I have said this on multiple occasions, but it won’t be the Epstein list that removes him from power.

SNAP isn't about "people who don't work." It's about people who don't get paid enough to live.

* Most working-age adults who receive SNAP are employed—but in jobs that pay poverty wages

Or that almost 40% of SNAP recipients are children?

And that Whites account for 37% of SNAP recipients?

Kid’s first protest. On the way home he said “I don’t see how that changes anything.” I said “did you hear all the people honking that they agree?” “Yeah.” “They felt less alone in their pain today. That’s not nothing.”

Unpaid and flying into a hurricane.
NOAA hurricane hunters flying aboard a P-3 Orion aircraft ("Kermit") are monitoring Hurricane Melissa as most aircraft steer clear. The storm poses a catastrophic threat to Jamaica and Haiti.

The crew are among the many federal workers working without pay during the US government shutdown.
