Oregon Attorney General Dan Rayfield @agdanrayfield.bsky.social · 1d

This is the first time in our history that a president has used food benefits as a political tool.

In Oregon, 450,000 families receive SNAP benefits.

We filed a lawsuit to release these funds - because no one should go hungry because the government refuses to follow the law.

The majority of SNAP recipients are children, elderly, or disabled people. The majority of working age non-disabled people on SNAP are employed or were employed in the previous year, or become employed the following year. Of those who do work, the largest proportion work in education and healthcare.

The President wants to use the military to crack down on Americans who are exercising their 1st Amendment rights to oppose him. I can’t think of a better reason to insist on exercising those rights.

Amazon just announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year.

UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year.

Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

this month, the agency had a 55-page memo on its website detailing how it might use the reserve for SNAP in the event that funding lapsed, per requirements set by the White House’s Office of Management and Budget. …But the plan has now mysteriously disappeared from the USDA site.

Spotify is running recruitment ads for ICE.

A platform built to connect creators and listeners is helping an authoritarian regime build up its secret police force.

But we’re not going to idly accept that. We’re going to make Spotify listen: indivisible.org/cancel-spoti... #CancelSpotify

Arizona police agencies are largely rejecting an ICE program that lets officers act as deportation agents, citing the experience of the state’s largest sheriff’s office where the program ended after a federal judge found civil rights violations.

Arizona Police Agencies Were Once at the Forefront of Local Immigration Enforcement. Now Most Are Avoiding It.

In January, the Trump administration launched a national recruitment campaign to deploy local officers as deportation agents. It has added more than 900 agencies, but only four in Arizona have signed ...

Within the Western Hemisphere, Mr. Trump is beginning to act like Mr. Netanyahu in the Middle East or Mr. Putin within the former Soviet Union — a right-wing leader claiming a sphere of influence where he is free to act as he chooses.

... the kind of peace Mr. Trump keeps touting. His is a world in which autocratic leaders make deals over the heads of the people, extrajudicial force is legitimized, conflicts simmer so long as they are kept off screens and corruption intermingles with diplomacy.
