I like to imagine podcast host Toby Ziegler's response to the world.

Budgets reflect our marginal prioritization. We have limited resources, so we fund things at the expense of other things.
Giving nearly $1 trillion to the military while dramatically underfunding housing aid, while leaving kids malnourished, while leaving people uninsured - it's a choice.
Last week, the Massachusetts Senate finalized their version of the FY27 state budget and we want to thank @senrobynkennedy.bsky.social and the 21 cosponsors of an amendment (half the Senate) to increase funding to expand access to SNAP by hiring more DTA case workers to expand access to SNAP.

Recipes should list active time instead of prep time. If I’m chopping in the middle of the recipe that’s still time I can’t do other things!
This is damning and exposes the whole facade of what attacks and cues to SNAP are really about. It’s not about waste, fraud, and abuse. It’s about turning people away so the government can redistribute more money to the ultra wealthy.
I’m proud my son, Elliot completed his 6th Walk for Hunger this weekend and is trying to raise $500, again. Not only that, but he donated from his own allowance.
Please join him in support the important work we’ve been doing at Project Bread!
