Took me like 5 minutes to find that past administrations used legal workarounds & contingency funds to keep SNAP (food stamps) running during previous government shutdowns. But Trump just told his team not to do that during HIS (GOP has full control of the govt) government shutdown. 😡

One of my favorite photos of the Obama era, in the East Wing.

As one commenter said:

"Obama. Dog. Running. Love. Everything the Felon hates."

No wonder he destroyed it 💔
is this the guy who was on SNK? he wasn't funny then and his ignorance makes him look like a fool now
When idiot Ron Schneider was born in 1963, the infant mortality rate was 29/1,000. It is now close to 5/1,000. So, no, children were NOT healthier when he was a kid. And he was, clearly, dropped on his head.

Today, the White House Press Secretary told the country that this ridiculous damn ballroom is “the president’s main priority”…not reopening the government, not lowering the cost of groceries, not lowering the cost of housing, not lowering the cost of healthcare….building a ballroom

Want to hear the recordings yourself? Watch @propublica.org's

A beloved Bench figure may soon become Boise’s latest historic landmark. Betty the Washerwoman has been overlooking Vista Avenue near Overland for about 65 years.

On Monday, Oct. 27, the City Council scheduled a vote to decide if the iconic animatronic will become part of the town’s history.

If he’s only going to send aid to red states, blue states need to stop footing the bill.

We’re the giver states and fund the rest of the country.

He won’t use OUR money on us? He shouldn’t get our money.
he lives there as a benefit of his job. Like all tenants when they leave, he should be made to restore to what the house was when he first moved in
If a temporary resident of the White House can totally demolish the East Wing to build a gaudy ballroom, without any authority, approval, or regulation, he can tear down the rest of the White House to build a Walmart. That this destruction is allowed underscores how off the rails our country is now.

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube.

Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X).

Shaheen: What’s ironic about this is that 57% of people who identify as MAGA Republicans benefit from those tax credits. 76% of people who receive premium tax credits are in states that Trump won. I don’t understand why our colleagues have been so reluctant to address this looming problem.
