"I call myself a democratic socialist, in many ways inspired by the words of Dr. King from decades ago. ‘Call it democracy, or call it democratic socialism, there has to be a better distribution of wealth for all of God’s children in this country.’” ~Mayor #Mamdani of #NYC

About $5.5 BILLION in #SNAP contingency funds are just sitting there; the demented #feloninchief is preventing the money from being released. Americans, millions in red states, will go hungry in November. Seriously, when are people going to rise up???

Bill Maher is gross. Big time Islamophobe and a misogynist, too. So of course has things in common with #AndrewCuomo.

As SNAP benefits are cut, this should be something we demand of state governors to do with their states national guard.

Food banks & other forms of community aid will feel the stress caused by these cuts. There will undoubtedly be understaffing and shortages, this is one way we can prepare for this
