Trump’s USDA is pretending it can’t use emergency funds for food stamps.

So Americans will go hungry 🚫 🍽️
while Democrats fight for healthcare 🏥
and Trumps tears down the White House 🧨

Yup, that tracks.

Exclusive: USDA says it won't use emergency funds for food stamps

States also won't be reimbursed if they cover SNAP expenses on their own, the memo says.

Let's be clear about a few things
- he's building/renovating/updating the bunker that sat under the East Wing
- the ballroom is a cover story, just like the original East Wing
- he lied and continues to lie about this
- because he doesn't plan on leaving

Online censorship is one of the many levers of state power right-wingers have been pulling to try and snuff out queer and trans existence. But instead of fighting back, some Democrats are helping them at the controls. Read the full #OpEd from @fightforthefuture.org

From late-night host cancellations to removing LGBTQ+ history from government sites, politicians in both parties are contributing to the overwriting of the internet — a place where lots of queer and t...

Don’t open the door. Don’t answer questions.

Spencer Reynolds @sreynolds.bsky.social · 2d

We're at the point in the story where the FBI is showing up at a dude's house because he attended a protest. Without suspicion of a crime, agents ask important questions like who produced signs for the event.

And it had an impact--he decided not to go back to the streets to voice his opinions.

Ken Klippenstein @kenklippenstein.bsky.social · 2d

I obtained video of two FBI agents visiting an anti-ICE protester not charged with any crime.

While the media continue to mock Trump's war on "Antifa" as legally impossible, the FBI is quietly implementing it with investigations like these:
