I want more people to care that SNAP benefits are being cut off on November 1. 40% of SNAP beneficiaries are children. This is callous and vile.

This is horrible, and it’s only going to worsen as the economy crumbles under the Trump regime.

Find mutual aid organizations and food distribution sites in your local area. If you have the means, see how you can support them with your time, money, or other resources.

We’re all in this together.

Families are already hanging by a thread, but the sad truth is it’s about to get a lot worse when SNAP benefits don’t go out in November.

It’s time to find our local food banks and help out with donations and volunteer hours if you are able.

DO these 42 million people realize that in 12 days they will no longer receive food benefits?

Elderly people. Disabled people. Homeless people.

NOTHING.

42 Million Americans - 10% Of Country - May Lose Food Stamps Due To Shut Down. Now What?

As the government shutdown enters its third week, roughly 42 million Americans, one in every ten, are two weeks away from having their benefits stopped. Now what?

Don’t take my word for it: Even our generals and senior officers at the Pentagon have lost all trust in Pete Hegseth. He is simply unfit to lead our military and a danger to our national security.

Secretary's critics worry Pentagon at risk of enduring damage amid firings, resignations and early retirements of high-ranking staff

Meiselas: California Gov. Gavin Newsom just announced he’s deploying the National Guard — to help Californians hurt by Trump’s government shutdown. While Trump uses the Guard to attack Americans, Newsom is sending them to deliver food and support families in need.

New from me: TikTok ignored repeated questions about whether and how they share data with ICE. Also, earlier this year, they quietly updated their policies about what happens when law enforcement asks for your data. 1/

TikTok Won’t Say If It’s Giving ICE Your Data

Changes to TikTok's policies make it easier for the company to share users’ personal information with governments. TikTok did not respond to questions about the changes.
