DeLauro: The president went to the supreme court to deprive kids of food. Unbelievable. And now wants to deny their parents healthcare.

Sanders: Let’s be clear… If this vote succeeds, over 20 million Americans are going to see at least a doubling in their premiums… if resolution is passed tonight, we are on a path way to throw 15 million Americans off of medicaid and the affordable care act, 15 million.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

What kind of man works aggressively to flex his power and deny nearly 42 million Americans food benefits intended to stave off hunger just weeks before Thanksgiving?

This idiotic, demented, vile occupant of the WH also doesn’t have any idea what it’s like to grocery shop like working people cause he never had done it!

Corporations don’t pay enough to feed you and your family, so you use SNAP.

Then he punishes you for using SNAP instead of taking on the companies that don’t pay you what you’re worth.

We sometimes forget Trump is just an asshole boss. He always finds a way to blame workers.

So at the beginning of Nov Congress would have been paid, unless they specifically had their pay check held.

I would argue they should donate it because they haven’t worked.

Maybe a good question for reporters to catalog?

Infighting at DHS Is Complicating Trump’s Deportation Push

White House pressure to speed up the pace of deportations has led to internal discord in the Department of Homeland Security over tactics, people familiar with the matter said.

Murdering humans in the Caribbean Sea. Risking starvation of tens of millions of Americans. Urging abusive federal agents to use deadly force.

Can Americans agree to never again elect a man who could not care less about human life, except for his own?

"Pope Leo said Scripture emphasizes the question that will be posed at the end of the world:

'How did you receive the foreigner, did you receive him and welcome him, or not? I think there is a deep reflection that needs to be made about what is happening'..."

Pope Leo calls for ‘deep reflection’ about treatment of detained migrants in U.S.

“Many people who have lived for years and years and years, never causing problems, have been deeply affected by what is going on right now,” Chicago-born pope says.

They’re counting on you to sit this one out. Don’t give them what they want.

Get loud with your ballot. Drop it off today or hit the polls tomorrow ASAP.

Holder: The Supreme Court is a broken institution. And it’s something that has to be part of the national conversation in ’26 and in ’28.

If there is a Democratic trifecta in 2028—and I think the possibility of that is pretty good—Supreme Court reform has to be on the table.

In California, the DOJ has deployed poll monitors in Los Angeles, Orange, Kern, Riverside, and Fresno Counties. In New Jersey, they’re stationed in Passaic County. Don’t let these voter intimidation tactics by the Trump administration stop you from voting.

He wants to kill Obamacare, but has no other plan. He is not satisfied with his deportation operation because his ICE agents are not abusive enough. He plans to continue murdering people in the Caribbean Sea because the law and these humans are of no concern to him. All this thanks to John Roberts.

On this day 225 years ago, John Adams moved into the still-not-quite-complete White House, becoming the first president to occupy it. His blessing was carved into the State Dining Room mantel in 1945: "May none but Honest and Wise Men ever rule under This Roof.”

I just want to point out that I have NEVER called Stephen Miller "Satan's Butt Plug."

What I ACTUALLY said was that Stephen Miller's HEAD was Satan's Butt Plug.

And I wish people would stop twisting my words.

if Stephen Miller is “Satan’s Butt Plug” (credit John Fugelsang
