NO child get's $300/MO from SNAP. The average is UNDER $180/mo. You try and feed your kids on $5/day Marco.

Democracy is not a spectator sport! 🇺🇦 @grrlscientist.bsky.social · 3d

MARCO RUBIO: government paying $300 per child every month to not work is socialism.

CHRISTOPHER INGRAHAM: we pay senators $15,000 per month to not work so I'm not sure what the objection is here.

Millions depend on SNAP-I am one of them. I will be hit hard next month but I am worried about the working mother with 2 or 3 kids. What will she do when Thanksgiving comes and her kids are not in school for lunch over the long weekend?
YOUR neighbors are on SNAP -you just don't know it.

I am a disabled senior (over 65) who works as a psychotherapist, and am on SNAP.
I hold a PhD but can only work part time. I am SO grateful for what I get from SNAP but please don't think I'm eating high end food. I shop at Walmart to make the money last-but it does NOT last the whole month.

SNAP&MEDICAID effect ALL of us not just poor.

Important information about November SNAP benefits.

I suspect some Americans are unaware of the Pre-World War II changes under Hitler.
Maybe they slept through World History.
Maybe they couldn't find it in a 280 character post on Twitter.

Speaker Johnson will NOT swear-in Rep Elect Adelita Grijalvva.
Why?
She is an extreme, left wing democrat, anti-MAGA, nutjob trying to singlehandedly destroy Trump and keep the govt in shutdown
OR
Is she's the 218th signer to the discharge petition for the Epstein Files 🤔
I'll wait...take your time.

People have WRONGLY normalized COVID believing "it's like the flu."
You will prob survive COVID.
However, w each infection your risk of #LONGCOVID ⏫.Your risk of disability ⏫.
It's not IF you get long covid, it's WHEN.

My patients have "normalized" covid: "it's Flu, no big deal."
They & ALL of their children have had covid 4,5, 7 times.
But for them it's so 2020.
I'm immunocomp, still in lockdown. 30yr daughter has #LongCovid neuropathy.

Long Covid is playing russian roulette w/ 5 bullets.
It's not IF, it's WHEN.

Mounting research shows that COVID-19 leaves its mark on the brain, including with significant drops in IQ scores

Two new high-profile studies add to the increasingly worrisome picture of how even mild cases of COVID-19 can have detrimental effects on brain health.
