AOC: "It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?"

The hemp provision in this appropriations package wipes out nearly 100% of legal hemp products overnight: killing jobs, crushing farmers, and overriding 23 state laws that already regulate hemp responsibly," Rand Paul wrote on social media.

Basically those fascist goons are like modern Vandals gawking at the artifacts of a civilization they simply cannot understand. One supposes it won't be long before they take a sledgehammer to public art of that sort.

Making fun of our neighborhoods and communities is disgusting.

Greg Bovino and his masked agents are not here to make Chicago safer. As children are tear gassed and U.S. citizens detained, they are posing for photo ops and producing reality TV moments. blockclubchicago.org/2025/11/10/b...
Border Patrol Agents Pose At The Bean For Apparent Photo Op
The photo op came after agents tear-gassed a Little Village street and were spotted in the area numerous times. At the Bean, one agent shouted, "Everyone say, 'Little Village!'"

Senator Murphy says there is no sugarcoating, no spin just honesty and resolve. He fears that Trump gets stronger, not weaker, because of this acquiescence. He’s angry too but anger isn’t enough. We’ve got to keep fighting for democracy!

With the first nine days of November in the books, and the unseasonably warm days ahead, the first two weeks of November will end up the warmest on record in #Albuquerque, going back to 1892.
The exact value for 2025 will come into focus day by day, but should be very close to 56.0°F. Stay tuned!

So the "deal" the Senate is voting on includes "no guarantee from Republicans to extend the health care subsidies that have been at the heart of the funding fight, but Democrats involved in the talks believe that House and Senate GOP leaders will negotiate on a compromise in the coming weeks".

Breaking News: The Trump administration told states to undo any steps to provide full food stamp benefits to low-income families, threatening financial penalties if the states do not comply.

I'm sitting here imagining the Right's reaction had Biden done this.
