The GOP says the USDA food insecurity survey is “redundant, costly, politicized, and extraneous."

I say cutting it is “remarkably convenient” just as the GOP cuts SNAP benefits.

It’s a lot easier to hide the damage when you don’t collect the statistics!

USDA cancels survey tracking how many Americans struggle to get enough food

The Department of Agriculture said it will end a longstanding annual food insecurity survey. Experts say the move will obscure the effects of recent changes that will lead to people losing food aid.

The shameless GOP lying about the No Kings gatherings scheduled for next Saturday reveals how deeply hostile much of the Republican Party is to “the right of the people peaceably to assemble.” I look forward to our local No Kings event, and urge my fellow Americans to attend in their communities.

Saw the first movie when it came out. It was a stinker. The second movie— same. I don’t get it.

In my state brandishing a weapon like this is a criminal offense.

If I was a federal employee and Trump was threatening not to pay me for time worked… I would suddenly become sick and call out till he (or his handlers) come to these senses.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

The only world leader demanding the downfall of much of America is the guy who swore an oath to protect it.

The truth is, the government has been shutting down since January. Mass illegal firings, withholding funds, censorship, corruption. Making this fight about medicaid subsidies is fine. But no democrat should be voting to fund a dictatorship.
