So... @snopes.com fact-checked the @levernews.com's big scoop about the stealth food safety dereg added to the shutdown deal...and Snopes found that everything we reported was 100% accurate.
Government funding bill cuts food safety regulations. See the provisions for yourself
The bill prohibited the FDA from enforcing regulations aimed at increasing traceability of the supply chain, among other rules.

After Zohran’s win, if Dems reorient their party back to New Deal-style populism and genuinely combat the corporations and billionaires ruining everyone’s lives, then this moment of discontent across the country could have staying power — and be a positive force.
Welcome To The New Uprising
Zohran Mamdani’s victory could be a turning point for Democrats — if the party finally learns from its past leaders’ betrayals.

Excited for 2028 when some state SoS kicks Trump off the ballot, Federal district and appellate judges uphold it and then SCOTUS issues an unsigned 6-3 shadow docket rulling staying the lower court ruling, allowing Trump to stay on the ballot and schedules arguments for the case for February 2029.

The NYT editorial board told Democrats that they must discard populism be more “centrist” to win. Stanford’s @adambonica.bsky.social ran the data that the NYT used and shows that the entire premise is false.
