@nickgillespie @thehill @TheHillOpinion obvi, their priority is to stick it to poor people, kids and seniors--Head Start, SNAP, Medicare, and Medicaid. If we have to give billions to higher-income folks in NY and CA, at least we'll be still able to throw granny from the nursing home into the street.

Big news: I'm stepping down as editor-in-chief of @baltimorebanner to join The Washington Post as managing editor. This decision has been difficult. I love what we've built here proving local journalism can thrive, and it's been the best job of my life. 🧵 thebaltimorebanner.com/community/kimi…

It is a scandal that so many working people qualify for Medicaid because their wages are abysmal and their employers are not required to provide them with health care coverage. Medicaid is also a giant subsidy to employers big low wage employers like Walmart.

Donald Trump won her district by 2 points last year. This House Democratic freshman won that same district by 7 points. Watch this and you will see how @repkmr connects. Link below to a column I wrote about her.
Congresswoman Kristen McDonald Rivet@repkmr

My husband and I raised 6 kids, and I taught catechism. I spent Fridays delivering meals on wheels. I won’t sit quietly while extremists in Congress invoke the name of Jesus Christ to take food away from hungry kids.
