Did you read that? Almost 250,000 children in Florida lost food assistance in the last year because Republicans decided to give tax breaks to billionaires But they're out there campaigning that they're for the American people

Katie Bergh@katiebergh.bsky.social · 3d ago

In the year after the Republican reconciliation law enacted the deepest SNAP cuts in history, SNAP participation in Florida fell by 22%. About 247,000 of the more than 647,000 Floridians who lost food assistance between July 2025 & July 2026 were children. www.jacksonville.com/story/news/l...

Having watched these for more than a year now, I can tell you the young people almost always look back bsky.app/profile/gill...

Here's a young man, appears to be a teenager, shackled at the wrists and ankles, stopping on the stairs to give Seattle a long last look. If you watch the feed, you see that last look a lot.

When humans are this stupid, it's always the children who suffer. I don't care how many times or ways you explain it to me, this religion is nothing but child abuse.

It’s simply unimaginable that CDC Director Dr. Erica Schwartz has just bowed to RFK Jr. and approved funding for an utterly unethical clinical trial that will withhold the birth dose of HepB vaccine in Guinea Bissau. It is to be conducted by researchers accused of academic misconduct.

CDC Is Moving Forward With a Previously Shelved Controversial Hepatitis B Vaccine Study

“It’s a wholly unethical trial, and it shouldn’t be allowed,” says Dr. Paul Offit of Guinea-Bissau study

I am in Cap Haitien interviewing people deported from the United States. I have been doing this kind of work for almost a decade and it literally does not get more dire than this. People have lost everything they built in the U.S. and are terrified and have no place to go or way to live.

7 shots fired into an SUV with a 5-year-old child in the back seat as the vehicle was moving away. Markwayne Mullin claims the driver “weaponized” his vehicle. Bullshit! “Weaponized vehicle” has become ICE’s go-to excuse for shooting folks. Where’s the evidence? It’s not in this new footage.

Holy shit FOUR members of the ethics committee in Denmark that gave the green light to allow the widely-condemned RFK Jr-funded trial to proceed in Guinea-Bissau have now resigned in protest This quote is 🔥 Great reporting by @melodyschreiber.com www.theguardian.com/society/2026...

RFK Jr is funding a grotesquely unethical study on newborn babies in Guinea-Bissau; ethicists, pediatricians, clinical trial experts, & infectious disease experts are calling this horrific trial The New Tuskegee. It is unethical to withhold a life saving intervention from half of newborns FFS.

Trump wants the US to fund Putin’s evil regime.

One or more human beings are responsible for the code they wrote, and those are the people who should be held accountable. These programs are not acting “on their own”

(NYT) - Artificial intelligence agents created by Anthropic, acting on their own, tried to gain access to a range of government websites, filled out visa applications on the State Department’s website and sent a fake homicide tip to Philadelphia’s Police Department. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/09/t...

So let's get this straight: Russia just murdered over 65 people in Ukraine in less than 48 hours. Crushed a building on top of sleeping families to celebrate Putin's birthday. And today, the U.S. announces that they are lifting sanctions on Russian diesel and planning to buy some,

The United States is now officially allied with Vladimir Putin and Russia. We will fund Russia’s genocidal war machine in exchange for Putin helping Trump and the Republican Party in the midterms. One of the most shameful and disgusting days in the history of this Republic.

“We are enforcing the nation’s laws. Why is that controversial?” The Fugitive Slave Act. The Three-Fifths Compromise. The Nuremberg Laws. Dred Scott. The Indian Removal Act. The Law for Protection of German Blood. Anti-miscegenation laws. The Defense of Marriage Act. The Reichstag Fire Decree.

Mullin began the press conference by saying "We are enforcing this nation's laws. Why is it controversial? Why would that be controversial?" As if all of human history doesn't show that laws and their enforcement can be very controversial (e.g., the 1765 Stamp Act and its impact on U.S. history).

A barbaric idea, beneath our dignity as a country. Push back on this.

Man, it's a good thing Jared Polis pardoned this woman. She has absolutely learned her lesson.

People watching the student protests in France and fixating on the rioting instead of asking why the protests are happening are like gnats mesmerised by a light bulb. The students’ core demands are incredibly basic. That’s what should be amplified, addressed and resolved.

RFK Jr. wants fewer vaccines on the federal schedule. For 35 million kids on Medicaid or CHIP, that can mean vaccines kids need are no longer guaranteed or available. Trump & corrupt Republicans are putting children at risk for an anti-vax agenda. #RepublicanHealthcareCrisis

Something unprecedented happened during my visit to the Gulf. For the first time in 20 years in Congress, I was denied entry to U.S. military facilities and even meetings with military leaders. An order from Hegseth - that applies to both parties - to hide the cost of the war.
