What did people do before SNAP?”

They died.

Healthcare, vaccines, disability support, education & food assistance are vital to our survival.

They’re why the average lifespan isn’t 35 anymore

The mark of a good & decent society is whether it sees the value in helping others.

Can someone please ask him how the GOP changed the 60 vote threshold twice in the last two months to approve 150+ trump appointees in one go? Cuz they are in charge and can change the rules to open the government. And they know it. They WANT the shutdown.

Mike Johnson: "Democrats are required to open the government. They keep saying, 'Republicans are in charge of government.' We aren't!"

Millions of Americans are already learning that their health insurance costs for 2026 are going way up.

I want to hear from you so we can make this impossible for the GOP to ignore the consequences of their policies.

If your premiums are going up, reply below and please share your story.

We used to pay around $20-$26K per year for private insurance for a family of 4. Haven’t had it since 2019. I pay $100 a month to see a primary care physician and my RXs are less than $225. I hope this is the beginning of the end of privatized healthcare in the godforsaken country.

Refusing to be numb is a radical act.

Caring about the earth while they drill it.

Caring about strangers while they deport them.

Caring about truth while they erase it.

You’re not ‘too sensitive.’ Don’t let them make you be ashamed of your empathy and humanity. You’re still human. Stay that way.

Approximately 1/3 of those with jobs at Amazon are receiving SNAP benefits-and half suffer from food insecurity

Now billionaire Jeff Bezos is laying off 30,000 of them

How much longer will America continue to subsidize Bezos-and let him accumulate even greater wealth by sucking dry US workers

Why don’t we just take the president at his word instead of excusing his ramblings?

Like you guys, he wants a third term. You know. Like Putin or Kagame.

It’s fundamentally anti-American. Can we maybe start there instead of shrugging it off with “lol that guy…”

TWO CAN PLAY THAT GAME: The official Massachusetts SNAP website now warns that Trump is “choosing not to issue November SNAP benefits that help you and many families put food on the table.” It also warns of cuts due to “Congressional Republicans and President Trump” in the “One Big Beautiful Bill.”

There are the "feed 100 in case 1 of them would otherwise starve" people.

And there are the "Starve 100 in case 1 of them doesn't actually deserve their food" people.

Far too many who claim to follow Jesus fall into the second camp.

To all those “Let them go without food for a month, maybe they’ll get a job” people: Most SNAP recipients have jobs. Exploitative jobs that keep them living just below the poverty line. — Should they starve to death? And then what?

He's taking away healthcare for millions. He gets a thrill out of killing people on the open seas. He wants you to hate. Dwell on that – he wants you to hate. He's demanding our justice department pay him $230,000,000. He thinks he owns the country.

He is a clear and present danger.

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.

Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.

The people who need help are not the problem.

It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.
