Nick Fuentes is getting the bad boy treatment from the New York Times, which means it is once again time to shout into the wilderness about his creepy goblin hands

Nick Fuentes doing his weird little show in a shit and tie. One of his hands is outstretched and both the palms and fingers are long and creepy, or at least I think so

Fuentes has his hands down on the desk and again, creepy fingers imo

Nick Fuentes saluting and you can really see how strange his overly long palm is and how oddly angled his fingers are

Michelle Goldberg writes: Nick Fuentes was Charlie Kirk's Bitter Enemy. Now He's Becoming His Successor

There is a picture of Fuentes that has to be retouched because this mf simply does not look like that. Vaguely movie star, cheekbones, the whole nine yards. Unrecognizable

Apparently I’ve said something controversial by arguing that the future model for the Democratic Party are charismatic candidates who advocate for populist positions while never backing down to right wing intimidation campaigns. How is this even up for debate?

People fucking hate this guy. They fucking hate ICE. They fucking hate how much power he has. He is at 63% overall disapproval to 37% approval. That's lower than their poll after January 6th. And this poll was done before he started intentionally starving people. I wish our media would reflect this.

A SSRS/CNN poll showing 61% people think Trump has gone too far using the power of the presidency and 57% think he's gone too far deporting immigrants.

RAJU: Last week you were very critical of Biden's use of the autopen. But Trump admitted on 60 Minutes to not knowing he pardoned a crypto billionaire who pleaded guilty to money laundering. Does that also concern you?

MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know anything about that. I didn't see it. I'm not sure.

I have been a reporter for close to 40 years, including stints covering police and the courts. This thing, from the president down, of accusing people of crimes when not charged: That did not used to be a thing. Authorities don’t do that because it is unfair and leads to cases being tossed.

It's interesting that wise conservative business guys implicitly understand "return on investment" except when it comes to this. It's better for YOU if your neighbor gets enough to eat so he can become your community's mechanic, accountant, dentist--whatever!--instead of lying dead in a ditch

The welfare state is about dignity, equality, and making people not poor, but as @itsafronomics.bsky.social says/cites here, it’s often also an investment that more than pays for itself

Why should you 🫵🏿 care about SNAP? SNAP recipients saw:

- Improved life expectancy
- Lower chance of incarceration
- Lowers chance of poverty
- Lived in better neighborhoods
- Higher human capital

SNAP keeps our neighbors fed, communities safer, and kids educated. Also people are HUNGRY. DUH!

These are the rules, they only talk about customers using SNAP/ebt benefits. If you dont have the benefits, these rules don't apply

(b

) Equal treatment for coupon customers. Coupons shall be accepted for eligible foods at the same prices and on the same terms and conditions applicable to cash purchases of the same foods at the same store except that tax shall not be charged on eligible foods purchased with coupons. However, nothing in this part may be construed as authorizing FNS to specify the prices at which retail food stores may sell food. However, public or private nonprofit homeless meal providers may only request voluntary use of SNAP benefits from homeless SNAP recipients and may not request such household using SNAP benefits to pay more than the average cost of the food purchased by the public or private nonprofit homeless meal provider contained in a meal served to the patrons of the meal service. For purposes of this section, "average cost" is determined by averaging food costs over a period of up to one calendar month. Voluntary payments by SNAP recipients in excess of such costs may be accepted by the meal providers. The value of donated foods from any source shall not be considered in determining the amount to be requested from SNAP recipients. All indirect costs, such as those incurred in the acquisition, storage, or preparation of the foods used in meals shall also be excluded. In addition, if others have the option of eating free or making a monetary donation, SNAP recipients must be provided the same option of eating free or making a donation in money or SNAP benefits. No retail food store may single out coupon users for special treatment in any way.

Equal treatment. The EBT system shall be implemented and operated in a manner that maintains equal treatment for SNAP households in accordance with § 278.2(b) of this chapter. The following requirements for the equal treatment of SNAP households shall directly apply to EBT systems:

(1) Retailers shall not establish special checkout lanes which are only for SNAP households. If special lanes are designated for the purpose of accepting other electronic debit or credit cards and/or other payment methods such as checks, SNAP customers with EBT cards may also be assigned to such lanes as long as other commercial customers are assigned there as well.

(2) Checkout lanes equipped with POS devices shall be made available to SNAP households during all retail store hours of operation.

These stores need to challenge this. If the customer has no SNAP funds because of the lapse, they are not SNAP customers. They are an ordinary customer and you cant treat them differently if you want.

Mark Walter now officially owns the Lakers and the Dodgers.

Just remember that a subsidiary of Walter's Guggenheim Partners owns a stake in GEO, Trump's private prison and ICE detention contractor.

Walter is profiting off the surveillance, detention, and kidnapping of immigrants and US citizens.

NEWS: The NBA Board of Governors has officially approved the sale of the Los Angeles Lakers to Mark Walter, the league announced Thursday.

Walter, CEO of Guggenheim Partners and owner of the Dodgers, now controls both of LA’s marquee sports franchises.
