This is the president of the United States taking a break from gold-and-marble interior renovations to say he’ll defy a court order to feed hungry Americans.

Grijalva: I do think that Speaker Johnson misplayed his hand.

There are people all over this nation who were out there with signs that said, “Swear her in.” They wouldn’t have even known about me otherwise.

Thank you for highlighting how corrupt the system you’re protecting really is.

The backlash to ABC/Disney canceling Kimmel shows why it's important for businesses and the public to understand that two-thirds of Americans are not Trump voters

I see criticism of the ACA from the right and left that it funnels money to insurers. It does increase coverage, and that benefits insurers, and hospitals. But it's not unique to the ACA. It's also true of Medicare, Medicaid, and employer coverage. It's how our system works.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 91st day out of the last 103.

12 days of work in 103 days.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Since the fall of El-Fasher in Sudan earlier this week, “very few people [are] getting out”, says @rescue.org President & CEO, David Miliband. Only 5,000 civilians have made it to safety, while the 250,000 caught in the enclave face “grave danger and mass killing.” #Velshi

‘Blood in the sand’: The siege of El-Fasher heightens Sudan conflict

Sudan’s paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) seized the city of El Fasher in the country’s Darfur region, leaving a trail of blood and atrocities in their wake. Analysts warn that the two-year long civil war, which has triggered one of the biggest humanitarian crises in the world today, is being fueled by regional powers backing opposite sides of the conflict. The International Rescue Committee is a global humanitarian aid, relief, and development organization. Its CEO and President, David Miliband tells Ali Velshi “every humanitarian emergency is a political emergency.”

The USDA is the fail safe for SNAP.

They have a contingency fund to ensure it’s covered in the event of a shutdown.

They’re refusing.

Grocery stores stepped up to try and help by offering discounts to any SNAP recipients and the USDA told them they had to stop.

Starvation as a policy choice.

Some people waited in line up for 14 hours to receive a food box from a church giveaway.

500 people volunteered to help and they still ran out of food.

Remember for every one person a food bank feeds, SNAP feeds 9.

By turning off food assistance the regime is starving Americans.

Wait, did they edit an interview? Did they not air every second?

I see that CBS chose not to air this part. It probably explains much of what they did decide to air.

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

This is a Fox News poll... www.foxnews.com/politics/fox...

President Donald Trump isn’t on the ballot this year, but New Jersey voters are sending him a message. More are negative toward Trump than positive by 11 percentage points, and more than twice as many say their vote in this year’s gubernatorial race will be to express opposition to the president rather than to show support.

That helps Democrat Mikie Sherrill best Republican Jack Ciattarelli by 52% to 45% heading into the last few days of the campaign, according to a Fox News poll of New Jersey likely voters. Her 7-point lead is just outside the poll’s margin of sampling error. Earlier this month, Sherrill was ahead by 5 points, and in September she was up by 8 points.

Well, an acquaintance who relies on the ACA marketplace for insurance just received a notice explaining that their fee for coverage will be rising. Right now they pay $180 a month. The new price?

$2733.15 a month.
