The reason SNAP costs "exploded" starting in 2021 was because USDA implemented a change to the calculation of how much families should spend on food each month. This change was mandated by Congress in the farm bill that passed... in 2018, when Trump was president.

Opinion | Marissa Seuc-Hester: My Boulder County friend was taken by ICE
As a local faith leader, I’ve spent years welcoming immigrant families into our community. Now, one of them has been detained, and I fear what that says about who we are becoming.

If you're in need of positive and rather wholesome news, there's a high school teacher named Bryan who took a ton of freely licensed celebrity headshots at the New York Film Festival last month for Wikipedia, and I truly can't believe how drastic the upgrade is for some articles (thread)

Please watch. Please share.

Trump's masked thugs attacked a blind protestor in South Portland last weekend and dragged him away like an animal.

The man is 4'6" and legally blind.

A US citizen.

"They picked the weakest person they could find," he told The Oregonian/OregonLive.

Take them to court.
Get an injunction
Then to appeals court.
Then to a higher court.
Then sue for something else.
Make this a 3-year project.

Start fighting #Trump the way he would be fighting.

Slap an injunction on the demo company, the construction company, and the architect. Make them show the permitting process, the design, the costs.

and then tie this thing up in court so that everyone can look at Trump’s destruction for years.

the symbolism of “Trump destroying the White House for a overpriced luxury vanity project, during a government shut down, days after a historically-large mass demonstration against his regime called “No Kings”’ would be rightly viewed as laying it on a little thick if it was in a work of fiction

Trump has almost 11M alleged followers on Truth Social.

@aoc.bsky.social has ~20% of that here.

But his recent posts, including diarrhea jet, struggle to get the same like or repost numbers AOC‘s regularly get.

Bots? Worse platform? Almost certainly. But is his act wearing thin with MAGA? 🤔

it’s maddening to watch the national D apparatus waste so many moments they could be effectively messaging. “the american president publicly fantasizes about literally shitting on your grandmother & children & here’s the proof he does that” is a thing one might be loud about if one actually cared.

An ICE agent, who is being arrested for drunk driving and nearly killing his little kids & others, tries to stop the arrest by racially profiling the officers arresting him. Amazing to watch the courtesy given to him as he is belligerent and uncooperative

I've recently been reminded that at least some of the immigrants that Abbot sent the Texas national guard to kidnap, are the same immigrants Abbott flew to Chicago in the dead of winter in flip flops and a t shirt to overwhelm the city. Instead Chicago residents clothed, fed and resettled them

In the 2025 #Boulder city council election, should voters focus on crime?

Maybe, and crime is a crucial issue.

But the data might surprise you.

Here’s Jill Grano on the numbers, and what’s been going on under this council and the previous one’s watch.

The people now identified as Christian Nationalists have been classifying their work as war for decades.
this piece has been in the works a while but honestly i could not have asked for a better foil than ezra klein's interview with ta-nehisi coates. klein longs for peacetime--but you don't get to decide when you're in a fight.

We have exited a long period of peace and entered into a struggle not unlike war, in which all the old certainties have gone malleable and the future of the republic is at stake.
