The government said they aren’t releasing SNAP benefits in November — but ALDI is helping families out. Their Thanksgiving meal bundle feeds 10 people for just $40! 🦃 Available now through Christmas Eve, it includes 21 items (like a 14-lb turkey + sides). Share this with everyone!

The ACA’s enhanced premium tax credits are at the center of the ongoing government shutdown. The tax credits have led to a more than doubling of Marketplace enrollment, but they'll expire at end of this year if Congress doesn’t act to extend them.
Here are some key facts about the credits from KFF

I’m autistic. Not because of Tylenol.
Not because of vaccines.
Not because of some headline.
I’m autistic because that’s how
my brain works. Stop treating us
like a problem. Start listening to us.

1. He didn’t work for Walz. Deliberate disinformation.
2. It’s not at all surprising that right wing cultists would try and spread misinformation and disinformation about this horrific assassination.
3. Report those who do.

I mean, literally, the answer to this is "I am federally prohibited from telling you anything about my students without a subpoena or judicial warrant; if you have a subpoena or judicial warrant, please submit it to [Legal Officer/Office] to ensure it is in compliance with all relevant federal laws"
If you have students who are trans no you don’t. If you have students of color who may be affected by ICE no you don’t. If anyone asks you gender or racial the makeup of your class you don’t have to tell them.
Protect your class and protect your students by not complying in advance. They trust you.

It goes after "social transition" and threatens arrests.
I will go through line by line, as I have the last 3 nights.
