I was asked to be on a bi-partisan committee supplying congress with information on food insecurity.
Yes, there are going to be A LOT of people surprised when they see the extent of our fellow citizens who use SNAP (about 40 million, lots of veterans) and WIC (over 6 million) programs.

Did you know that over 1.3M active duty service members and veterans rely on SNAP benefits to feed themselves and their families?
Now you know.

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

1. Last week, there were 3 Trump corruption scandals in 4 days that would define any other presidency.
Most people are probably not even AWARE of all three scandals.

That theory is wildly wrong (a VP candidate has to be eligible to become president) but why are you tossing him suggestions for how he can violate the Constitution?
Who asked this? Is this what we can expect from the new and improved White House press corps?

Q: One theory on how you might try to serve a 3rd term is that you could run at the vice president
TRUMP: Yeah, I'd be allowed to do that. But I would rule that out because it's too cute.

Then I guess Obama can run too, right? Or does this “theory” only apply to Republicans? (I am making a point, not trying to legit engage with the supposed legal argument)

Honestly at some point you have to start doing psyops with these people:
Have Obama announce that he will seek a third term tomorrow. Then watch all the con law “scholars” and Fix News MELT DOWN trying to explain why he can’t but Trump can. (It’s like Newsom taking over his social media persona)

There's been endless talk about an AI bubble, but less about exactly how, why, and how much it's a bubble. So I turned to the framework put forward by scholars Brent Goldfarb and David A. Kirsch, authors of "Bubbles and Crashes," for assessing tech bubbles.

🚨BIG changes happening -- ICE leadership is being purged tonight. The old guard, which prioritized targeted enforcement operations aimed at people with criminal records, is being replaced with Border Patrol and Gregory Bovino's "Midway Blitz" style.
Think things are bad now? It'll get worse.

Astonishing turn of events over the course of about 12 hours.
Judge Olguin ordered DOJ to cough up the names of the attorneys who did the (apparently incomplete or erroneous) reviews of material required to be disclosed to defense counsel.
Rather than comply, DOJ is dismissing the case!

Oh nooooo!!!!!!
The government has decided that it is not in their interests to explain to the judge whether they knew the "victim" here had a criminal record.
Holy hell public defenders might gets us thru this shite.

Trump just won’t release it.
440,000 Minnesotans - and millions more Americans - will pay the price.

What we're witnessing with #Melissa is ultra rare in the history of known hurricanes in the Atlantic. This level of sustained intensity and feasting on every joule of ocean heat content without any real disruption is incredible.
