The Trump administration is also refusing to use the SNAP contingency reserves, set aside for this exact purpose.

Speaker Johnson still refuses to work.

He's terrified of what’s in the Epstein files. So terrified he’s willing to let his constituents go hungry when SNAP benefits run out on 11/1.

Republicans care about one thing: protecting Trump—even as he (literally + figuratively) destroys the White House.

The fact that this coming 9 days before the largest peaceful protest in modern American history is absolutely intentional. We will not back down. Trump and Miller can lie, smear, and threaten all they want. They will lose. No Kings, No Kings, No Kings. www.reuters.com/legal/govern...

ICE is too dangerous to be left unaccountable.
Violence & abuse against Americans is wrong.

If you see an incident occurring, get out your cellphone. Document it. Send it to your Congressperson and the press. Do it anonymously if you need to. #BeTheChange

BREAKING: A federal judge has temporarily blocked Trump from deploying the National Guard in Portland, ruling he overstepped his authority and violated state sovereignty. The court said Trump’s move lacked any “colorable basis” and was not justified by conditions on the ground.

This regime can’t stand to be laughed at. They can’t stand to be the butt of a joke because the moment we’re able to laugh at them, their fragile ego begins to crumble.

🚨 Four days. Five red flags.
“I hate my opponents” → medical misinfo → embarrassing us at UN → attacking press freedom → requiring pre-approved news.
Authoritarianism in broad daylight.

The next wannabe governor from Florida was spared prison, had his record sealed, and got not one, but three chances at redemption. Now he’s pushing a D.C. crime bill that would deny those same chances to young adults in the District. That screams “opportunities for me, but not for thee.”
