Loud, proud, angry liberal. FDR was a god. Spiritual, perhaps actual, descendant of Boudicca. No DMs unless I know you IRL.

Trump is demanding that GOP side with him over Epstein's victims, Rep Ansari tells me. She had a harrowing exchange with one victim who recounts how her mom had cancer and he exploited that.
Also note her mockery of network disclaimers on Trump. More like this, Ds:

I asked Georgetown law prof David Super wtf is going on with this latest demand for states to claw back benefits already sent out.
He says the law doesn't allow for this, and if the USDA is mad that states already sent out SNAP money, too bad—they were following USDA's own guidance. Full comments:

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 95th day out of the last 107.
12 days of work in 107 days.
With full pay and benefits.
The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.
It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Andrew Cuomo gave more money in taxpayer subsidies to Elon Musk than the entire cost of Zohran Mamdani’s free bus plan.
It’s not unreasonable or radical to want our tax dollars to go to programs that help us, instead of as giveaways to billionaires.

There’s no screening for ovarian cancer and it’s really difficult to spot: you can’t squidge your ovaries in the shower to check for lumps. Also it’s very good at masquerading at other things, like IBS and diverticulitis.
Please take a look at this list of symptoms - and share if you can.

If ICE agents begins harassing voters on the way to vote on Tuesday, we need local prosecutors to charge the ICE officers with state law crimes. We need to send a message for 2026 that they will be swiftly arrested.

In 2 days, Donald Trump will cut off SNAP benefits for more than 3 million New Yorkers. Not because the USDA doesn't have the money, but because he thinks starving people helps him politically.
@reprileyny.bsky.social and I led a letter demanding that Trump reverse course and fund SNAP now.
