Starting today, 2.4M Americans, including kids, lose SNAP food benefits. Stores like Freshly’s Market in Mississippi that serve low-income communities expect a 35–45% drop in sales.
Children will go hungry & employees at Freshly's lose jobs.
Welcome to trickle-down starvation.

You can cancel the 4th of July; we are no longer free. If there are any rights that the Republicans haven’t gleefully stripped from us, it’s only because they haven’t figured out how.

For nearly a decade, since Election Day 2016, the media and politicians have had a choice: Recognize that we were in a crisis like no other in our lifetimes, or pretend that we aren't. Nearly all politicians, and too many in the media, have chosen the latter.
I thought I was losing my mind when this happened because it was an attempted assassination of a national political leader and it was treated like it was nothing.
We should've made a bigger national crisis of someone breaking into Nancy Pelosi's home & trying to kill her husband. But then, we should've made a bigger national crisis about hundreds of someones breaking into the Capitol & trying to steal an election. But then, we should've done lots of things.

Got my hands on an internal IRS report on how Direct File went this season. TLDR: pretty well. 94% of users said their experience was excellent or above average.
That said, the IRS is reportedly killing the free tax filing service.
