It is surreal that in the richest country in the world with a thousands of billionaires, over 40 million Americans will go hungry starting this Saturday and 20 million Americans will lose their healthcare soon. The indifference from Trump and Republicans for the working class is paramount!

The whole Third Term Project isn’t actually about Trump. The people behind it know he will likely be dead or enfeebled by 2029. It is about them, the vastly unpopular group around Trump, wanting to grift us forever without elections.

WE FOUND THE WASTE, FRAUD, AND ABUSE:

FBI Director Kash Patel used a $60 million government jet for a booty call during the shutdown.

Not the first time. In April, he made multiple trips to Nashville to see his 26-year-old country-singer girlfriend and even flew her around to hockey games.

🇳🇱 Tonight, the Dutch and their center-left party, Democrats 66, have voted against racism and hate, and knocked the far-right, ill-named Party for Freedom out of power.

🇳🇱 This was a blow to fascism, a nod to democracy, and some much-needed light in the darkness ...

🇳🇱 Congrats!

On Nov. 1, 40 million Americans, including 3 million Floridians, will go hungry.

Hunger isn't a political game. It's a moral failure by this administration that can and must fund SNAP.

What’s draining tax dollars isn’t SNAP, it’s corporate welfare and billionaire tax breaks.

FACT: Even people working two jobs still need SNAP.

Where’s the outrage about that?!

I'm shaking almost too hard to type. I entered SLC airport and heard screams and cries for help. I could see people gathered around, watching. I sped over to discover this woman face down on the floor, four grown men pushing her down, while she cried "HELP ME" and pled for her child.

Jobs vanishing, SNAP running out, prices climbing, people going hungry, and billionaires building ballrooms. THAT is the “Trump Effect”

The Billionaire class gets massive tax breaks & subsidies.

Working class Americans on unlivable wages get SNAP assistance, so they can afford necessities like food.

Guess which program is getting cut?

An administration of billionaires will always look out for their own.

Learn & vote accordingly.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 85th day out of the last 97.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

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.
