This is meant to stop stores from charging more not less. This is such a perversion of what this rule is meant to do.

The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse.
I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email

The purpose of a system is what it does.

Once you realize that, everything becomes clear.

Until my dying day, I will never understand how our government has allowed these ICE criminals to stay in position and not be charged for deadly, abusive crimes.

The negligence is staggering!

Our government has not protected the people, and certainly have not protected The Constitution.

I notice that Pritzker hasn't been as present in the MSM now that his gatekeepers of the state are bashing people's heads as per usual.

I see that CBS chose not to air this part. It probably explains much of what they did decide to air.

Drug testing people for food assistance is just telling people who have addiction (which is a disease) that they should fuck off and starve to death.

I don't believe in starving people because of health conditions.

1. A new guide has been released by some of the top names in Democratic politics encouraging Dems to act more like Republicans on "identity and cultural issues."

It becomes clear exactly what that means: queer and trans people.

I argue against it in my latest.

New from 404 Media: you can't refuse to be scanned by ICE's new facial recognition app, according to internal DHS document I obtained. Photos captured by the app are stored for 15 years, including U.S. citizens. We've seen officers scanning faces w/ phones on streets

Got me a new tattoo on Monday.

Tattoo of a red star with a hammer and sickle inside it that is made to look like a patch on the left arm of a white man in a green shit sitting in a massage table with a stool in the background.

Welch: "This has nothing to do with the shutdown. The law requires and the funds are available to continue SNAP right now without any interruption. So that is a decision the president is making on his own to allow people to go hungry."

A fall morning in Chicago now: biking down Lawrence through Albany Park, which looks like a relative ghost town compared to its usual foot traffic, watching as street vendors scramble to pack up and flee because ICE just grabbed someone. Folks screaming and whistling at every intersection.

That United States spends months worsening climate change by sending carbon emitting bombs to be dropped from carbon emitting fighter jets in a genocide against Palestine, and then the climate effects are felt first and most by Black people in Jamaica and Haiti.

It's all connected. I hate it.

centrists will tell you to your face that we all need to abandon identity issues, and focus on kitchen table issues instead and yet when a leftist candidate runs a generational campaign based on kitchen table issues, it's the centrists weaponizing identity politics to smear the leftist.

A school called Alpha that relies on AI to teach its students is also surveilling them at home, videotaping young girls in their bedrooms.

This is some seriously sick shit.

www.wired.com/story/ai-tea...

While parents are asked to consent to these surveillance programs, the school’s handbook says that there is “no expectation of privacy” on campus. If parents want to restrict recordings of their children outside of the school, they have to manually opt out of the “anywhere” option—as Jessica Lopez learned midway through her older daughter’s second year at Alpha. The girl says she remembers sitting on her bed one night working on schoolwork when she received a notification that she’d been flagged for an anti-pattern. She says Alpha’s system sent a video of her in her pajamas, taken from the computer’s webcam, that showed her talking to her younger sister.
