Your daily reminder that Trump absolutely can fund SNAP through contingency funds.
He absolutely can prevent 42 million Americans — including 20 million children — from going hungry next month.
He is choosing not to. Don’t let him lie his way out of this.

Amazon just announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year.
UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year.
Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M.
This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

It’s been over a month since progressive champion Adelita Grijalva won her election to represent the 7th district of Arizona, House Speaker Mike Johnson is STILL refusing to swear her in. NEXT TUESDAY (mid-day) we will deliver petitions to Speaker Johnson to demand that he swear her in immediately!

The U.S. has conducted 10 strikes on alleged drug-carrying boats, killing 43 people.
Remember: no judge or jury has found these boats were trafficking drugs. We're simply taking Trump's word for it.
He’s unilaterally acting as judge, jury, and executioner.
This is a danger to us all.

If a temporary resident of the White House can totally demolish the East Wing to build a gaudy ballroom, without any authority, approval, or regulation, he can tear down the rest of the White House to build a Walmart. That this destruction is allowed underscores how off the rails our country is now.

Your regular reminder that we desperately need to overturn Citizens United and get big money out of politics.
It is among the worst Supreme Court decisions in history.
It corrupts our political system every day.

In the UK, our king mostly opens garden shows and waves at things.
In the US, an orange man is trying to crown himself.
This weekend, seven million people reminded him that he’s not special.

The Revolution Will Be Organised
What the “No Kings” marches taught us: the antidote to tyranny isn’t fury - it’s laughter, clipboards and muscular decency (and there's probably a Gantt chart somewhere).

Donald Trump is now officially demolishing part of the White House to make room for his $200 million golden ballroom.
This comes as Americans can’t afford groceries and the government is still shut down.
