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.

This is the best political news I’ve seen in a very long time — so please pass it on👇

Each state can limit Citizens United in their own state & they don’t have to wait for other states to do it.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

Read that back.

When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

George was just trying to get to work.

ICE pepper-sprayed him, dragged him from his car, locked him in a detention center, and placed him on suicide watch. He even missed his young daughter’s birthday in the process.

This man is a veteran and American citizen. Don't look away.
"They put me on suicide watch and they put me in the cell, I'm naked, in like a hospital dress and just a concrete bed with like a mattress, like a thin mattress and, they leave the light on 24/7."

Christian nationalist fascism: when they lower masked Gestapo goons from helicopters in the night to smash apartment windows, terrorize residents, and zip-tie and kidnap children for not being white looking enough— and then violate the 1st Amendment by reciting scripture from a government account.

There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.

They’re going to fire a US attorney because they couldn’t find evidence for a crime that was manufactured by the administration?

If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations.

If you're 45, that number is 74.7%.

If you're under 28, the number is 100%.

Happy Labor Day.

REMINDER: Trump numerous times as a candidate in 2016 and 2024 claimed Obama and Biden's great jobs numbers were fake. With Trump it's always projection. Given today he fired the person in charge of economic data, He will now appoint a person who will lie about the economic data to make Trump happy

And we're officially at the end of being able to trust the jobs numbers in this country ever again.

I'm bummed about the fact that we won't be able to trust government numbers going forward, but I've been expecting that. But now I just heard that the Corporation for Public Broadcasting is shutting down, and that's truly heartbreaking, dangerous, wrong, and infuriating. The war on truth continues.

The MSM needs to NOT sugarcoat this.

The economy is tanking. It is because of Republicans, and Republicans need to be held responsible for it.

No excuses.
Job growth over the past three months has fallen to its lowest in more than a decade – and the unemployment rate for Black workers is especially ominous.

how much of the money from the ICE/tax cuts bill is just going to go to scammers, do you think? www.richmonder.org/this-tuckaho...
This Tuckahoe home won a $1.26 billion contract for an ICE detention center. The owner isn't talking.
The company’s website is dated and largely accessible only via login.

A legal permanent resident researching cures for Lyme disease has been detained by immigration officials for over a week.

He has reportedly been denied access to an attorney and his family has not been given a reason for his detention.

We cannot become immune to this cruelty.
