The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

There's money available to feed poor people. The Trump regime has deleted that fact from a government website, but it's still a fact.
Donald Trump deleted this from the government website.
Let's be clear: there's funding available to cover SNAP benefits next month. Trump is stopping SNAP benefits because he wants to. He is forcing mommas and babies to go hungry.

Sadly, this is going to apply to pretty much the ENTIRE federal government at this point. We've collectively waited FAR too long to do anything anymore to really stem the tide. We can't 'turn things around,' but there's a slim chance we can still go THROUGH to a better something on the other side.
This was a great recap of why we literally can not "go back." The America that we used to know is GONE, and it definitionally can not return. But what we CAN do is try to build something NEW that's better than what used to be.
But we can't start building something new until we first ADMIT WE LOST.

Our WH East Wing was demolished for a ballroom - paid for by donors.
These aren’t acts of benevolence or patriotism.
This is the oligarchy assuming control, insidiously becoming part of how we function.
Every American should reject it.

Donald Trump is building a $300 million luxury ballroom and sending $40 BILLION to Argentina.
But when the cost of groceries, health care, utilities — just about everything — is skyrocketing, America's seniors only get another $56 a month.
That's not enough in Trump's economy.

Does the Speaker of the House know what's going on in the country?
It's not clear that he does, as Mike Johnson's communication strategy seems to rely heavily on being unaware.
When faced with questions he should be able to answer, he has a reliable response: "I don't know."
