I want more people to care that SNAP benefits are being cut off on November 1. 40% of SNAP beneficiaries are children. This is callous and vile.

I like what Newsom is doing.
I like what Pritzker is doing.
I like what Mamdani is doing.
We need all hands on deck NOW.
We can worry about the presidential race LATER.
Once we secure its relevance.

Until we pass a nationwide ban on gerrymandering (which we need), Democrats should gerrymander every state to the fullest extent. 52-0 in CA, 17-0 in IL, and so on. No more unilateral disarmament. Time to get serious about fighting back.

genuinely an impeccable way to teach kids that poverty is an artificial social construct and the cops use violence to enforce it
also Friar Tuck is one of cinema’s greatest Catholics I am serious

Here's where I struggle honestly. We're told we are too helicoptery and protective as parents and we're stunting our kids. But then...gestures wildly around...this!
We can't win. It feels like such a bind sometimes. How do you foster your child's independence in a failed state?

It’s a terrible bill. It will literally kill people. The most vulnerable among us will suffer as the wealthiest benefit. It’s perverse. I wish there were something I could do. But alas, I am only a U.S. Senator from Alaska whose “no” vote would kill the bill. So I voted yes. You get it.

Once again, for the folks in back.
It is a bad idea to arrest people in courthouses. This discourages people, innocent and guilty alike, from coming to court to address their problems legally and peacefully -- which means they will instead solve their problems through other-than-legal methods.

📌The only thing we know for sure is that the new pope will be a man, because first and foremost it's ALWAYS about empathizing power over women.
(This odious patriarchal thinking is also a large part why the United States has never had a woman as its president, and why we are in this terrible mess.)
