The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person. The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person. People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives. And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

This is really good to see: Miki Sherrill just put out a statement sharply criticizing the Senate Dems' pending cave in the government shutdown, ripping it as "malpractice" and a betrayal of the people who are "counting on us to fight for them." Sherrill knows what drove her victory. Wake up, Dems.

Funny how Bill Clinton’s Telecommunications Act of 1996 institutionalized the process of media ownership consolidation. Thirty years later the job’s nearly done. ✅

oligarchs are destroying what's left of U.S. journalism, replacing it with corporate-friendly infotainment and right wing propaganda, and blowing smoke up your ass about how they're restoring trust in journalism and protecting "diversity of viewpoints from across the ideological spectrum."
Chairman Carr issued the following statement after the FCC rubber stamps the CBS/Skydance merger:

“Americans no longer trust the legacy national news media to report fully, accurately, and fairly. It is time for a change. That is why I welcome Skydance’s commitment to make significant changes at the once storied CBS broadcast network. In particular, Skydance has made written commitments to ensure that the new company’s programming embodies a diversity of viewpoints from across the political and ideological spectrum. Skydance will also adopt measures that can root out the bias that has undermined trust in the national news media. These commitments, if implemented, would enable CBS to operate in the public interest and focus on fair, unbiased, and fact-based coverage. Doing so
would begin the process of earning back Americans’ trust. Today’s decision also marks another step
forward in the FCC’s efforts to eliminate invidious forms of DEI discrimination. And Skydance’s
commitment to enhancing local news and reporting—coverage valued by the public—will also inure
to the benefit of the American people.”
