A lot of the people you see arguing against food assistance are actually on food assistance. They work at Walmart or a convenience store and think they are deserving, but others are not.

This is projection and the way that the 1% keep poor people pitted against poor people so they don’t look up.

Cities thrive not on fear but empathy, on cooperation not division.

That's the NYC we know and love. It has found expression in this movement. And it is rising up at the ballot box today.

Welp — @davidhogg.bsky.social to Scott Jennings: "People are tired of being lectured by men with Rolexes on CNN about affordability in this country. That’s why Zohran is resonating."

Do you know why Mamdani is so popular? Because his policies are class based. After 20 years of identity politics torpedoing America, people are excited someone isn't telling them to vote for them because of the colour of their skin or what's in their pants.

The courts have ordered the administration to use its contingency fund for SNAP—and have made clear it can use its transfer authorities to fully fund SNAP.

It is not enough to do the bare minimum—they should do everything they can to ensure Americans put food on the table.

There have been plenty of legitimate attacks on Zohran Mamdani’s candidacy. In recent weeks, though, many critiques have been tinged with specifically anti-Muslim undertones.

What Zohran Mamdani’s Bid for Mayor Reveals About Being Muslim in America

The Islamophobic attacks on the candidate carry the weight of history and the urgency of the present.

Another big endorsement for Andrew Cuomo. And it only cost $959 million in tax breaks.

When the GOP dismisses SNAP recipients by telling them to 'just get jobs,' they ignore that 70% of those individuals are already
employed full-time.

In the face of this cruel government shutdown, we’re taking another significant step to protect Maryland families and children:

I’ve signed an executive order releasing $62 million to help Marylanders who rely on SNAP benefits put food on the table.

Trump still has not followed a court order to release SNAP funds for millions of people.

Meanwhile, he hosted a "Great Gatsby" themed party at Mar-a-Lago this weekend.

And he posted seven times about renovating a White House bathroom with marble and gold.

Priorities.

Mike Johnson: "Imagine a scenario where they were in charge and they didn't have the filibuster. We would have nationalized elections, they would infringe on our 2A rights, they'd pack the Supreme Court, and they'd make Puerto Rico and DC states."
