SNAP has existed for 60 years. Benefits have gone out every single month over those six decades, including during government shutdowns. Until now.

Make no mistake: The money is available to fund SNAP during this shutdown. Trump is making a choice to withhold it.

Don’t forget this.

I started Democracy Docket in 2020 to be fiercely independent and proudly pro-democracy. It has no corporate overlords, no venture capital investors, and no billionaires pulling the strings.

Instead, Democracy Docket relies on you. I wouldn’t have it any other way.

“They came into the building understanding it was a daycare. They did not have a warrant. It is a violation of our rights. It is a violation of these children’s rights. They are terrorizing our community.”

Trump’s ICE goons raided a damn daycare.

Mamdani: "My message to ICE agents & to everyone across this city is that everyone will be held to the same standard of the law. If you violate it, you must be held accountable. There is sadly a sense growing that certain people are allowed to violate that law, whether they be POTUS or ICE agents."

Yesterday we began to take back our power

Victories in Virginia, New Jersey, California and the NYC Mayoral election give us hope

But we MUST stay engaged

Too many lives are at stake

While ICE still roams the streets every day, terrorizing people

We can never relent

The wealth of the 10 richest Americans surged $698B in the past year.

Trump’s tax handouts to billionaires and cuts to health care will only make inequality worse.

We need an economy that works for everyone – not one that works for the 1% and hangs everyone else out to dry.

Republicans are throwing a tantrum because Californians stood up to Donald Trump's election-rigging scheme.

Cry harder.

Mike Johnson: “I'll make a comment about the tragedy in California last night…It's just a blatant example of Gavin Newsom's immoral leadership and the fact that they will do anything to try to rig the system to win.”

It's no longer left versus right or even Democrat versus Republican.

It’s now democracy versus oligarchy. Freedom versus dictatorship. Right versus wrong.

Millions are awakening to this new reality — and they're speaking up.

The sleeping giant of America is roaring.

I just flew round trip through two major cities (hubs)- all planes full, and absolutely not one delay or issue. I anticipated issues but I saw zero chaos- just sayin’. 🤷‍♀️

Socialist does not mean Communist! I have an uncle (from NYC) who said he “didn’t want a communist running the city.” I emphatically reminded him that Democratic Socialist countries are the most successful on earth. Best education rates, happiest citizens, highest GDP’s, etc etc.

4 out of 5 people who rely on the ACA tax credits live in states that Trump won.

And over 80 percent of the people who will end up uninsured if these expire are in Trump states!

This is a MAGA health care hike, yet Trump won't lift a finger to save your health care.

Oh, you simple-minded, wheezing gargoyle . . . you were very much on the ballot. You are blamed for the shutdown. You are blamed from SNAP shutting down. You are blamed for a bad economy. And numerous people interviewed last night mentioned that seeing the East Wing destroyed motivated them to vote.
