Warren Buffett, there’s less to be excited about.

“Tariffs are actually — we’ve had a lot of experience with them — they’re an act of war, to some degree,” Buffett said. They serve as a tax on goods and could raise prices for consumers.

The President of the United States has repeatedly demonstrated that his loyalty to arguably the greatest enemy of our country and the free world in general is far greater than his loyalty to the American people and our constitution. When the fuck is someone going to do something about it?

Sometimes it feels like I’m going crazy, because there is something that is right in front of our faces, has been for years, and nobody of consequence ever says it:
Donald Trump works for Vladimir Putin.
How much more proof does anyone need? And what is anybody going to do about it?

Treason in the Oval Office today. America switched sides to join the genocidal, homicidal, mad man in Moscow. Democracy dies under the throttling hands of a pathetic coward.

This normalization of one of the most radical, dangerous noms in presidential history is genuinely stunning. Even for the New York Times. To write a report like this that gives no indication of why Patel would be opposed other than to affably say he has a "hard-charging" philosophy...not journalism.
Patel’s Warm Senate Welcome Reflects the G.O.P.’s Turn Against the F.B.I.
Senate Republicans have largely embraced President-elect Donald J. Trump’s pick to run the bureau, demonstrating that his anti-F.B.I. stance is now party orthodoxy.
