Why would any decent Democrat choose to vote against these cuts?

At the risk of sounding victim blaming

Why the he'll didn't Gwenith Paltrow or Angelina Jolie do anything to help Harvey Weinstein 's other victims? These women became powerful in Holllywood and never lifted a finger to out this pervert. WHY? WHY? Women needed their help ans they did nothing after they became powerful.

People, don't fall for divisive posts.

The last thing we need is division in the Democratic party. Trump and the GOP agenda are the enemy, not Bernie or Hillary.

Would y'all please stop fighting about the last primaries

Mistakes were made on both sides. We have bigger fish to fry than all this bullshit infighting. It's just what the republicans want us to do. Let it go!

Antifa are on the ground in Texas helping relief efforts

When Hurricane Harvey struck Southeast Texas this weekend, bringing torrential rain and severe flooding, scott crow (name intentionally in lower case) knew he had to get to Houston to help evacuate friends. He plans to return to contribute where he can provide relief to the thousands of people who have been displaced by the storm.

This is nothing new for crow.

In the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, he and others, like Malik Rahim and Sharon Johnson, set up a system of providing food, water, supplies and basic medical aid to those in vulnerable New Orleans neighborhoods. The organization, dubbed Common Ground Collective, grew to include several health clinics and helped displaced residents move back into their neighborhoods where infrastructure had failed.

But crow and hundreds of first responders in New Orleans in Houston just like him don’t come from a government or non-profit background.

They’re anarchists.

Lyle Jeffs, fugitive polygamist, captured in South Dakota after almost a year on the run

Source: The Salt Lake Tribune

Lyle Jeffs, who is among 11 members of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints indicted in what prosecutors call a conspiracy to defraud the food stamp program, was captured late Tuesday in South Dakota.

Few details of the capture immediately provided. An online log at the Minnehaha County, S.D., jail lists Jeffs as an inmate. He is being held without bond.

The FBI Field Office in Salt Lake City sent a tweet Wednesday morning saying Jeffs was arrested in South Dakota about 8:30 p.m. Tuesday. The FLDS has a compound in South Dakota, though it is on the opposite side of the state — almost 400 miles away from where Jeffs was booked into jail.

Anyone else order from Hello Fresh or other box meals?

I have an introductory order coming tomorrow and am very excited. Am I deluding myself that this box will contain fresh and yummy ingredients? Anyone else have this or Blue Apron or other meal services?
