IUPAT President @jimmy-iupat.bsky.social is right:

Temporary Protected Status recipients are rigorously vetted, pay taxes, and do work in critical industries. They are part of our communities and our unions—they deserve respect and protection.

America’s unions will keep fighting for them.

The ACA is a success.

It did what Republicans swore it never would: it cut the uninsured rate, ended insurance abuses, saved rural hospitals, and delivered real healthcare to millions.

But best of all, it saved lives: more cancer screenings, prenatal care, people catching diseases early.👇

SNAP food benefits have never stopped during a government shutdown. The only difference this time is the admin's refusal to use USDA contingency funds that kept the program running in every past shutdown.

The rainy day fund is $8.165 billion as of June 2, 2025 (per MA Comptroller).

We get $240 million monthly from the federal government to fund SNAP.

Covering SNAP for one month would cost 3% of the rainy day fund. Seems like a good deal to me.
On the one hand, I understand why Massachusetts politicians are hesitant to dip into the rainy day fund to cover SNAP, because we have many crises ahead. On the other hand, it's hard to think of something more rainy than kids going hungry. It's the right thing to do, and I think it's good politics.

TWO CAN PLAY THAT GAME: The official Massachusetts SNAP website now warns that Trump is “choosing not to issue November SNAP benefits that help you and many families put food on the table.” It also warns of cuts due to “Congressional Republicans and President Trump” in the “One Big Beautiful Bill.”

This is the real reason D☭Иald TЯUM₽ and Kowsplay Kristi is sending the military into Portland. There's no unrest there. It's their small dick dicktator response to protecting ICE. ICE is violating a land-use permit issued by the City of Portland.

Mario Guevara faces imminent deportation after being detained by ICE for over 100 days.

His crime? Livestreaming a “No Kings” protest.

If you were outraged about Jimmy Kimmel, you should be more outraged about Guevara.

It’s time to #FreeMario now!

Trump knew Alex Acosta gave his buddy Jeffrey Epstein a sweetheart deal that let him keep abusing women & children.

And then, out of all the Republicans on the planet, Trump made Acosta his Labor Secretary.

Why?

I just saw a TikTok like “the motivations of assassins don’t make sense anymore” but boy have they never.

Hinkley shot Reagan to impress Jodi Foster. Oswald was such a complete mess people just assume the CIA did it. Guiteau killed Garfield because no one would make him an ambassador.
