Readers are the bestest people! How incredibly kind and community focused to the urgent need! What the US president is putting citizens through is unconscionable!
Ahead of the 1st shutdown of US food aid to hungry Americans in 60 years, some of the 200,000 Little Free Library locations are converting into food pantries. Thanks @littlefreelibrary.bsky.social

Just a reminder that 48% of SNAP recipients work full time. 39% of SNAP recipients are kids. 20% of SNAP recipients are seniors. If you think it's funny that people will go hungry you are a terrible person.

Our new health insurance premium feels more like a shakedown‼️
Thank you, @politicsgirl.bsky.social , for sharing your story. You’re right—there are millions like you.
Our new premium is over $3K/month for a family of three. Could we scrape it together? Maybe. Should we have to? No.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 81st day out of the last 93.
12 days of work in over 3 months.
With full pay and benefits.
The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.
It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

WOW: The White House says the president's MAIN PRIORITY is his BALLROOM. SNAP is ending. Subsidies for health care are gong to double and in some instances quadruple plan premiums. The government is shut down. The cost of living is through the roof. And his priority is his ballroom.

This entire conversation is based on the lie that democrats shut down the government. Karl just goes along with that premise.
KARL: I mean, you could swear in Adelita Grijalva tomorrow, right?
MIKE JOHNSON: No, not tomorrow. We couldn't. We wouldn't.

I tried to talk to Joni Ernst about Medicaid. She didn't listen

It’s of note that during tonight’s hearing the DoJ didn’t even try to make the case that changing conditions on the ground in Portland warranted the CA National Guard. Instead they relied on legal technicalities. Proving again that what they say in court is different than lies they tell the public.

Many low-risk Iowans can't get a booster to protect themselves and their families from COVID-19. The governor denies the problem exists.
