Atlanta, we love you. We put out the call that we need emergency financial support from our community, and we've seen an amazing response!
We made a big dent in the shortfall, but we still need additional community support to keep this project going.
We need more donors to commit to $5 a month.

Not sure if this is the case but holy shit was it the case with Jan 6 when EVERYONE agreed it was one of the worst things Ever and then Dems… let millions of people just lose interest in a matter of weeks
Sadly, this is why Democratic leaders needed to act when the iron was hot — to lead, get out on the streets, and mobilize public opinion.
It may now be that their moment has passed and the public has moved on. If so, what a shame; what a lost opportunity.

Sometimes very hard not to feel like the rest of the country has abandoned Minnesota. We STILL have ICE everywhere. Our schools, businesses, and economy are in profound crisis. But without Bovino here throwing tear gas, much of the country seems to not care at all what’s being done to us.

The more I think about it, the more I’m convinced the Democrats have to push their hand immediately. The parallels with the delays and subsequent failures after January 6th are blaring warning signs about what will happen if they don’t go after the issues with ICE and CBP at the root RIGHT NOW.

Really hard to look at this and all the other examples of bravery and kindness from ordinary people in this moment not think also of the tremendous cowardice exhibited over the past year by some of the richest, most well-protected people in business, media and politics

The moment it was crystal clear we were in the worse case scenario, was exactly a year ago when Trump pardoned every single Jan 6 perpetrator, including the ones that beat the crap out of cops and were convicted of seditious conspiracy.

I hate that media reports on public opinion more than facts. Our health care system is in crisis- report on it. People “believe” what their echo chamber is telling them.
Nearly one-quarter of Americans say the country’s health care system is in crisis, with 29 percent citing high costs as the most urgent problem with national health, according to a new Gallup poll.
Nearly 1 in 4 Americans say the U.S. health care system is in crisis
A new Gallup poll found that about eight in 10 Democrats, and 64 percent of Republicans, say the system is in crisis or has “major problems.”

At the beginning of the shutdown Dems were losing the messaging on whose fault it was but the fact that the Trump administration was suing to not fund snap was getting through. It was working.

If you want fewer people fed by SNAP then you should advocate for a higher minimum wage
If you make 130% of the federal poverty level, you qualify for SNAP.
A family of four, making $40,560, qualifies for SNAP benefits meaning thousands of Missouri teachers qualify.
I’m tired of the bullshit. Most of the people who receive snap benefits work.
