This is so so disturbing. Trump is now pardoning January 6th rioters for unrelated crimes, just to reward them for their violence to keep him in power.

The Republican Party is in the full time business of endorsing and incentivizing political violence. So scary.

If you have to get permission to teach in your area of expertise from people who are definitionally not qualified to adjudicate your expertise then you are no longer working at a university.

You’re working at a state propaganda factory.

“Those living in a household with at least one disabled person experience rates of food insecurity about double those without. A recent analysis released by the Center for Economic and Policy Research… showed that 20.4% of households containing at least one person with a disability rely on SNAP”
SNAP benefits are a ‘lifeline’ — especially for people with disabilities
For those with disabilities who rely on the aid, its uncertainty threatens not just nutrition, but independence.

Dreamers were once obvious candidates for a path to citizenship. Now, they’re getting picked up, detained, and set for potential deportation.

Ironic isn’t it that the Dutch government is standing up for our veterans when the current American administration is trying to erase their sacrifice?

Trump is STILL trying to deny SNAP benefits, even though several military families rely on these benefits and it’s reported that one million+ veterans use the program.

Trump and Republicans don’t value or respect our soldiers and they certainly don’t value working class Americans.

VOTE THEM OUT!
