Lot of talk about if thanksgiving food is good. This is nonsense. Just as cigarettes are nicotine delivery devices, thanksgiving food is a gravy delivery device. Get the gravy right and nothing else matters.

He betrayed his oath as a doctor and voluntarily supported a man whose insane policies will kill children, all for the sake of power, MAGA, and politics.

I hope he is shamed for life.

@schumer.senate.gov — Everyone said, hold the line on the Govt funding for the subsidies, and you whipped 8 Dem votes from reps who weren’t up for reelection anyway—

The failure is yours - we need new leadership

As someone who started doing youth work over 20 years ago it's heartening to see reports like this but it's also infuriating because we've been beating this drum for my entire life. I'm 42. There is no time in my life that we did not know this. Never.
The safest communities are the ones with the most resources, not the most police.

Local leaders in DC need to invest in real safety solutions that reach people with the resources they need when they need them most.

It’s always about fear & control. The criteria for being ‘detained’ is getting looser every day: brown/not white, Black, with an accent, proximal to one who is 👈🏻, ‘in the way’ / ‘argumentative’, …. soon it will be what we post/say/ do for work… #medsky

Hi @latimes.com, I broke this story for @lataco.bsky.social yesterday. We were the first news outlet to publish the surveillance footage and report that Rodriguez is a federal agent. Disappointing to not see a "first reported by" credit or link to our website in your story. Do better.

As a #familydoc I am more sickened by this country every day - taking food literally from the mouths of children, making hard-working adults do impossible math around healthcare costs, ripping families apart based on their complexion or accent… #universalhealthcare #demsocialism #capitalismkills

my anger is not going away in a few weeks. it is insulting for these senators to horsetrade so that ppl retiring or not running until 2030 can vote no while they find just enough yes votes to do what the GOP wants.
i will be angry for longer than a few weeks and i don't appreciate the condescension.

Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer.

He is a computer safety researcher.

And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine.

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.
