Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

Disgusting.
I often think of how narrowly Johnson held on to his seat in 2022. Almost unseated by a Black man half his age named Mandela.
@electdemocrats.bsky.social should fight for Wisconsin in 2028. Johnson needs to go.

The American people were lied to about Vietnam, with tragic consequences.

It's been over 20 years since this clip from Michael Moore's 'Fahrenheit 9/11,' and members of Congress still aren't reading bills before voting for them.

Speaker Johnson says there's “a moral component” to Trump's "big, beautiful" bill. Really?
Is it “moral” to cut nutrition assistance for hungry kids?
Is it “moral” to eliminate health care for 13.7 million Americans so the 1% gets a $664 billion tax break?
I don’t think so.

Let’s break this down—because the gaslighting is wild:
📌Oct 2022 – Biden signs EO to cut drug prices
📌Jan 2025 – Trump takes office and kills Biden’s EO to cut drug prices
📌May 2025 – Trump signs his own EO to lower drug prices
Trump canceled Biden’s plan then brought it back w/his name on it.

Just FYI because evidently Fox or OAN or whatever is pushing the lie that America accepted the Statue of Liberty and that’s equivalent to the plane.
Congress VOTED to approve receiving the statue. So congress should vote on the jet

This phrasing of the ICE action in Worcester, MA as a kidnapping is horrifically accurate
You cannot deprive a person of their liberty without either probable cause that the person committed a crime or a warrant to arrest that person
That’s directly stated in the 4th Amendment of the Constitution

The Trump Admin wants to track your ovulation, give medals for having 6+ babies, and hand out $5K per delivery... all while gutting child care, health care, and education.
That’s not pro-family. It’s anti-family.
