We got things the GOP didn't want to give us & gave up nothing we hadn't already lost but hey, suit yourself.

Some people just like being mad all the time. 🙄

STFU, 🤖

Didn't Saint Bullshit lose HALF his base in 2020? What am I missing here? 😂

That's the one that took me SIX.

I mean. Seriously? "Tabby?" 🙄

Yes, but .... keep in mind those subsidies were ALREADY eliminated in Rotting Pumpkin Head's Big Betrayal Bill.

Biden increased them but wasn't able to make them permanent. They were already GONE.

Trying to claw them back was a noble effort but it was ALWAYS doomed.

2 was my backup vowel hunt & 3 was the most obvious solve. 🤷‍♂️

4 & 5 were both oddball words but the only ones left.

"Rewarded" them by fully funding SNAP for a year, shutdown or not, and formally banning RIFs during shutdowns?

Okay. Looks like a win from here though.

And again .... SNAP is fully restored for a YEAR and RIFs during shutdowns are BANNED.

These are WINS.

I think it was Twain who said a lie travels halfway around the world while the truth is still tying its shoelaces.

Man. That was never more true than now.

It's wild how quickly WRONG social media can be, isn't it?

Everyone's stuck on "Oh noes the Dems CAVED! They BETRAYED us!" when if you actually parse it out it looks more like they SAVED millions of people from loss of SNAP & no paycheck.

But something something Schumer blah blah woof woof. 🙄

I only know they can't be RIFed if we shutdown again. That's all I've heard so far.

But this is ALSO on the House passing this CR & I have NO idea how that's going to go. Early assessments were putting it between zero & absolute zero for chances of THAT but I think the GOP caucus is splintering.

Fuck Saint Bullshit the Ratfucker and fuck ANYTHING he has to say and DOUBLE FUCK anyone who PLATFORMS his FUCKTWADDLE.

Axios is not an especially credible or unbiased source but ... 🤔

It expires, but the two key provisions Dem senators wrote into it---SNAP restored, RIFs banned---do not.

But yeah. It gets us through the holidays but the GOP only has till then or it's back to shutdown again is how I interpreted it.

And hate, bigotry, racism, antisemitism, homophobia .... these things are ALWAYS wrong. There's no "both sides" to hate.

But this all caught me flatfooted & by surprise post-10/7. I literally had had NO idea the hate was so deeply entrenched. It shocked me!

And then it made me FURIOUS.

Exactly. Anti-terrorism, anti-rape, anti-butchery, anti-suicide bombing, anti-kidnapping.

Anti-propaganda.

And being 1/8 Cherokee, ABSOLUTELY in support of the rights of indigenous peoples to their ancestral homelands. Always.

Besides, our alliance with Israel is a good deal for US.

*shrug*

That particular list is ALWAYS in response to specific posts/patterns of posts. When they add someone, they always post a screenshot.

Not saying they never miss, but I've never seen it.
