Governor Josh Shapiro signed a bill overnight adding an additional $5 million in funds to food banks in the area to help feed those without the necessary assistance they should be getting from the federal government.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

Read that back.

When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

So if Trump can't remember who he pardoned, does that make the pardon invalid?

#TCMParty All The President's Men is airing and I am torn between loving every dry, irascible moment of Jason Robards as Ben Bradlee, marvelling at the non-confirmation confirmations, and mourning the loss of a great newspaper in our present era.

Don’t take it from me, listen to Snopes! Speaker Johnson signed a bill to cut $186 billion from SNAP. And again, it’s HIS party that won’t help millions of Americans put food on the table this month.
House Speaker Mike Johnson signed bill cutting $186B from SNAP in July 2025
Users shared this true claim amid uncertainty regarding whether Americans would receive federal food benefits during the 2025 government shutdown.

“60 Minutes paid me a lot of money”

In an edited-out part of the Trump interview Trump brags about extorting CBS for millions for… editing out a part of Kamala’s interview.

(He also makes it clear new CBS chief Bari Weiss is in his pocket) #RIPCBS

If ICE agents begins harassing voters on the way to vote on Tuesday, we need local prosecutors to charge the ICE officers with state law crimes. We need to send a message for 2026 that they will be swiftly arrested.

71.5% of ICE detainees have no criminal convictions, according to government data.

Don’t fall for Trump’s lies about targeting the “worst of the worst.”

As Trump's regime terrorizes communities to fill up detention centers, remember that some of his biggest donors are private prison corporations.

Speaker Johnson: Federal employees aren’t being paid. Nutrition cuts may cause children to go hungry. Millions are seeing their health premiums soar.

End the 6 week paid vacation you’ve taken. Join your Democratic colleagues and negotiate an end to this shutdown.

America… where they will force you to give birth and then blame you if you struggle financially.

Where they will ban abortions but also cut funding for infant formula and SNAP funds that feed kids.

States and utilities make sweetheart deals with AI data centers and crypto mining centers for lower taxes and discount on utilities. The states raise tax rates for working people and utilities raise their costs to make up for any loss in revenue.

The world's 10 richest people (nearly all from the U.S.) are collectively $500 billion richer this year thanks to growth in stocks tied to AI.

Meanwhile, data centers are sucking up communities’ water and electricity.

AI is making the rich even richer while everyone else pays the price.

What are the local police doing about this? If he goes to a hospital to get treatment doctors are supposed to file a report with police on gunshot wounds. Will the police investigate?
