So at the beginning of Nov Congress would have been paid, unless they specifically had their pay check held.

I would argue they should donate it because they haven’t worked.

Maybe a good question for reporters to catalog?

Here’s what we all need to prepare for.

Justice KBJ is a brilliant strategist. She is working the rules to compel timely review of the stay in the SNAP case by both the Circuit Court and by the Supreme Court. This is why knowing which SCOTUS justice has supervision of the Circuit you file in is essential.

Elon Musk’s new pay package would feed all forty million Americans on SNAP for the next ten years. He wouldn’t notice the difference but the country would.

How to keep the peaceful resistance energy going 🌊

Stay engaged and involved.

Call your governor, senators, and representatives and demand protections for immigrants, educators, libraries, and the press. Attend local community meetings. Attend school board or city council meetings.

“Instead, by keeping the case for herself and granting the same relief, in contrast, Justice Jackson was able to directly influence the timing in both the First Circuit and the Supreme Court, at least for now.”

There’s a young southern woman on tt doing an experiment: calling churches & asking if they can help her get baby formula, saying she can’t afford it. Of the 30+ she’s called, nearly every church has said no. The ones who said yes were:

Black Baptist Churches
A Mosque

“The instinct to treat Zohran Mamdani as a local New York City phenomenon ignores the reality of the American voters behind his historic win,” Mara Gay writes. “Most of the people who voted for Mr. Mamdani for mayor are at the heart of the Democratic Party coalition, not at its fringes.”
Opinion | What Started as Affordability Politics Has Become Something Deeper
Zohran Mamdani’s campaign ended up winning over some of the exact voters who make up a major part of the Democratic coalition. Why is worth considering.

In 2008, a blogger named Curtis Yarvin called for a future president to kill foreign aid programs as part of a plan to replace democracy with dictatorship.

Now 600,000 people are dead—and 14 million will die by 2030, according to the Lancet. This is the running death toll of tech fascism.

I can think of 747 reasons why they shouldn't. 🤔
