I just saw a video that said cutting SNAP would lower food prices because it would cut demand.

I'm starting to think that Econ 101 either needs to be drastically overhauled or that you cannot take it unless you commit to taking four econ courses one heavily focused on externalities and elasticity.

I'm actually not upset that Jordan and Megan didn't even make it to the alter. They seemed a mismatch along several dynamics, even before adding a diabetic child into the mix. #LoveIsBlind #LIB
I'm totally NOT surprised about Kalybriah and Edmund. I would have thrown my shoe at the screen if she said yes! You shouldn't have to parent a spouse. Edmund will make someone a great husband, but he still has things to work out. #LoveIsBlind #LIB

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.

So, uh, I just sent an inquiry about getting court records from a 1939 murder trial in Somerset County, PA.
Why?
Oh, no reason.
I have to get back to work but let me just tease that this one might be VERY interesting!

Take note of all these people turning out for protests in small towns in red states.

Remember them the next time you’re inclined to write an area off because “they voted for this.”

"Why don't they want to work with us🥺?"
Because the spirit of their BB Mother Cirie Fields came into their minds and said "Don't hand Jag the win again like everyone else" #TAR38

A rare admission from the administration that policy choices have knock-off effects.

In this case: immigration crackdowns raise your grocery bill.

Just a reminder, the layoffs in govt were just done out of spite, not necessity

Meanwhile the world has stopped buying American orange juice.
It now trades at 43% of the price it went for when Trump took office.

The IRS is laying off people during the shutdown, even though it was rehiring staff it previously fired because it was so shorthanded.
This one stands out because firing IRS employees costs the government money, since they bring in about $6-8 for every dollar spent on tax enforcement

Farm bankruptcies are back in the news, so it's time to pull this chart out again.

Hey look they kept rising during Trump's first term. Then they went way down under Biden.

Now they're up again? So weird. Thanks Farm Bureau for the graphic
