In the face of this cruel government shutdown, we’re taking another significant step to protect Maryland families and children:

I’ve signed an executive order releasing $62 million to help Marylanders who rely on SNAP benefits put food on the table.

Grijalva: I do think that Speaker Johnson misplayed his hand.

There are people all over this nation who were out there with signs that said, “Swear her in.” They wouldn’t have even known about me otherwise.

Thank you for highlighting how corrupt the system you’re protecting really is.

Techbro surprised when autistic and/disabled people do not fawn over his neurotechnology claiming to help identify "pathologies such as autism" seems to be a recurring thing; but also speaks to a deep rooted ableism in the way tech is being taught, understood and enacted in relation to disability

The president of the United States thinks asylum-seekers come from mental asylums.

He says it in almost every interview where the topic of migration comes up.

How is this not 25th Amendment territory? How is he not an embarrassment to this entire country?

Trump still has not followed a court order to release SNAP funds for millions of people.

Meanwhile, he hosted a "Great Gatsby" themed party at Mar-a-Lago this weekend.

And he posted seven times about renovating a White House bathroom with marble and gold.

Priorities.

Mike Johnson lies shamelessly: "The president is desperate for SNAP benefits to flow to the American citizens who desperately rely on it ... the SNAP situation has legal impediments."

Exactly. Show him his post first. Put it up on a screen. Then ask him virtually any question about any word, phrase, or sentence in it.

They’re counting on you to sit this one out. Don’t give them what they want.

Get loud with your ballot. Drop it off today or hit the polls tomorrow ASAP.

Oregonians are seeing price increases of hundreds, and even thousands, of dollars to their healthcare costs because of Republicans' trash budget.

That's unacceptable.

"No one is above the law" is a hollow promise, especially when considering the President, the January 6th insurrectionists, Kash Patel, and the string of wealthy, influential figures who seem to operate with legal immunity.

Trump's corruption is so large it's in the "it's a statistic" territory, and crypto is a great way to do corruption in a way that ordinary people and even most pundits and journalists don't greatly understand.

Hakeem Jeffries just accused the Trump administration and Mike Johnson of running a pedophile protection program. This is incredible.
