The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

A seeming bit of history tonight as Ghazala Hashmi becomes the first Asian American to win statewide office in Virginia - and the first Muslim woman to win statewide office *anywhere* in the United States.

Why wouldn't this exact same logic have applied to Hitler? I mean, some of his supporters had puppies and were kind to their grandmas. If you can't call anything fascist unless/until *literally everyone supporting it is a comic book villain*, then you just can't ever identify fascism.

I find it deeply disconcerting the way they keep “teasing” the big info they have on autism.
If there was a real scientific breakthrough, they wouldn’t wait.
This isn’t about science, it’s about discriminating against neurodivergent people.
It’s eugenics.

Feel like I’m going insane with the revisionist history that Charlie Kirk fostered open debate. He chilled speech and his targeting of professors for wrongthink led to threats, harassment, and being forced out of their jobs. His legacy is chilling speech right now, about him

If I could ban Democrats from using one word right now it would be “distraction.” None of it is a distraction. It is all the bad stuff
@primaryschool.bsky.social Tim Miller interviewed Hakeem Jeffries and it just dropped- i’m 15 minutes in and already losing my mind. No less than three times does Jeffries describe the DC occupation as a “malignant distraction, but a distraction we have to deal with”. Not inspiring confidence lol

Oz: "When the program was created 60 years ago, it never dawned on anyone that you would take able-bodied individuals who could work & put them on Medicaid. Today the average able-bodied person on Medicaid who doesn't work, they watch 6.1 hours of TV or just hang out. Go out & try to get a job."
