"In a variety of ways, the Trump administration and the movement the president leads have become explicitly white supremacist, as much as is possible without saying the word 'white.' They may still be workshopping the language they use, but the message is clear:"

"America, in their view, ought to be a country of, by, and for white people. In the service of that goal, they are essentially trying to turn back the clock — both legally and culturally — to before the civil rights movement."

Waldman shares some social media postings from Department of Homeland Security and Department of Labor (below).

"The very AI tools that are adding to today’s employment problems are being used by the Trump administration to chip away at reality, one white-supremacy meme and one fascistic propaganda video at a time."

Scoop: the #Democrats have been spewing this kind of bullshit for the last 50+ years, maybe longer. It boils down to, "Democrats need to be more like #Republicans."

Don't fall for it!

Answer: Because most #doctors who see patients all day know nothing about #COVID & even less about #longCOVID. They are ~17 years behind #scientists. If they were at all familiar with the #science they'd be wearing #respirators.

Trump administration won’t use contingency fund to pay November food stamp benefits | CNN Politics

The US Department of Agriculture says it will not tap into its $6 billion contingency fund to cover food stamp benefits next month, according to an agency memo obtained by CNN. That means that roughly 42 million Americans will not receive critical food assistance from the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP, in November, unless the agency shifts its position.
