Food bank director: “for every meal that a food bank provides, the SNAP program provides nine. There’s no way we can meet that gap.”

Imagine a D president were refusing to spend money Congress provided for priorities only important to Rs while also spending money on purposes he wanted that Congress didn’t even provide.

Would a funding bill that lets the president keep illegally ignoring the budget be “clean?” Of course not.

“Kidnapped and Disappeared.” That’s what’s happening in Chicago & across the US, courtesy of the Trump Regime.

@balint.house.gov joins me to talk about how accountability is achieved through shadow hearings & how Republicans are reacting to Day 27 of the shutdown.

Kind of wild story

A Michigan elected official is married to a neo-Nazi. Some constituents have a problem with that.

Meghyn Booth says she didn’t know she was married to a neo-Nazi influencer, not exactly.

It seems to me the calculus of the past was that voters wanted to move on, forward looking and optimistic. They thought it was the "healing" move.

But this is so much worse on a massive scale and I think this time voters have made more explicit they want accountability. (I know I do!)

Right, rule of law is one of the reasons people chose us as the safe harbor economy. We have to show it still works.

Presidents fail to deliver on campaign promises all the time, of course. But the free IVF pledge had served an especially important function for Trump while on the trail. www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-empt...

Minutes after saying he doesn't want to meet with Mark Carney, Trump says "I got along great with Kim Jong Un. I liked him, he liked me. If he wants to meet, I'll be in South Korea."
