REMINDER: President Biden NEVER cut SNAP payments, never even had a government shutdown.
In fact, he cut child poverty in half.
He cut child hunger, too.
I miss having a REAL President.

Trump saying today that he can't run for a 3rd term does NOT mean he won't remain in office after 2028. The Constitution means NOTHING to Trump and MAGA. If Trump is alive and functioning in 2028, I can 100% assure you that he will try to remain in office by declaring an emergency, etc.

Adelita Grijalva has now waited the longest to be sworn in of any winner of congressional special election. GOP Speaker Johnson's refusal to swear her in is the latest reminder of the GOP's rejection of democracy. My article: deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/gops-refus...
GOP’s refusal to swear in Rep-elect Adelita Grijalva is a continuation of Jan. 6 and GOP’s rejection of democracy
