While the feds continue to play stupid games, SNAP recipients are set to lose food aid for the next month. In the Bay Area, a growing number of restaurants are stepping up to help, and we're maintaining the list. Share with anyone who needs it. www.coyotemedia.org/these-bay-ar...

These Bay Area Restaurants Are Offering Free Food to SNAP Recipients

Amid a government shutdown that will cut off aid for 42 million Americans, local food scene folks plan to pick up the slack.

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.

Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.

The people who need help are not the problem.

It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

i hate to be that bitch, but my sources are telling me this early voting data has gotten Zohran's people rightly spooked and y'all better stop assuming this one's in the bag. GOTV

Voter turnout surges in NYC mayor’s race, with Boomers and Gen X leading the charge

The data so far is good news for independent candidate Andrew Cuomo, a political scientist said.

seeing folks frustrated that credit for the movement to get #TheHuntForBenSolo made is being given to "star wars fans" & not specifically reylos and I get that BUT.
GUYS
we need the entire fandom
we need Disney to know that it isn't "just" the reylos that want him back, it's ALL Star Wars fans

I understand the economic blackout strike. I do.

I hope people consider small businesses separate from, say, Amazon; holiday income is essential for our small business, and delays on shipping make getting gifts out harder.

Folks are talking about this, and YES. Every Democratic politician and every Democratic Party HQ should be gearing up to GIVE PEOPLE FOOD NEXT WEEK.

Greg Pak @gregpak.net · Nov 9

Exactly. An effective political party in this moment should be functioning as a hundred thousand different mutual aid groups across the country.

Paul Axel @paulaxel.bsky.social · Nov 9

The party could do worse than become a local Mutal Aid liaison. Especially over the next few years.

None of this true. There's an emergency fund they aren't tapping. Undocumented immigrants cannot access federal backed health insurance - their only access to federal healthcare is via emergency rooms. And I'm not touching the anti-trains shit beyond saying it's anti-trans shit.

Senate Democrats have now voted 12 times to not fund the food stamp program, also known as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). Bottom line, the well has run dry. At this time, there will be no benefits issued November 01. We are approaching an inflection point for Senate Democrats. They can continue to hold out for healthcare for illegal aliens and gender mutilation procedures or reopen the government so mothers, babies, and the most vulnerable among us can receive critical nutrition assistance.

Republicans control all 3 branches of the government and claim they’re leading us into a “Golden Age.” But they can’t figure out how to end a government shutdown, and they want us to blame the party that controls exactly zero branches of government.

If you're considering a run for president in 2028 your highest priority needs to be fighting to ensure that the midterm election is free and fair.

There's no 2028 without a legitimate 2026 where the results are respected. Something I pray that everyone with presidental ambitions understands.
