CRUELTY: the Trump Regime CUTS OFF FOOD STAMPS Starting November 1!

✨ Big news: we just opened POWER LAB: A Seven Week Program for Emerging Organizers to Overcome Outrage and Build Community Action for registration! This guided 7-week program helps you turn struggle into strategy, gather your people, and start making a real difference. Learn more here: https://gaialeadershipproject.com/power-lab Elizabeth unpacks the acting SNAP director's late-night letter warning of a Nov 1 funding halt, situates it in shutdown gamesmanship, and lays out what it means for families already on the brink—alongside concrete steps you can take today (donate to local food banks; support neighbors). She also explains the legal reality on seating GVA and why Speaker Mike Johnson's stall is unprecedented, plus the Senate's defense-only maneuver to shift blame for unpaid military families. On the Voting Rights Act case, she outlines what to watch at the state level while we await a ruling and how turnout plus voter-protection organizing can counter suppression. Elizabeth then addresses reported grand jury movement around John Bolton as part of a broader trend of weaponized prosecutions—and why we must oppose persecution even of political adversaries. Closing with a candid talk on "news as entertainment," she offers a sanity-preserving filter: follow sources that lead to action, not adrenalized despair.
