So the Trump administration lied to federal courts about its ability, authority, and willingness to continue to fund SNAP because it wanted to spend Halloween and Thanksgiving using hungry kids as pawns.

These people are monsters.

And none are Christian.

Jeffries: "Understand, until Donald Trump tells them what to do, Republicans in the House and Senate are going to be unwilling to find a bipartisan path forward because this version of the Republican Party, they don't work for the American people. They work for Donald Trump."

The complete inversion of morals on the right is not surprising but it's still shocking. Imagine being on the side of intentionally starving children.

A screenshot of a post on X by Tim Pool (@Timcast). The tweet says, “Ms Rachel is a demon who harms children. Keep your kids away from this shit.” Below it is a retweeted post from Complex Pop Culture about Ms. Rachel criticizing the government for cutting SNAP food aid. The attached image shows Ms. Rachel wearing a pink shirt and denim overalls, speaking animatedly with her hand raised. Two quotes from her Instagram post are featured: one says, “People who say they are Christian and want to cut SNAP, Jesus said to feed the hungry,” and the other says, “Imagine slashing SNAP, the program that helps children in the US not go hungry, while sending billions in weapons to another country to kill children.”
