Much of America is afraid. Afraid of the government. Afraid of their fellow citizens. Afraid America’s legal and judicial institutions will no longer protect them. If Americans don't wake up, organize, and fight harder to defend the rule of law, we'll find ourselves living in an authoritarian system

Much of the country is afraid: afraid of the government. Afraid of their fellow citizens. Afraid U.S. laws will no longer protect them.

Welch: "This has nothing to do with the shutdown. The law requires and the funds are available to continue SNAP right now without any interruption. So that is a decision the president is making on his own to allow people to go hungry."

Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year.
That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare.

This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I’m not backing down, and we’re going to win.

The Ronald Reagan video denouncing tariffs, which Donald is in such a snit about, was posted to YouTube eight years ago. It is authentic. Donald is lying. It is not AI.
We are living in such twisted times, when Ronald Reagan's own words are offensive to Republicans.

“Walmart was the top employer of SNAP recipients in five states and one of the top four employers in the remaining four states. McDonald’s was among the top five employers of Medicaid enrollees in five of six states and SNAP recipients in eight of nine states.”

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

Better then to just cut everybody else's legs off than to stand up, grow up and contribute to America's common cause.

I assume the service members out there today realize that the tradeoff for the cost of the parade was probably a million things that could make their professional lives better and safer. What a shitty way to treat the people under your command
