Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

Congrats, MAGA, you’ve owned the Libs—and all it’s cost you is a functioning government, a working democracy, human rights, national peace, economic stability, affordable groceries, affordable healthcare, qualified leaders, and global standing.

Congratulations, Trump Supporters, You've Owned the Libs
Well, Trump Supporters, as a member of the woke radical Left, it kills me to say this, but you win.

You're welcome, Susan. We all learn as we go. 🙂 It seems you are not only learning, but taking action. Millions know #veganism is a good idea. Unfortunately, only a few people follow through on it and #GoVegan. Good for you, and the #animals.

Anyone willing to go #PlantBased? Ask me any questions. I've lived #vegan since 1979, all to prepare for this Q&A. lol 🙂🍓🥬

Because the first question shifts the blame to the desperate, making their morality the focus, while the second question demands accountability from the powerful. It's easier to question survival than to challenge greed.

My husband @robertcooper-us.bsky.social and I were the FIRST gay couple to adopt children in the US, way back in 1985. We went on to adopt five wonderful kids — all adopted at birth.

They’ve grown so much! Here’s a pic from our wedding in 2000, and a recent one including their significant others. ❤️

👇🎯 Your regular reminder that this was the moment when it became clear that nothing actually mattered & we were not remotely serious about being/becoming an actual democracy.
Bush v. Gore, not just for the numerous legal flaws and falsehoods, but for the relief the GOP SCOTUS ordered preventing any complete and accurate count of the votes.

They could've said, "to be fair, the votes must be counted this way..."

No. They said, "do not count the votes. They don't matter."
