I put off doing the inevitable…I called my insurance provider.

My current premium is $480. It will be almost $900 next year.

Thanks, Trump voters.

Yes, this is a real post made by the Department of Homeland Security.

None of this is normal.
Dementia Donald, y’all. Having a president this unwell makes us weak af.
He's trying to tell everyone to watch South Park?

This is how our government has been corrupted:

1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat

We must get big money out of politics.

It is the root of our dysfunction.

Never in the history of the US has any president openly and repeatedly called for the investigation, arrest & prosecution of his political opponents. While many continue to shrug these things off and normalize them, I will never stop pointing out that this is what autocrats do.

I have been charged in a federal indictment sought by the Department of Justice.

This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I’m not backing down, and we’re going to win.

The Trump administration has a rainy day fund that will keep SNAP from expiring in November. Trump is refusing to use it.

Funding SNAP isn't a choice he can make. It's a legal obligation. USDA must release the funds and stop punishing the American people.

Just so we’re clear: If the government doesn’t use the USDA money to fund SNAP, we’re eating the rich, right?

So the president took a dementia test, and then they administered an MRI. Where’s the media on this?

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 85th day out of the last 97.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

If you make 130% of the federal poverty level, you qualify for SNAP.

A family of four, making $40,560, qualifies for SNAP benefits meaning thousands of Missouri teachers qualify.

I’m tired of the bullshit. Most of the people who receive snap benefits work.

AOC: There was a day before his presidency, and there will be a day after — and it belongs to us.

Trump on a blatantly unconstitutional third term: “I would love to do it.”

He then lies that his approvals are up (they’re down) and spends 60 seconds rambling about how much smarter he is than @aoc.bsky.social & @crockett.house.gov (our money would be on them)

Just checking: the republicans that attacked and sent marshals to arrest Texas dems for not showing up to work (in an effort to protect voting rights, btw) are the same republicans that are not showing up to work, yeah?
