If you’re in a blue state keep those Senate lines ringing. Tell your Senators not to fold. Let republicans pay for their billionaire tax bailout 💰

This is what good journalism looks like. Go talk to the people actually impacted by all the nonsense, rather than just presenting the view from nowhere...
New — While some states have received SNAP benefits for November and USDA is supposedly pushing through all federal payments soon, that doesn’t erase the psychological terror of the last few weeks.
I spoke with 20+ SNAP recipients in 16 states about preparing for a possible future with no food:

Just need everyone to Google the name "Rosalind Franklin" at this moment.
Hey folks, as news of Watson's demise spreads, please don't set aside his weighty legacy of misogyny and racism. He was truly among the worst of us. www.vox.com/2019/1/15/18...
DNA scientist James Watson has a remarkably long history of sexist, racist public comments
“People say it would be terrible if we made all girls pretty,” he said in 2003. “I think it would be great.”

Just took a few minutes to call both of my senators, Chris Van Hollen and Angela Alsobrooks, to urge them not to cave on the shutdown fight and to hold the line. If you have a Dem senator, please take a moment to do the same.

Polar bears (Ursus maritimus) live in a world of ice & snow, so it makes sense that they have *behavioral* adaptations to crossing thin ice, possibly learned from other polar bears.
As climate change causes summer ice to vanish from the Arctic, there are NEW behavioral changes in this species.

Obviously they love framing this as “illegal” while positioning themselves as the rightful protectors who are removing the “criminals.”
The way to fight back is to call it Ethnic Cleansing. Loudly and every time.
