Food assistance info due to the government shutdown.

WIC is predicted to have about two weeks before it runs out of money. SNAP and
federally funded school lunches look to be safe through October.

Can we all stop saying the word 'should' when referring to Trump's actions? He will never do the right thing. He's not interested in it and, more importantly, he's constitutionally incapable of it. He's a horrible person, and what he 'should' do is never going to happen. Ever. Get past it.

Trump treats immigrants from Mexico and Central and South America worse than we treated Germans and Japanese subject to the Alien Enemies Act in World War II. He is a monster, not just a tyrant.

As Trump attempts to re-segregate America, never lose sight of the fact that Elon Musk stands to financially benefit from the federal government no longer enforcing anti-segregation laws.

The Trump-Musk Regime Wants to Make Segregation Great Again
In a boon for racist businesses, the administration has ended a ban on segregated facilities for federal contractors.

In 1863, on a bloody Gettysburg battlefield, Abraham Lincoln asked for our dedication to self-governance, so that the “dead shall not have died in vain.”

I am not about to let a narcissistic despot & his sycophants, bent on destroying America, achieve their vile goals. How about you?

This is a team sport. Sometimes, everyone agrees on a strategy you have concerns about. I’ve voted with less than 10 people multiple times.

But let’s be clear — there’s nothing heroic or admirable about green-lighting a billionaire takeover of our country. In these moments, our unity is our power.

I don’t buy the narrative that Trump & President Musk actually WANT a shutdown. If that was the truth, they would’ve put forth an even worse bill that would 100% guarantee zero Dem votes.

What they did was propose a bill that green-lights DOGE & Elon’s billionaire takeover by omitting guardrails.

Drunk on power and ketamine. This is Musk and the foreign minister of Poland. This is what I mean about Musk as the "over-mighty subject". His power is too great for anyone else to be fully free.

At this point countries should consider banning Musk products and sanctioning him outright like he’s a Russian oligarch. Nothing better you could do for the pro-constitutional forces in the US than helping economically annihilate this man
every affected country should announce huge retaliatory tariffs on Tesla, and every time Trump institutes a new tariff the Tesla ones go up an extra 25%

No, the meeting did not go badly for Ukraine. It exposed in the most undeniable, unequivocal way possible the pro-Putin commitments of the president and vice president. That was information Americans and allies needed to have clear before them.
