Do people who get their opinions about Democrats from Fox News ever actually listen to one? New episode of The Professional Left — "An Epidemic of Recycled Lies" — asks why millions of Americans keep believing things that just ain't so. www.buzzsprout.com/229/episodes...

Part of the right's war on education, especially the part that appeals to voters and not Douthatian perverts, is pretty explicitly about limiting kids' horizons and trapping them where they are.

Please don't forget this story. They deliberately dropped off Nurul Amin Shah, a blind refugee, in freezing weather miles away from home. Less than a week later, he was dead. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Death of refugee found after being released by Border Patrol determined to be homicide
Erie County, New York, officials said the cause of death was “complications of a perforated ulcer precipitated by hypothermia and dehydration.”

This is what Nicolás Maduro did in Venezuela. Nationalize voting, then clamp down on journalists and appoint only partisan judges. Becoming a dictator one step at a time. 🗽

To those blaming Walz for not mobilizing the Guard, he did that six days ago. I have to say it's disturbing to see people angry at Walz instead of the government agents that just executed a man. As though we should all be experts about what to do when a secret police force invades an American city.

Minneapolis was peaceful before Homeland Security showed up. Their claim of making things safer for Americans is a sick joke. Homeland Security is making it safer for the dictator and his fellow criminals to terrorize and kill people while they steal billions.

AOC: "An ICE officer had violently pushed a woman to the ground and he had come over to help get her up and that is what precipitated this incident that very quickly led to an execution in the streets. What we are seeing here is a momentous pivotal moment for the United States."

Walmart, McDonalds and Amazon are the largest employers of people who require SNAP assistance. The CEOs earned between 18-40 million last year, 1000x their median employee income. They took billions in profits, while their workers relied on SNAP to survive. Wanna fix fraud and abuse? Fix that.

The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse. I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email

Studies show that when families who receive SNAP benefits have an able bodied adult, 89% of the time this person is employed Which indicates many corporations don’t pay workers a living wage-and are thus subsidized by SNAP-yet somehow Republicans never mention this when they cry about “socialism”
