California voters on Tuesday overwhelmingly passed Proposition 50 in a race called by the Associated Press before a single ballot was counted—a reflection of decisive support in a victory that significantly boosts Democratic chances of retaking the House of Representatives next year.

We need a new generation of leaders who are the voices of democracy, freedom, social justice, & the rule of law.

A new generation that renews the “we” in “we the people.”

Instead of fretting over Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic Party should embrace him as part of its future.

🚨When you feel you and your family require housing on a military base - to be “safe,” you are the problem. When these people are members of the president’s senior admin/advisory staff, they are (collectively) our problem. They have declared themselves enemies of the people. 1/2

If there's $3.4 Million of taxpayer dollars to waste on Trump's Great Gatsby Halloween party at Mar-a-Lago, then there's money to fund SNAP & feed hungry kids.

OK Senator Hawley, let’s put aside the fact that you voted for the largest cut to SNAP in history just this Summer.

Before Leader Thune adjourns the Senate bring your bill to fund SNAP to the floor and let’s try to pass it.

Anyone mocking those who will starve without essential food assistance, that is the SNAP program, is a piece of shit human being.

No amount of "christian", "✝️", or "jesus is king" will hide what a piece of person someone is for cheering for people to starve.

This is the Trump/Johnson Epstein Shutdown

If Johnson swears-in Adelita Girjalva, the House will
override his scheme to block a vote demanding release of ALL the Epstein files

Clearly whatever is in the Epstein files about Trump & his pals is really, really, really bad!!

It is a choice to give Argentina a $40 billion bailout

It is a choice to use ICE in a way which terrorizes US citizens

It is a choice to tear down the East Wing of the White House and spend $350 million on a ballroom

Just as it is a choice to starve 42 million Americans by refusing to fund SNAP

The White House is illegally refusing to use reserve funds to pay for SNAP benefits and Donald Trump is fully aware of this.

Don’t be gaslit, the money is there, but Trump refuses to prioritize the needs of American citizens because his main concern is a ballroom.

Trump doesn’t care about you.

SNAP benefits have never been cut off in any government shutdown... until now.
Not once.
Not under Bush.
Not under Obama.
Not even during other long shutdowns.

The only two times Americans have come close to losing food assistance - 2018 shutdown and now - were both under Donald Trump's presidency.

In 2018, the USDA had to scramble to pay February benefits early to stop people from going hungry.

Now in 2025, they're warning that millions may not get November benefits at all.
We're talking about families who rely on $6 a day for food... being told there's "no funding"... while billionaires get tax breaks and ICE burns through millions on tear gas.

This isn't fiscal responsibility.
It's cruelty.

Which seems to be the theme of Trump's administration."

We have an obligation to care for our society. There is no better return than investing in our children, which means ensuring they do not go hungry.

I'm directing $2.2 million per week to provide support to Washington's food banks in the wake of the Congressional Republicans’ shutdown.

Our state will keep looking for innovative solutions while SNAP is suspended. President Trump needs to tell his party to do their jobs.
