Trump: "Under Boot Edge Edge - another grossly incompetent. Get on his bicycle, ride to work. What they do is they take the fiber optics & they take fiber, try to hook it into copper. And fiber and copper don't mix. You can't do it...you saw that by the helicopter crash. You saw that into the plane"

Over and over, Jesus made it clear: food is not something people need to prove themselves worthy of.
This is not about humanity deserving to be fed but about the inhumanity of those withholding the meal.

Here is my peace plan for Ukraine/Russia.
1. Russia gets the fuck out of Ukraine.
2. Putin goes on trial in the Hague.
3. Russia pays everyone for everything.
4. Trump gets impeached, convicted, and sent to jail.
Thanks for your attention to this matter.

Great piece on Trump's 'Quiet, piggy' moment. This phrase could be the new shorthand way to explain how abusers silence their victims. Keep quiet or be punished cruelly.

Heidi Stevens: After Trump’s ‘Quiet, piggy’ moment, we’re done asking why survivors don’t come forward, right?
If we’re going to become a nation that truly protects children and women, we have to stop giving a pass to sexual abusers, writes Heidi Stevens.

Trumps cut to Continuum of Care grant criteria, cuts funding for permanent supportive housing by 50%. 170,000 people could become newly homeless. This is an outrageous attack on the most vulnerable of populations.

I’m thankful the courts are moving quickly & calling out the Administration’s unacceptable delays in helping our most vulnerable put food on the table.

There will be another 60 vote Friday* on the garbage shutdown deal. If we can convince just one Senator from the 52 republicans and 8 Dems that voted yes to flip, we could still stop this. Please jump on the phone today, call them, and share this widely.

In response, 25 states sued the federal government, and two federal judges have ordered the Trump administration to use the funds.

MA residents that receive SNAP: Don't forget about the HIP program! If you have anything left of your October SNAP money, you can use it in November for your $40 in free fruits and vegetables. It's not much, but it's definitely something!

The federal government has the money to continue funding SNAP benefits — they’re choosing to suspend it and harm millions of families across the country already struggling to make ends meet.
I’m leading a lawsuit against the Trump Administration to release these funds immediately.

On Threads, the usual suspects are telling ppl about to lose SNAP benefits to just start a garden. As a gardener, I had to laugh. You need at LEAST an acre of land to feed a family of 4. Start-up costs are enormous. But yes, subsistence farming on the balcony of your rental apartment is the answer
