Nutrition assistance is NOT corrupt. Food stamps kept my family fed when my mom had to look for work after my dad got sick with MS.
The Trump administration wants kids, seniors, and veterans to go hungry. They are REFUSING to use emergency funds to keep SNAP benefits going.
It just keeps getting more insane.
Trump apparently tried to send a DM to Pam Bondi essentially telling her that his enemies need to be prosecuted. Instead he posted it on Truth Social, and it’s now been deleted.
Stranded at the airport? Don’t expect to get your money back.
President Trump just ended rules requiring airlines to compensate passengers for delays/cancellations they cause.
Don't blame your gate agents - blame President Trump.

As a driver and a cyclist I would like to see more protected bike lanes especially in the Bronx. More people should cycle as a daily activities as a way to reduce our health disparities.
Today is when 90 trade deals in the 90-day pause on Trump’s higher “Liberation Day” tariffs are due. Do deals deliver on Trump promises to boost US manufacturing & balance trade? Or who gains?
@RethinkTrade built this new Trump Trade Deal Evaluator tool so everyone can judge 1/
"We updated Grok to make it less woke."
"Did you make it 'less woke' or did you make it seethingly hate Jews?"
"It's a good model, sir."
(They made it seethingly hate Jews.)
Six months into congestion pricing: Traffic is down and business is up.
But that’s not all, the revenue generated by the program is already funding critical transit upgrades that will benefit millions of New Yorkers.
The idea of swimmable rivers should be a North Star goal guiding a long-term effort to clean up our waterways, manage stormwater, and create lots of new places for New Yorkers to swim.
Congestion pricing by the #’s 6 months in:
* 67k fewer drivers entering the zone daily
* Delays in Holland tunnel down 65%
* Traffic deaths down 32% so far in 2025
* $500m projected this year for MTA capital improvements
* Broadway theater attendance up 12%
* Subway ridership up 7%
* Bus ridership up 12%
* LIRR ridership up 8%
So yes this program is a SUCCESS.
New York’s seven GOP members of Congress have the power to stop the Big, Ugly Bill and keep 1.5 million New Yorkers from losing their health coverage.
Will they stand with their constituents, or will they turn their back on them?
The GOP's work requirements apply to people in their sixties, and it's true that 62-year-olds use medical care at a reasonably high rate. Of course Scalise didn't say they're booting 62-year-olds off insurance, because that sounds nuts. But it's exactly what they're doing.
The GOP megabill includes a tax credit for metallurgical coal, reports @MattZeitlin. No one knows why.
"Cheaper metallurgical coal would do nothing for American energy dominance, but it would help other countries pump up their production of steel." ⬇️

David Huerta is a US citizen, a labor leader, and an upstanding member of the Los Angeles community.
There is no reason that he should be in detention right now.
