"SNAP provides agency by allowing families to buy what they need, when they need it, while circulating dollars back into local economies," writes Wellness in the Schools' Alexina Cather in an op-ed. "SNAP is not charity. SNAP is a tool for maintaining stability, dignity, and self-determination.”
Op-ed: SNAP Is a Lifeline. I Know Firsthand.
SNAP reduces hunger, lifts children out of poverty, improves health outcomes, and supports local economies.

They shall not grow old, as we that are left grow old;
age shall not wither them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
we will remember them.

Not many people are talking about the children being harmed by #ICELawlessness but it's important to talk about.

What's happening to these kids is being paid for by our tax dollars.

We're paying for the torture of children.

I know this is beyond grim, but we must let people know about this!

Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer.

He is a computer safety researcher.

And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine.

In under 1600 words.

I got back to my office after the vote last night and recorded this. There's no way to sugarcoat what happened. And my fear is that Trump gets stronger, not weaker, because of this acquiescence. I'm angry - like you. But I choose to keep fighting.

1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

There’s a disturbing lack of outrage over ICE’s aggressive tackling and arrest of a non verbal autistic man in Chicago.

Just like the lack of outrage over Rodney Taylor, a disabled double amputee who’s been held in solitary for months.

Disabled lives matter too!
Disabled People are Being Mistreated in ICE Detention Facilities
Why is no one talking about it? Where's the media? Where's the public outcry? Another example of the pervasive nature of ableism and how society views disabled people as expendable.

Get your flu shot! 💉

💪It may not prevent you from getting the flu but it will lessen the severity of the disease.

Several pharmacies and grocery stores will give you coupons and discounts for shopping - how this poster bought some of my Halloween candy stash last month! 🍭
Flu is coming soon. That epi curve looks a bit ominous. #IDSky

Good explainer article & public health message 👇

I’ve been a T-Mobile customer for years. But the T stands for Trump now.

They carry Trump Mobile, killed DEI to please Trump’s FCC, union-bust, backed policies that strip healthcare, and are funneling millions to Musk.

They weren't terrorists. They weren't cartel members. They had no fentanyl. And they weren't coming here.

They were transporting cocaine. To Trinidad.

Most importantly, they were human beings.

And they were murdered.

By the government of the United States of America.

"A team of independent forensic analysts examined their testimony. The experts called it consistent and credible, saying most of the acts described met the United Nations’ definition of torture."

In our name, with our tax dollars.

Trump II is an indelible stain on our national honor.

There’s a young southern woman on tt doing an experiment: calling churches & asking if they can help her get baby formula, saying she can’t afford it. Of the 30+ she’s called, nearly every church has said no. The ones who said yes were:

Black Baptist Churches
A Mosque
A small Appalachian church
