@LqLana Republicans lie to the people - and some people believe them because they want to turn away and not look at what is really happening to women and children.

[Ted Lieu @tedlieu]

We are facing a looming government shutdown in 9 days. So what is @HouseGOP having us vote on tonight?

—Amendment that “Prohibits funds from being used to produce official documents containing the term ‘latinx’ or ‘latin-x’”.

House Republicans are not serious people.

So, I spoke to people getting food at a food bank and here are some things I learned from those in need:
1. Everyone donates Kraft Mac and Cheese in the box. They can rarely use it because it needs milk and butter which is hard to get from regular food banks.
2. Boxed milk is a treasure, as kids need it for cereal which they also get a lot of.
3. Everyone donates pasta sauce and spaghetti noodles.
4. They cannot eat all the awesome canned veggies and soup unless you put a can opener in too or buy pop tops.
5. Oil is a luxury but needed for Rice a-Roni which they also get a lot of.
6. Spices or salt and pepper would be a real Christmas gift.
7. Tea bags and coffee make them feel like you care.
8. Sugar and flour are treats.
9. They fawn over fresh produce donated by farmers and grocery stores.
10. Seeds are cool in Spring and Summer because growing can be easy for some.
11. They rarely get fresh meat.
12. Tuna and crackers make a good lunch.
13. Hamburger Helper goes nowhere without ground beef.
14. They get lots of peanut butter and jelly but usually not sandwich bread.
15. Butter or margarine is nice too.
16. Eggs are a real commodity.
17. Cake mix and frosting makes it possible to make a child’s birthday cake.
18. Dishwashing detergent is very expensive and is always appreciated.
19. Feminine hygiene products are a luxury and women will cry over that.
20. Everyone loves Stove Top Stuffing.

In all the years I have donated food at the Holidays, I bought what I thought they wanted, but have never asked. I am glad I did. If you are helping a Family this Christmas, maybe this can help you tailor it more. It does for me!

Texas has a 32 billion surplus and instead of funding schools they chose to cut property taxes… now Houston schools has to lay off their librarians at 28 schools and turn their libraries into discipline centers…8th largest school district has no libraries in one of the most underserved districts in the country… hardly seems fair

The Florida Department of Education provided a list of 16 former slaves they say "benefited" from skills they learned in slavery & used to support themselves after being freed.

They were wearing about most of them.

Those who did spend time in slavery did not learn their skills as slaves.

𝗕𝗼𝗼𝗸𝗲𝗿 𝗧. 𝗪𝗮𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘁𝗼𝗻 - did not gain his skills until after he was freed at age 9.

𝗟𝗲𝘄𝗶𝘀 𝗟𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲𝗿 - A museum dedicated to Latimer states he was born to two self-liberated formerly enslaved parents. Self-educated, he worked as an inventor, participating in the development of the telephone, incandescent lighting & other inventions.

𝗝𝗮𝗺𝗲𝘀 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗲𝗻 - The Museum of the American Revolution describes Forten as a Black entrepreneur born to free parents. He served on privateer ships during the Revolutionary War and became a wealthy sailmaker

𝗛𝗲𝗻𝗿𝘆 𝗕𝗹𝗮𝗶𝗿 - https://t.co/RDfuT4YtOx and several other sites state there is no information indicating that Blair was enslaved. He invented a corn planter and a cotton planter, becoming the second Black person to earn a U.S. patent.

𝗣𝗮𝘂𝗹 𝗖𝘂𝗳𝗳𝗲 - the FL Dept of Ed said he was a shoemaker & shipowner born into slavery who escaped to freedom in 1781. According to https://t.co/OuU2LVbYWM, operated by the Westport Historical Society, Cuffe was born in 1759 to an emancipated slave. Having worked on whaling boats starting at age 14, he established a shipping business in Massachusetts.

𝗝𝗼𝗵𝗻 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗶𝘀 - the Dept said he was a fisherman born into slavery. The North Carolina Museum of History states that Chavis was born into a free Black family in North Carolina, fought in the Revolutionary War and became an educator.

“They just threw out a bunch of names to make it seem like something good came of (slavery),” said Andrew Spar, president of the Florida Education Association teachers union. “The reality of it is, the facts don’t back up what they are saying.”

Parents, don't let your kids go to Florida schools if you don't want them to be ignorant laughingstocks.

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

🔥🔥🔥AMAZING: After Marjorie Taylor Greene files Articles of Impeachment against President Biden, she was just notified she may have broken the law herself.

This is OUTSTANDING:

Greene was told “criminal charges” could come from her recent leaking classified information by Democrat John Burrows:

“Congratulations Rep. Greene.

Your salary is now the biggest waste taxpayer money in the United States,” he wrote.

Burrows, who’s running against McCarthy, let her have it.

“You went on Fox News and revealed confidential information about President Biden’s family’s finances that you were given access to inside a SCIF ― a sensitive compartmented information facility,” he stated.

“National security law expert Mark Zaid now says your actions appear to constitute leaking confidential government information.

If you leaked classified information, you should face criminal charges.”

If you can’t understand how this is a crime, you should be investigated yourself and expelled from Congress.”

Boom!

That’s how we need to handle Marjorie Taylor Greene! She needs to be called out on her bullshit.

Do you agree she needs to face CRIMINAL charges if she released classified information herself?

BREAKING: DeSantis' cop recruitment program got caught hiring a man charged with plowing his car into Black Lives Matter protesters.

DeSantis' team offered him over $6K. Now he's a cop near Orlando.🧵👇

Worse, cops they paid to come to FL have since been arrested for murder, battery, and kidnapping.

Many officers had numerous complaints field against them BEFORE they were recruited. These include excessive force... false imprisonment... sexual extortion...

HORRIFIC. Yet the media has barely covered this AT ALL.

But we can't let Teflon Ron get away with this.

Let's get the word out.

More details coming below. 👇

Claims that homeless veterans were pushed out of a Newburgh, New York, hotel to make room for migrants are false, according to two homeless men who told CNN they were part of a group of 15 who were offered money to pose as veterans https://t.co/TCjvkjYuqD

When the @GOP demands spending cuts to raise the debt ceiling (pay our credit card bill) just remember:

1. Trump raised the the debt ceiling 3x without cutting spending.

2. That’s never happened under any Republican POTUS.

3. The deficit increased each year under Trump & has fallen each year under Biden.
