Just checking: the republicans that attacked and sent marshals to arrest Texas dems for not showing up to work (in an effort to protect voting rights, btw) are the same republicans that are not showing up to work, yeah?

Did you know that over 1.3M active duty service members and veterans rely on SNAP benefits to feed themselves and their families?

Now you know.

If I were running the DNC, there would be Democratic Party sponsored food relief banks across the country right now that specifically welcomed anyone regardless of party affiliation.

Along with the food, there could be voter registration and links to runforsomething.net

Presenting a plan to show Americans you have a plan is not negotiating. Trump has no plan.
Q: What are the president's plan for preventing rising healthcare costs?

LEAVITT: It's a very good question, and I'll leave that for the president to negotiate that when Democrats vote to reopen the government

WOW: The White House says the president's MAIN PRIORITY is his BALLROOM. SNAP is ending. Subsidies for health care are gong to double and in some instances quadruple plan premiums. The government is shut down. The cost of living is through the roof. And his priority is his ballroom.

Brian Schatz: "This is not about money. There is enough money to bail out Argentina with $20b. There is enough money to purchase a brand new aircraft for $173m for Noem. There is enough money to renovate the WH ballroom. What there isn't enough money for under this Republican government is you."

Fetterman describes Trump trying to steal $230 million from taxpayers as "small ball, and I think we have much bigger problems than worrying about those things."

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.

Democrats should be drawing up legislation right now, this very minute, to bar Trump from helping himself to $230 million in taxpayer funds from DOJ. Challenge Republicans to hold a vote on it. Push this so hard in the media that every GOP Senate and House candidate is pressed to comment on it.

It’s long past time for Speaker Johnson to do his job and swear in Arizona Congresswoman-elect Adelita Grijalva. She won on September 23rd that’s 26 days ago.

"We cannot accept this" is fine, but what are you planning to do about it? What can WE do about it?
An essential feature of authoritarianism is that the leader - not courts - decides who is guilty and who is not.

Santos - who Trump said is getting a commutation bc he “votes Republican” - is the 10th high profile loyalist to get a pardon or clemency.

We cannot accept this.

Purdue student-journalists: marvelous.
IU student-journalists: double down and bit the hand that thinks it feeds you.

And the administrators at IU? You're revealed as trash and unworthy to claim the role of educators. You proved it to your campus and the world.
Last week, the Indiana University administration asked their student newspaper not to print any news stories in the Homecoming edition. When the faculty advisor refused, IU fired him and ended paper printing. So students at the Purdue paper printed the IU edition and drove it down to Bloomington!

The special edition blasted across town features columns from IDS and Exponent editors, alongside QR codes to support both student papers.

Q: Why is the US dollar dropping in value?

A: The US dollar was strong a year ago. Demand for the dollar is now plummeting, thanks in large part to Trump’s antagonistic trade policies which have created global economic uncertainty.

Q: How much of our national debt has been paid down by Trump tariff/tax collection?

A: None. Not one cent. You’re an idiot if you believed this was ever about paying down our national debt. The national debt will continue to soar in order to support massive tax breaks for billionaires.

Q: Why are my electricity bills going up?

A: You are likely (a) in a region impacted by Trump tariffs and retaliatory price hikes in electricity from Canada, or (b) in a region subsidizing billionaire-owned data farms for AI or crypto mining.

It’s not because of immigrants or drag queens.

He was so butthurt by millions protesting his authoritarian regime, he posted an AI clip of him in a fighter jet dumping crap on people exercising their constitutional rights.

It’s the kind of reaction you would expect from a mentally unhinged lunatic or a petulant child.

Not a President.

It's a test run for refusing to sign in new members after the midterms. Normalizing the power of the speaker also deflects from the responsibility of the entire body to uphold democratic processes and the law.

It’s painfully clear. By refusing to swear in Adelita Grijalva, Speaker Johnson’s covering up Jeffrey Epstein’s global sex-trafficking ring.

Hey GOP: Bring back the House, cancel your health care cuts, reopen the government and release the files.
