Sir why has the Pardon Attorney not posted all of the 1/6 except the 10? Big time pardons! Tarrio, Rhodes, pB and Oath Keepers.
All other Pardons are publicly available! Since the crimes do not clear the Record the Pardons are to be published!
I have asked the Pardon Attorney in an email.

How exactly are you fighting? When will you hold a townhall back here in Los Angeles?

Meanwhile Republicans are wasting time and money arguing about a bill to change the name of some water. Jump on this Dems! This is stupidity and out of touch. They are fighting for him, not you!

He voted to confirm the person doing the slashing so…

This strategy of picking and choosing what to fight tooth and nail doesn’t work when we have no unified party.

Programs of government assistance are great, but the core problem remains wage inequality.

Thank you Sen Schiff. Continue to support the people and your family as well. We need more folks like you sir.

I became disabled a year and a half ago and I get $76 a month. That's like one and half bags of groceries. I'm basically surviving on ramen noodles right now.

Thank you Sen Schiff.

ravenmachado.bsky.social•23 days ago

NO ONE in this country should have food insecurity! Should NEVER have to worry about feeding their children, or worry where their next meal is coming from! Sooo much money, so little compassion for our fellow human beings. It’s sickening! There’s not enough money in this world to save your souls.

badjohnbrown.bsky.social•22 days ago

You failed us so badly when you voted to confirm Trump's unfit nominees - including Ag Secretary. Start fighting or resign.

laserjockaz.bsky.social•22 days ago

Imagine that…richest country being led by billionaires all working so hard to take the basic of assistance to the least fortunate of it’s citizens.

mrspop.bsky.social•23 days ago

Where is the money coming from to pay Babbitt family? Where did the money come from to pay El Salvador? Where did the money come from for a fkn military parade?

Is he going to bankrupt the US next?

Did you ever fight against the fraud with snap? My druggie brother in law sold his benefits for drugs! Wake up lying Schiffy

You need to adress the root issues that make people rely on those programs. Raise the minimum wage, fix labor laws, healtcare for all, etc.

equality-for-all.bsky.social•21 days ago

Infrequently mentioned is the tariff effect on medications/components-there are already shortages of some meds. This is going to get much worse very quickly!
Order your med refills early-if you aren't able to get them filled-call your Dr- may have to change some prescriptions to ones still in stock

blueskyfire.bsky.social•22 days ago

People are going to die over this.

Cutting this program may start a civil war.

Veterans don’t like this kind of bullshit.

So KNUCKLE UP, put your head down and punch back.

40 million people is a force that could crush Washington and every person in it.

americanrebels.bsky.social•23 days ago

Like protecting SS that is now being run by someone that’s going to strip and possibly dismantle it. To save America and what it stands for will take the republican Cowards to stand up for Americans and the constitution or for the people to rise and declare war…

Senator that’s wonderful, but what about our national security and how horribly it’s been compromised? How unsafe do we have to become to address that?
Don’t you feel the United States has been compromised too much at this point?
What about our safety?

So long as he gets his hundred-million-dollar parade.

dpoinfella.bsky.social•23 days ago

Your concerns are understated. It may be 40MM now, but just wait until millions lose their jobs because of Trump's demented tariff scheme. All those folks are going to be hurting for a way to feed themselves and their families, not to mention to find a way to go to the doctor.

thetakappa16.bsky.social•22 days ago

No economic hardship is so important anymore as the ongoing coup d'etat towards authoritarian rule. This is a dictatorship except for the declaration of martial law. The solution will not emerge from the townhalls of Democratic lawmakers, but from a counter coup coordinated by Obama-Milley.

bicchick.bsky.social•22 days ago

Schiff’s whining about Trump’s SNAP cuts, acting like he’s saving the poor. 🙄 Same guy who backed endless wars over feeding CA’s hungry. Watermelon Head’s tears won’t fix his hypocrisy—Trump’s just exposing it! 🍉 #SchiffSobStory #SNAP

mplsmndani.bsky.social•23 days ago

People who have never gone a day without food, never had to try to function at work or school while hungry, are making these cuts.

d1puck1t.bsky.social•21 days ago

"not if I can help it!" says man that helped Trump.
