The Trump Administration must use contingency funds, set aside for this very purpose in emergencies, to pay SNAP benefits to hungry kids, seniors, veterans, and people with disabilities.

I have no idea what this means, but it sounds pretty cool. (“Platinum Club” is better than “Gold Club,” right?) Anyway, THANK YOU to all my generous donors for helping me achieve this honor (whatever the heck it is) so early in my 2025 campaign!

Trump: "For generations Miami has been a haven for those fleeing communist tyranny in South Africa. I mean, if you take a look at what's going on in parts of South Africa. Look at South Africa, what's going on. Look at South America, what's going on. You know, we have a G20 meeting in South Africa."

The heads bobbing up and down are not agreement. They’re audience members glancing down at their phones, doing their best to ignore the petulant wannabe ranting like a senile old fool at the lectern. #TrumpSucks

Trump's audience at a business conference in Miami sits silently as he rants and raves and lies about his 2019 impeachment

Taxis will be replaced by camels.
Women will be forced to cover themselves head to toe.
NYPD will be replaced with religious police.
All hot dog stands will be replaced with goat meat stands.
THIS IS WHAT YOU VOTED FOR.

Day 4: Recovering from my *clean* colonoscopy—the first clean on in years. Yep, during Movember, we talk about this stuff, because candid conversations lead to early screening, detection and treatment. Help us stop men dying too young. #movember

Day 2. #Movember doesn’t just dominate prostate cancer and men’s mental health research, its signature mustaches start important conversations about men’s health. Donate if you can.

This is worth fighting for. MAGA created this crisis with their “Big Beautiful Bucket of Bullshit,” and Democrats are just trying desperately to limit the damage.

The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse.
I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email

If your newspaper is giving Donald Trump softer headlines and gauzier coverage than People Magazine, that should be a bit of a wake up call.

The Drumpführer: “Nobody knew health care was so complicated.”

Except *every president since Truman,* including Obama, who tamed that complexity with the #AffordableCareAct, one of the most popular, resilient, ingenious pieces of legislation of the last 75 years.

Many of you will be going into the #AffordableCareAct exchanges today, where you’ll find increased premiums that you’ll be unable to pay. This is why MAGA house members are taking a long vacation and Trump wants to eliminate the filibuster.

Don’t flinch, Democrats! This is worth fighting for!
