Trump Tariffs cut US farm income by 34 to 44 billion. Trump approved a 12 billon Farm hand out. But being talked about is Congress cut SNAP benefits by 128 billion. Understand- SNAP is funded through the AG bill because the money goes to farmers, it just happens to feed poor people along the way.

If you’re looking for something to do, start working on overturning citizens united in your state. States control the power corporations have. Take their political power away with a ballot initiative. Here’s how: open.substack.com/pub/robertre...

"Rafa" says it was a bit over 40° and damp and foggy when he began pruning grapevines this morning in Madera CA. "I earn minimum wage. This cold damp weather makes our bones ache, but I'm grateful for the work, since there is very little work at this time of year." #WeFeedYou

In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.
