Several food banks have begun issuing statements to communities asking for donations as the need for food assistance has increased and is expected to increase even more in November as the USDA has announced that SNAP benefits will not go out.

This is from a year ago, right before the election. Guess some people didn’t believe him. Wonder if they believe him now?

Aleksandr Dugin's Eurasianist doctrine is that US is confined to Western Hemisphere. Putin gets Portugal to Vladivostok.

Putinist stooge Hegseth has ordered the redeployment of the aircraft carrier Gerald R. Ford as well as warships and attack planes from the coast of Croatia, where the carrier defends Europe, to Latin American waters. This is not about narco-terrorism. This is about abandoning Europe to Putin.

MRIs aren’t a routine test performed during annual physicals unless something is amiss. For that matter, neither is having two “annual” physicals less than 6 months apart. But I’m sure it’s nothing and tfg is the picture of health 🙄

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 84th day out of the last 96.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

With full pay and benefits.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

This is the guy who lied on the stand at a trial in LA, telling the jury he witnessed the defendant assault the ICE officer, when the video showed the ICE officer assault the defendant. The jury took an hour to acquit. He's referred to immigrants as "filth, trash, and scum."

“Walmart was the top employer of SNAP recipients in five states and one of the top four employers in the remaining four states. McDonald’s was among the top five employers of Medicaid enrollees in five of six states and SNAP recipients in eight of nine states.”

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.
With SNAP benefits set to run out in less than a week, this is great info.
