Food, water and housing are basic human rights … yet many people will be struggling to keep a roof over the heads and food on the table with SNAP funding cut off.

Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens is trying to ease the burden.

He’s paused evictions and water shut offs through Jan 31st 2026.

The president of the United States thinks asylum-seekers come from mental asylums.

He says it in almost every interview where the topic of migration comes up.

How is this not 25th Amendment territory? How is he not an embarrassment to this entire country?
