The people on the right getting mad at Tucker Carlson for hosting Holocaust denier Nick Fuentes on his podcast donโ€™t seem to have gotten mad at all at Donald Trump for hosting Holocaust denier Nick Fuentes at his home for dinner. Funny that.

Obama: "The weird videos of a US president with a crown on his head flying a fighter jet & dumping poop on American citizens - that's not even worth booing about. Because all of that is a distraction from the fact that your situation, your life has not gotten better. They do it so you won't notice"

WTF. Everyone, cameras out. Get it all on video.
Hereโ€™s a disturbing video from Evanston of a federal agent hitting a man on the ground as people yell that he canโ€™t breathe.
Is this a skit?
The way he rubs his inhumanity in Americansโ€ face never ceases to stun me.

Heโ€™s illegally refusing to pay food stamp benefitsโ€ฆ

โ€ฆwhile he throws a ridiculously over the top Gatsby party for his right wing millionaire and corporate friends.

An estimated 15.7 million workers use SNAP. Itโ€™s a lifeline for those in low-wage jobs.

Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker.

Donโ€™t be angry at workers for using food stamps.

Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.

For New Yorkers who work the night shift, it can be nearly impossible to participate in political life of our city.

So tonight weโ€™re bringing this campaign to them โ€” starting with taxi drivers waiting at LaGuardia.

Billionaires are freeloaders
Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year.

That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare.

Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.

Amazon just announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year.

UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year.

Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

The President wants to use the military to crack down on Americans who are exercising their 1st Amendment rights to oppose him. I canโ€™t think of a better reason to insist on exercising those rights.

Cost to fund SNAP and keep 42 million people from starving:

$100 billion

Cost of lost revenue due to tax cuts for the richest Americans in the top 1%:

$100 billion

One is decried as "welfare." One is not.

Why?

Hurricanes feed off of warm water. Watch how quickly the eye of #Melissa collapsed as it moved onto land and over the mountainous terrain of Jamaica, and how quickly it is reforming now that it has moved back over water! I will be adding this radar loop to my earth science lectures.

BREAKING: A Department of Homeland Security officer shot at an unarmed black man during a traffic stop in DC, and the DC police officer said he was told by superiors not to mention the shooting in his incident report. 1/ www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...
Lawyers allege cover-up after fed shoots at man during D.C. traffic stop
Neither D.C. police nor the Department of Homeland Security have explained why the Homeland Security agent fired his weapon.

He doesnโ€™t just think it, heโ€™s behaving like it and everyone is letting him.
So incredibly corrupt. Shout out to everyone who complained endlessly about Hunter but says nothing about this. @RepTimBurchett @MarshaBlackburn @AndyOgles @RepFaison

When Massachusetts passed a "millionaires tax" in 2023, conservatives claimed the rich would flee.

But two years later, they haven't โ€” and MA has collected $5.7B for infrastructure and public education.

A reminder that positive change can still happen at the state level.
๐Ÿ’”
With millions at risk of losing SNAP in the coming days, a reminder: hunger doesn't happen in isolation. When food assistance disappears, families use rent money to eat. Then come evictions and homelessness.

Housing, food, healthcareโ€”it's all connected. Cut one thread and the whole thing unravels.

Iโ€™m good with my taxes subsidizing social welfare for people who canโ€™t afford food.

Iโ€™m enraged with my taxes subsidizing corporate welfare to businesses that wonโ€™t pay a living wage.

Your regular reminder that we desperately need to overturn Citizens United and get big money out of politics.

It is among the worst Supreme Court decisions in history.

It corrupts our political system every day.
