He wants to kill Obamacare, but has no other plan. He is not satisfied with his deportation operation because his ICE agents are not abusive enough. He plans to continue murdering people in the Caribbean Sea because the law and these humans are of no concern to him. All this thanks to John Roberts.

A friendly reminder that 39% of SNAP recipients are seniors, 20% are children, and 12% are people with disabilities. 20,000 active duty soldiers, 200,000 National Guardsmen, and 1.1 million veterans are also on SNAP. Please stop saying it's just "people who need to get a job."

When you pay attention to the tons of evidence showing that immigrants commit fewer crimes, you see that the problem isn't immigrants. The problem is the people blaming immigrants and spreading lies and stereotypes about them.

I know a mom who has nice things like Coach purses and Ralph Lauren clothing. She had those items BEFORE she was forced to apply for assistance.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.

Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.

Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.

It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.

Q: What do you call it when many people in multiple events are deliberately killed on the open seas outside of a declaration of war?

A: Murder. Mass murder. Crimes against humanity.

Every Democrat should be saying this all day and every day.

The people using SNAP benefits are the working poor, the elderly, the disabled, and children. The Democrats need to pound this message home repeatedly. The president is starving people because he wants them to go hungry.

Mark this down:

On Monday, Trump will announce that he "saved" the SNAP program and people will get their food stamps for November. Republicans will claim that Democrats wanted people to starve but Trump made sure it didn't happen. The media will go along with them.

You shouldn’t have to choose between food and health care, but Republicans insist.
