Dr. Eddie,

I think that federal judge John McConnell of Rhode Island just ruled that the Snap benefits must be paid!! Prayer and hope are so powerful!

Weaponizing hunger is really an act of genocide. (The babies program is WIC.) Court orders from MA & RI said use the saved funds to pay for SNAP. Waiting to see if he'll appeal. (He always does.) Dire times. Lying Republican party.

Palestinians still being shot dead, missiles fall upon them, drones. The day of the "signing", Israel sent missiles into them and have not really stopped. I have photos of the dead.

Are you hooked up to Rev. Barber? The Moral Majority? You'd find a bunch of good folks.

"Treason is a strong word but not too strong, rather too weak, to characterize the situation in which the Senate (and the House) is the eager, resourceful, indefatigable agent of interests hostile to the American people as any invading army could be, and vastly more dangerous; interests that manipulate the prosperity produced by all, so that it heaps up riches for the few."

Thank you, Dr. Glaude, for this astute commentary on the grevious behavior of the federal government, which is using its power to inflict pain and anguish on some of the most vulnerable people in our country. One thing I have been struggling with is what can everyday Americans who are not elected govermenr officials do to collectively fight against and shift the power dynamics in this political landscape. It’s hard to determine, beyond signing petitions, calling our congressional representatives, and sharing information via social media what power levels we have day to day to help shift the tide of bad faith politics and policies. Any recommendations you have would be greatly valued.

I say fuck all the time about these people only because there isn’t a worse word to describe them.

The f word was legitimately used. I always listen because you are a calm voice and speak to people’s hearts. Thank you.

I’m lucky to have a small and connected group that’s working on buying pallets of food for the local food bank. We’ll be asking businesses and individuals for cash donations. People power is real.

I hope your mom is doing okay.
