The average US taxpayer spends $36 a year on SNAP

You know what they spend on corporate subsidies? $670

Poor and disabled people who need food are not the problem

If you’re angry about “your money” feeding people but not angry it’s giving tax cuts to the wealthy?

You’re doing their dirty work.

An estimated 15.7 million workers use SNAP. It’s a lifeline for those in low-wage jobs.

Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker.

Don’t be angry at workers for using food stamps.

Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.

We don’t need the Heritage Foundation’s opinion on nuclear testing. They should go read a Bible instead and try to figure out why their master plan is to starve children and take away health care from the elderly.

The Bezos-owned Washington Post wants you to know that there’s nothing wrong with the Bezos and Friends-funded President Oligarch Ballroom for Doing Bribes and Stuff, sponsored by Jeff Bezos.

Also, its owner in no way resembles a steroidal thumb that sprouted like a potato, that’s on the record.

Our military is being paid by an anonymous donor.

Our WH East Wing was demolished for a ballroom - paid for by donors.

These aren’t acts of benevolence or patriotism.

This is the oligarchy assuming control, insidiously becoming part of how we function.

Every American should reject it.

Denouncing modern art (AKA "Degenerate Art") was the only part of the Nazi playbook that had been missing from Stephen Miller's commentaries.
Stephen Miller: "The scandal is how Democrats & the left scarred the landscape of our country w/grotesque so-called modern art that celebrates ugliness ... very importantly, President Trump is making sure it's in the neo-classical design around which our nation's architecture has long been directed"

To be clear:
These donations are bribes, made anonymously to conceal Trump’s corruption.

In Trump's America, you're an order of magnitude more likely to get attacked on the street by ICE and the National Guard than by any foreign gang member.

In Trump's America, you're a hell of a lot more likely to lose your healthcare due to Trump's tax giveaways to billionaires, than because an emergency room doctor patched up an undocumented immigrant.

Facebook deleted me. No explanatory email. No way to reactivate or appeal. I'll be looking for friends from there over here & breaking the habit of finding info (local stuff) shared in groups there. If you knew a toy hedgehog on FB, it was probably me. Say hi.

If the FBI shows up at your door, and doesn’t have a warrant, you are permitted to refuse to answer questions until you talk to your lawyer. You are not required to let them in the house without a warrant.
Apparently Trump is now sending the FBI to the homes of innocent protestors, in part to find out who is behind the "criminal conspiracy" arranging these protests.

The real reason is obviously the chilling effect on free speech for those attending.

“This is a take-one-for-the-team moment.

Our country is dying, and Jack Smith knows it.

He’s asking to testify publicly, so you know he’s got receipts.

Doing this paints an even larger target on his back, and he's saying, "Fuck it."

Go Jack!”

Since the House is in recess why don't Democrats interview Jack Smith on their own, in public and televise it on MSNBC with Rachel Maddow as moderator?

Our library delivery driver was threatened yesterday - guy followed him to a library, said he'd shoot him. Claimed "all the folks" from our Library System drive like maniacs & he was going to mess our guy up. Should have reported that jerk to the police.

Carney: But this decades-long process of an ever-closer economic relationship with the United States is now over. And as a consequence, many of our former strengths as a country—more particularly, our economic strengths based on close ties to America—have now become our vulnerabilities… #cdnpoli

Never mind every other single abominable or corrupt thing to this miserable moment, the extrajudicial and unevidenced execution of 34 human beings by the U.S. Navy on the orders of a U.S. President acting in peacetime is sufficient for his impeachment and conviction.

If we were a republic, I mean.
