there's something grotesque about watching espn grab up all the media rights to so many women's leagues when you know how badly they intentionally tanked the WNBA's ratings for over a decade

The current homepage of USDA. This is deeply and profoundly fucked up. And illegal. People need to go to jail.

Also, because SNAP is used to buy food, the economic benefit is the same no matter who uses it. Every $1 spent on SNAP generates $1.50 of economic activity. Loosening requirements and getting more people on SNAP would arguably save the government money.

i hate when people say that some people "abuse" snap benefits bc it's food. if youre eating the food then you're not abusing the ability to buy food. even if you could afford the food but you're getting it for free, it's fucking food and it's going in your belly! there is no "waste"!

I've often said that in a political choice where one has to be perfect VS being human (mistakes, past transgressions) most people will choose being human and bristle at the idea you must be perfect. It's why the left loses. But on the substance, Platner passes the smell test.

your bill was atrocious, your policy positions re: immigration are violent and oppressive, and you should be embarrassed to be so very functionally indistinguishable from the GOP.

Chris Murphy @chrismurphyct.bsky.social · Jul 11

This "Democrats and Republicans" line is bullshit.

I wrote a bipartisan bill last year that would have stopped all asylum seekers from being released into the country. It gave POTUS emergency power to shut down the border. It put billions into border security.

Trump killed it.

Really is Christmas for Criminals out there because all the federal agents and federal prosecutors aren't doing anything about real crime, they're spending their time either kidnapping people or prosecuting stuff like this:

It was further part of the conspiracy that the co-conspirators, including RABBITT, ABUGHAZALEH, MARTIN, SHARP, STRAW and WALSH, physically hindered and impeded Agent A and the Government Vehicle such that Agent A was forced to drive at an extremely slow rate of speed to avoid injuring any of the conspirators and in doing so slowly progressed towards the BSSA to discharge the duties of his office.

HAPPENING NOW: Portland Police Commander Franz Schoening testifies that federal officers on Oct. 18 barraged protesters with crowd control munitions — not because of any violence but because another federal officer accidentally shot tear gas onto the roof of the ICE facility.

ICE violently detained a 16 year old US citizen & sent him to the hospital with severe injuries to his back and neck.

The kid was screaming “I’m underage! I was just going to school!”

That didn’t stop ICE from putting a knee on his neck.

Arnoldo Bazan didn’t deserve this.

No one deserves this.

My reporting also confirmed that the WNBA tried to silence fan support for the players’ CBA negotiations at the WNBA Finals—having Mandalay Bay security threaten to ban fans & organizers who were handing out “Pay Them What You Owe Them” signs at Game 1.

In one of the most important off-seasons of the wnba Lexie Hull decided to use an interview to throw shade and claim everyone is jealous of her team. I’ve been saying it for awhile but it’s so clear that being insufferable is mandatory to be on that team. What a moronic move.
