Trump is once again running to the Supreme Court. His administration has asked the justices to block a D.C. appeals court ruling that determined he lacked the authority to dismiss Shira Perlmutter, the director of the U.S. Copyright Office.

Here’s a few lifelines while SNAP hangs in limbo. NYC has community fridges, food banks, and mutual aid hubs still feeding families. Check City Harvest, Food Bank for NYC, and local churches—they’re the real safety net when the system plays games. #Pink #Momsky

Republicans are taking away health care from 15 million Americans.

They are doubling premiums for 20 million.

Now, they are illegally withholding emergency SNAP funding that keeps millions of children from going hungry.

All so they can give $1 trillion in tax breaks to the 1%.

Trump sent the military into a hurricane to distract from Epstein, and they had to turn around. Endangering troops for personal gain. Our military has never been so poorly managed.

The rise in costs you’re feeling, it’s by design. Skyrocketing prices, government shutdowns, and fear mongering aren’t accidents, they’re part of a deliberate strategy to break our trust in government and keep power concentrated in the hands of a few.

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.

🚨BREAKING: The Department of Justice (DOJ) this week placed two federal prosecutors on leave after they wrote in a court filing that on Jan. 6, 2021, “thousands of people comprising a mob of rioters attacked the U.S. Capitol,” a source familiar with the personnel moves told Democracy Docket.

Apparently this is controversial, but everyone deserves food regardless of if they can work or not. No one deserves to starve.

Last year, Andrew Cuomo brought in nearly $5 million for "consulting."

We don't know who paid him.

Or who he now owes.

I am thinking of the people of Jamaica, and the many New Yorkers with loved ones there, as Hurricane Melissa — fueled by a warming ocean — grows into the strongest storm ever to bear down upon the island.
As the Atlantic Ocean warms, climate change is fueling Hurricane Melissa's ferocity
Hurricane Melissa has rapidly intensified into a Category 5 storm due to warming oceans linked to climate change.

Wanted to share a clip from my appearance on CNN calling out the dangerous level of anti-Muslim hate being spewed against Zohran Mamdani by Andrew Cuomo and Eric Adams. These are despicable smears intended to incite hate. There is NO place for this--and esp no place for this in the Democratic Party!

Legal experts are sounding the alarm on a shocking federal appeals court ruling that all but permitted President Donald Trump’s deployment of National Guard troops into Portland, Oregon. They warn that, if upheld, the order would give Trump unbridled power to use the military domestically

It’s more than just bad priorities. It’s about lack of basic decency.

There’s $5 billion sitting in SNAP reserves right now. The money’s there.

The Administration just decided feeding families matters less than bailing out Argentina.
