We will be granting 15 Black-led organizations $100,000 so they can provide direct payments to Black mamas and caregivers who have been disproportionately affected by SNAP.

We refuse to let them starve our people into cages.

AOC on MTG retiring: "She's carefully timing her departure just 1-2 days after her pension kicks in and after making millions of dollars insider trading stocks for weapons manufacturers and others while in office."

Imagine any job, where one person demanded death for their coworkers from the branch office for simply posting a video about maintaining lawful conduct.

They’d be fired.

Now imagine that same person was already a felon, and associated themselves with a convicted pedophile.

They’d be fired.

Relying on ChatGPT to teach you about a topic leaves you with shallower knowledge than Googling and reading about it, according to new research that compared what more than 10,000 people knew after using one method or the other.

Houlahan points out that courts have found Trump has taken at least 150 unlawful actions since re-taking office, "so yes, those kinds of things are going on. Just because you are the president doesn't mean everything that comes out of your mouth is lawful."

In about three years the entire university pivot to AI curricula and schools and programs is going to be so deeply embarrassing. We will all pretend it never happened and I will be standing there, looking at people with a mirror in my eyes. This is all so embarrassing.

Some news: tomorrow at 9am, Ted Koppel + CBS Sunday Morning will air a two-part story on the devastating surge of full-time workers being pushed into homelessness.

I'll be interviewed along with two families from There Is No Place for Us. It would mean a lot if you'd watch and help spread the word.

“Many of its nearly 50 grant programs have been paused or ended, according to an examination of its website. About 2/3 of the staff has been laid off and, last month, most members of the scholarly council that must review a majority of grants were abruptly fired by the White House.”

Wow, huge credit to Katie and the rest of the nutrition team at @centeronbudget.bsky.social. USDA has now issued revised numbers because CBPP caught them either accidentally or intentionally making huge errors that would severely underfund SNAP, in direct violation of court orders.
