Twitter accounts are based in Russia. BlueSky accounts are based in homes with, frankly, too many books, plants, obsolete cables, and pieces of rustic pottery, that could do with a bit of a tidying up, to be honest.

Comment period ends Dec. 1: Stop Trump Admin’s H2A wage changes that could drastically reduce wages and jobs for US workers.

Sign on today and say “NO” to slashing wages for farm workers.

Great news that the Senate has passed the bill forcing the DOJ to release its Epstein file. Now Bondi must comply. But our work cannot stop there. We need to force the Treasury to release the Epstein bank records too. I have a bill to make that happen. FOLLOW THE MONEY.

Swalwell: Kristi Noem and Tom Homan, you should familiarize yourselves with this room. Get to know that witness chair — you’re going to be parked in it for a long time. Accountability is coming.

Seattle Tacoma area too! It's BRIGHT pink at my house.
Cats think I've gone mad.

It’s even visible through a thin veil of high cloud and over the bright city lights!

Not bad from using an iPhone in the suburbs. Barely visible glow with the naked eye though.

Donald Trump sent more money to bail out Argentina than it would have cost to extend the ACA tax credits for just 1 year.

I don't plan to let anyone forget it.

It is breathtaking that the Trump Administration has fought so hard to keep food from hungry families.

However, here in Washington state, we've caught up on the SNAP benefits that were delayed due to the shutdown. We're now delivering full benefits.

LITERALLY HOURS. THEY COULD HAVE WAITED HOURS.
BREAKING

The 1st Circuit REJECTS Trump DOJ's request to pause a judge's order to pay up Nov's SNAP funds to the states.

The SCOTUS stay will expire within 48 hours absent further action from the justices, per its terms.

The Trump Administration has demanded that states halt any SNAP payments to beneficiaries. They have referred to these payments as "unauthorized." The USDA has threatened to end federal funding for any states who fail to comply.

Every new day feels like we are waking up in the Sunken Place.

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:
The voices of SNAP
Recipients have become political pawns. They explained, in their own words, what Trump withholding funds has been like.
