Food is essential to survival.
People of all ages deserve to have enough food to eat.
Grateful for SNAP & hope we may find ways to continue providing it.

There are reports that the *entire* office of special education at the US Dept of Education has been cut. These hardworking folks ensure kids with disabilities get equal access to a quality education.
America’s children deserve better than this.

The United States Government is severely compromised. The President will probably start his online pharmacy called TrumpRX.

Within minutes of showing up at the IRS, a twenty-something software engineer dispatched from DOGE began demanding access to the tax collection agency’s most protected internal databases — including the one containing the personal and financial data for millions of American taxpayers.
‘Delete’ is one of their favorite terms: Inside DOGE’s IRS takeover ahead of tax season | CNN Politics
The chaos at the Internal Revenue Service began almost immediately after the first envoy from the Department of Government Efficiency arrived last month at the agency’s Washington, DC, headquarters.

Trump & Musk are trying to fire 100,000+ civil servants right now - including over 1,000 VA employees.
Purges are happening at SBA, Energy, Education & more.
Firing this many critical employees at once could make it impossible for our government to provide BASIC services.

Where in our public school enrollment process did we consent to giving our children’s PII to PowerSchool (or anyone else)?
An inevitable outcome of the monopolization of mass media is the reporting about the massive and very potentially dangerous PowerSchool breach has been fragmented and hyper-localized
This is a more, but not entirely, unified accounting
