Meanwhile, CEOs make 280 times the typical worker today.

The system is rigged.

If you see any business owners belittling SNAP recipients for accepting government money to get through tough times, maybe look them up on @propublica.org's PPP Loan Tracker to see if they got any of the $793B in bailout money (96% of which was forgiven)

People should use their SNAP benefits for whatever they think they need. Both because any effort you make to micromanage purchases is inefficient and cumbersome and because people who need help aren’t obligated to perform for or satisfy others in order to eat.

These stock prices are indicators of extraction success, not societal well-being, not good business practices.

In 2025, causing profound human suffering is profit-maximizing behavior.
Forty million people are poised to lose food access. Nearly three quarters of a million federal workers are furloughed. Corporations are laying off tens of thousands at a time. We face the worst unemployment crisis since the pandemic. Farmers are broke.

Today the stock market reached a record high.

I keep thinking about how SNAP subsidizes American farmers and feeds American children and their families and cuts to SNAP will fuck farmers and starve children and their families and that's a pretty batshit thing to actively want to do

“Just go to a food bank, a church or a charity”

For every meal the food bank provides, the SNAP program provides 9.

Even if donations are rapidly scaled up, they won’t be able to meet the needs of 42 million Americans who are about to go hungry.

It’s not sustainable.

Food insecurity is ALWAYS a political choice. Famine is ALWAYS manmade. People go hungry because of other people’s decisions. We have more than enough food for everyone, and enormous amounts of it are wasted—literally thrown in the garbage—on purpose.

I constantly draw strength from the fact that my parents grew up when it was worse than this. When white people were lynching people in the streets and bombing Black churches and integrated schools. And they still did not live in fear. My parents thrived, loved, and lived. And I can too.

She really thought she was cookin'. He's going to have a thoughtful, meaningful response to the gotchas because he's not parroting a list of punchy sound bites. Mamdani clearly understands the intricacies of what he's fighting for AND what stands in the way of good policy.
MacCALLUM: Andrew Cuomo tomorrow night in that debate, he's gonna say 'I'm gonna bring 5,000 more police officers to the street.' Will you match that?
