The fact that the same Taylor Farms products sold at Walmart are packaged under different names and sold at Whole Foods proves that Jeff Bezos is scamming you into thinking you get superior produce a his far more pricey Whole Foods.

And yes, this really happened. Trump as the POTUS went from pathetic to down right scary at this point. Those who support him must think life is a joke. The United States is likely most vulnerable it's been in over 150 years.

Medicaid covers 40% of births & 60% of nursing home residents. Cutting Medicaid will increase infant deaths. Senior deaths & homelessness will increase too. The GOP is counting on you not paying attention. You sure will be when grandma is sleeping on a bench somewhere, or your baby dies. #Pinks

Tarrant County, Texas scheduled a quiet Tuesday vote to close 140 polling places before November. The room filled up instead. Seven hours later a 73-year-old former state rep was being carried out by four deputies, and the plan was dead. www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/republican...

Republicans Counted On An Empty Room. Whoops.

A Texas county tried to erase 140 polling places, Missouri killed the governor’s tax scheme, and Kansas buried Kobach by 24 points

Folks from the Women's March have been arrested at the Capitol for protesting ICE. Shout out to the women who are putting their lives and livelihoods on the line to get their message out: ABOLISH ICE.

This hasn’t gotten much attention, but it should. While everyone was focused on Schedule F, the administration created something even broader. On July 30, a new OPM rule took effect that creates a second way to fire federal employees outside the normal civil service process.
