I would suggest @cnn.com dial down the old white men bashing #Mamdani, calling him Hitler. More young voices please. They are the ones hurting the most and the actual future of this country. As David Hogg said, no one is listening to the old guys with Rolexes telling us how we should live.

(Not paying out any SNAP benefits is violating the court order. She can insist they're complying all she wants, but that doesn't make it true.)

Q: Trump wrote that SNAP benefits will only be given when Democrats reopen the government. As written, how would that not violate the court order?

LEAVITT: I've now answered this question several times. We are complying with the court's order

So, once again, they will make sure we lose. He is starving people for his own agenda. We need to take care of one another and take back out democracy. This is one of the last strongholds.

Your president is starving you for a leverage.

TWO judges have ordered Trump to cover SNAP, using available emergency funds for the program.

Yet the president refuses. He would rather build a ballroom than stop children from starving.

Who advises these people? Here's the answer: The People of NY voted in who they wanted to represent them. In America, we respect that. That's called democracy. That's what we fight for - the working class, equal rights, and democracy.

Sounds a bit like Wright simply heard about Elon Musk powering his GROK AI datacenter in Memphis by choking black people with untreated generator exhaust and thought that was a really swell idea.

'How come I can’t breathe?': Musk's data company draws a backlash in Memphis

The company’s turbines — enough to power 280,000 homes — run without emission controls in an area that leads Tennessee in asthma hospitalizations.

Right. Because daycare is over $1000 a month, food has skyrocketed and no one can afford a home. These fascists have ruined us.

Why don't you make the connection of Heritage Foundation leader's book, which spells out the plan to eliminate Harvard, Project 2025, and the weird Dominionism taking over this country?

They didn't fight hard enough. That is why we lost. It's also why the same people shouldn't be running again. Just look what Trump is able to accomplish - misery - but he's accomplished it fast. Look at the UK ousting Andrew. We've achieved NOTHING - not for Epstein victims and not for the coup.

Good. Learn from it. If you starve Americans and make it impossible to secure housing, despite working, you are taking advantage of us. Sorry you may have to pay 2% more taxes, but this country is now lopsided and the middle and working class are getting crushed.

Kristi Noem claims that ICE has not detained or arrested any US citizens. We're calling BS.

More than 170 US citizens have been held by immigration agents

ProPublica uncovered that Americans have been kicked, dragged, and detained for days.
