According to Project 2025, they are going to “End broad-based categorical eligibility for SNAP.” And “Move the USDA food and nutrition programs (including SNAP) to HHS.”

Hope people are realizing that rigging the 2026 and 2028 elections have always been the plan.

41 million people (including 20 million kids) will lose access to food in a few days while a new 90,000 square foot ballroom is being added to the White House.

This political moment is profoundly disgusting.

I find it amazing too that Republicans’ boycott of Washington isn’t the biggest story of them all.

The shutdown can’t end if they refuse to show up for work.

No more tours of the White House for school children. Forget civics - maga will explain everything to us from now on.

Prime example of white privilege in plain sight.

Black kids get called adults to justify blame, while white adults get called “kids” to excuse their hate. They’re not boys and girls, they’re grown-ass men and women, and the receipts are in writing.

It is a scandal totally unprecedented in history that the Vice President has shared a video depicting the President as king. It’s an obscene violation of every founding American principle.

And nothing will come of it. It makes me physically sick.

From Fredrick Taylor’s book “1939” - a German citizen wrote, “They don't want a crisis - so none is coming. Why should it? Everything is so wonderful, after all! Everywhere, things are on the up! Everyone is earning splendid money. The weather is good. So, why worry?”

And I can bet the Coast Guard could use new helicopters to help rescue people. They are notorious for having old equipment. Look up all the crashes they have had - one in Hawaii was particularly bad.

This is quite a hed/subhed.
1) Start with Vance. Use strong action verb. Accept the autocratic premise that the “Marines’ Might” are Vance’s to flex.
2) Mention the protest second and absurdly describe them as in the thousands
3) Treat Trump’s strong man use of the military as a partisan scuffle.

Vance Flexes the Marines’ Might as Thousand Protest Trump’s Agenda
VP JD Vance’s trips o a military base in California illustrated rising tensions between the federal government and Democratic leaders

Trump's federal agents shot Marimar Martinez, a US citizen, multiple times for allegedly menacing them with her car in Chicago. Only hours later, Kristi Noem and DHS started spreading disinformation about the shooting.

Now the official line is crumbling. 1/
