SNAP is a lifeline for workers in low-wage jobs.

Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker.

Don’t be angry at workers for using food stamps.

Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.

We’re all ANTIFA, Donald; at least, all decent, patriotic Americans are.

“This is where we are. Donald Trump, with the help of his sycophants, is waging war against our own country. And he’s doing it for no good reason besides his hunger for power and his sadistic, sociopathic need to seek vengeance against his perceived enemies.”

One thing about the case before SCOTUS on whether Trump had authority to impose tariffs is that if they rule he did not, billions in refunds must be issued by the US govt to companies who paid them, who will likely pocket that cash even if they passed the tariffs on to customers.

Full bore authoritarian.
Extraordinarily corrupt. I watched FCC chair Brendan Carr's full interview on Hannity. Carr basically said straight out that coverage of Trump he deems overly hostile can be decreed contrary to the "public interest," and thus grounds for yanking licenses:

Their “frustration” is irrelevant. Who cares? They know RFK Jr is dangerous, unfit, & is going to hurt a lot of people. But their fear of retribution from Trump is the deciding factor in all their inaction. They put their political survival over the lives and health of Americans.

As I watched a group of survivors of abuse standing outside our nation’s Capitol, I had two immediate thoughts:

The first was: the courage of these women is beyond measure.

The next was: this is a second act of violence against them.
