Federal judge orders Trump administration to fully fund SNAP benefits in November A federal judge in Rhode Island has ordered the Trump administration to find the money to fully fund SNAP benefits for November.

“Congress is about to impose massive harm on tens of millions of Americans,” @jonathanbchait.bsky.social writes, “in order to benefit a handful of other Americans who least need the help. The bill almost seems designed to generate a political backlash”:

Adrian Martinez tried to defend a man ICE was harassing. Video shows six agents swarming him. He struggles but doesn’t lay hands on them. They take him to the ground & shove him into a CBP vehicle.

Abuse of power. Keep recording. Don’t stop.

Kristi Noem thinks her lie about Sen. Padilla not identifying himself is a real own when, in fact, her supposed inability to recognize a US Senator--who is the chair of the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Immigration, Citizenship & Border Safety--makes her goons' thuggery even more disgraceful.

American Panopticon The Trump administration is pooling data on Americans. Experts fear what comes next.

Trump and DOGE are not just undoing decades of privacy measures: They appear to be ignoring that they were ever written.

Right now Speaker Mike Johnson is calling republicans trying to kill a bill to give new moms in congress a leave without having to miss votes. Instead, he should be calling us back to put Trump in check and stop this assault on our economy & retirement. We must oppose these tariffs!

The Theft, Harm, and Presidential Grift of Privatizing the National Weather Service  Our investment in National Weather Service is repaid many times over in economic benefit.

"The country has invested in, and innovated through, this scientific public service for over a century, not for selling it to the highest bidder, but for the common good. Dismantling NOAA and the National Weather Service is a presidential grift that we must oppose."
