@atti1711.bsky.social MAGA Congress is absolutely using SNAP as a distraction to push Dems to cave on saving healthcare and Medicaid! Dems cannot cave!

In the article below, you can learn how Peter Thiel and Palantir have seized control of all core government infrastructure. Thiel, Karp, and all of the techno-fascist billionaire friends of theirs are the biggest threats to democracy, and they’re moving rapidly, in the cover of American bureaucracy.
If you do one thing today, read and share this link. It is the tech oligarchs’ plan to take over the government and build a post-democratic America, proven to be well underway.

To understand the tech bros, we must think like them—they view our democracy as an outdated system that must be replaced:

Alex Karp and Peter Thiel are two of the worst people on this planet running one of the most evil companies to ever exist—we should do whatever we can to make Palantir go bankrupt.

Students across the country are relaunching campaigns for their colleges to cut ties with Starbucks, ahead of our union's potential ULP strike nationwide.

“The goal is to show the solidarity of students with Starbucks workers."

As Starbucks baristas threaten a national strike, UH students are adding pressure of their own — asking administrators to sever ties with the coffee giant over what they call anti-union tactics.

Republicans shut down the government 39 days ago.

The last time Mike Johnson held a vote in the House was September 19—50 days ago.

Republicans refuse to come to work and reopen the government.

Starbucks baristas at Disneyland’s Downtown Disney store - and across the country - are getting strike-ready unless Starbucks finalizes contracts and ends union-busting by November 13th.

It would take less than ONE DAY’S SALES to finish these contracts.

The New Dem Health Care Working Group met to talk about the barriers too many families face when trying to access care. Every family deserves affordable, reliable health care without risk of bankruptcy. My Dem colleagues & I will keep fighting to break down these barriers & expand health care access

Families shouldn’t have to wonder how they’ll feed their kids because of this Republican gov’t shutdown. Federal workers aren’t getting paid, WIC & SNAP benefits are at risk, & critical programs like Head Start are closing.

Republicans: Do your job. End the shutdown. Put your constituents first.

Thank you to the parents on the Port Gamble S’Klallam Tribal Head Start Policy Council for sharing your stories during this shutdown. The federal government has a responsibility to uphold our commitments to Tribal nations and protect programs like Head Start that support kids and families.

Republicans claim to want to fix our health care system but they’ve just made it worse by gutting Medicaid & failing to extend ACA tax credits. Our neighbors & nation deserves better.

Republicans need to work with us to end this gov’t shutdown, protect health care access, & lower insurance costs.

Head Start is a lifeline for Tribal communities and families. I met with a mother whose children went through the Head Start program with the Port Gamble S’klallam Tribe and heard firsthand how this support has shaped her kids’ future.

It’s been over a month since Adelita Grijalva was elected to the House, but Mike Johnson still refuses to swear her in.

Our organizers on the ground just delivered 10,000 petition signatures demanding action.

Grijalva’s seat would be the decisive 218th vote to release the Epstein Files.

We love it when a plan comes together.

Our grassroots army made more than HALF A MILLION voter contacts across NYC to get out the vote for Mamdani — and it paid off. This is how we mobilize a movement and organize to win.

As a longtime Starbucks customer I’m outraged that they are against there workers unionizing. At one time Starbucks was taught to be a good employer and corporate citizen.

@sbworkersunited.org We stand with you! #NoContractNoCoffee
If Starbucks baristas have to strike, we’re striking too — with our wallets.

Don’t shop at Starbucks if baristas are on strike. No contract, no coffee. Period. #NoContractNoCoffee

FREEDOM OF SPEECH
Is Absolutely The Foundation Of A Free Society
Trump now says it’s “probably illegal” for Seth Meyers to make fun of him.

Sen. Chris Murphy warns: “He actually believes it’s illegal to criticize him.”

Authoritarians don’t hate jokes because they’re mean, they hate them because they reveal the truth.👀 🤡
